I am back in Wellington at the moment after a 5 day trip to Auckland and the Bay of Islands.ย While I would love to create a detailed update to my trip, I have an immediate trip to the South Island. So please enjoy a short photo highlight of my trip, and I will reflect and update after I arrive back home in 10 days time.

Living life on the edge.
