How lucky are we to be able to live in a time where we can indulge in travel while staying in such comfort? Travel is my passion and I’ve been a world wanderer my entire life. I’m currently wandering back in my home country of New Zealand, after living overseas for the last 25 years. It’s so good to be back and I’m very grateful to be surrounded by such natural beauty.

It's a very quiet neighbourhood as it's in a light commercial area, with mainly storage lock ups and a few apartments. About 10 minutes' walk to Turangi township, and 20 minutes drive to the Ketetahi Trailhead on the Tongariro Alpine Crossing. Whakapapa ski fields are less than 40 minutes drive. World famous fishing, kayaking and white water rafting in the amazing Tongariro River just a couple of minutes drive or Lake Taupo make this an unrivaled year-round destination.
