🌍 Hello Athens! Jet lag can’t undermine this view from my hotel balcony! 😍 Stunning, isn’t it?! Though tomorrow is a work day, I can’t say I’m minding so much! 😉 #apathlesstaken #athens #acropolisatnight #findyourpath #wanderlust #instatravelgram #traveljunkie #travel #travelgram #inpursuitofgoddesses #goddessesofancientgreece #greekgoddess #jetlaggedandlovingit 🌏 Birth Month Day 26: From below ground to well above, and a beautiful day to boot! ☀️ A “Retreat” day, complete with surfing 🏄‍♀️, yoga 🧘‍♀️ , and a massage 💆, with this as the back drop. 🏖 ✨ #apathlesstaken #findyourpath #birthmonthadventure #purenewzealand #nzmustdo #newzealandadventure #newzealandtravel #travelnewzealand #selfcaretravel #surfescape #solscape 🌏 Birth Month Day 25: From jumping off bridges to abseiling, zip lining, wading, tubing, and climbing the occasional waterfall... underground. While the stars dazzled last night, today I had the surreal experience of seeing stars underground in Waitomo’s glow worm caves. They were so bright, the bluish glow reflected in the dark water. ✨ #apathlesstaken #findyourpath #birthmonthadventure #purenewzealand #nzmustdo #newzealandadventure #travelnewzealand #newzealandtravel #instatravelgram #traveljunkie #wanderlust #travel #adventuretravel #caving #cavingadventure #undergroundadventures #waitomocaves #blackabyss #blackwaterrafting 🌏 Birth Month Day 24: After an adrenaline packed few days, it’s time to chill... campfire 🔥, sunsets 🌅, wine 🍷 , and a good book 📖 . And more stars 🌌 than I’ve ever seen. A magical night glamping ⛺️ in Waitomo brought my pulse back to normal. ✨ #apathlesstaken #findyourpath #birthmonthadventure #purenewzealand #nzmustdo #newzealandadventure #newzealandtravel #travelnewzealand #instatravelgram #traveljunkie #wanderlust #sunsetsandcampfires #quiettime #momentofzen #waitomoglamping 🌏 Birth Month Day 23, Part 2: Go big or go home. 🧶 At 134 meters, New Zealand’s highest bungy jump, Nevis had me shaking my bead “no”... and then I did it anyway. 😳 Video: @ajhackettbungynz ✨ #birthmonthadventure #purenewzealand #nzmustdo #newzealandadventure #travelnewzealand #newzealandtravel #instatravelgram #traveljunkie #wanderlust #travel #adventuretravel #adrenalinejunkie #thrillseeker #adventurecapitaloftheworld #queenstownnz #nevisbungy #ajhackett #findyourpath #apathlesstaken 🌏 Birth Month Day 23, Part 1: 🥝 Kiwi ingenuity at its best! The original bungy at Karawau Bridge is the go-to for those seeking a thrill. 🧶 And look, I think my form is improving!

Backwards. Mom, dad - don’t watch! 😮😬😳 Video: @shotovercanyonswing ✨ #birthmonthadventure #purenewzealand #nzmustdo #newzealandadventure #travelnewzealand #newzealandtravel #instatravelgram #traveljunkie #wanderlust #travel #adrenalinejunkie #adventurecapitaloftheworld #shotovercanyonswing #jumpingoffcliffs #canyonswing #escapethepolarvortex #findyourpath #apathlesstaken 🌏Birth Month Day 21: 🍷 Drinks with a view. A stunning day in Queenstown meant lunch along the water, a gondola ride for spectacular panoramas 🚠, a bit of walking 🥾 and luging to get the blood pumping... and of course, the icing on the cake, drinks and dinner as the sun set. 🌄 Pure bliss. ☺️ ✨ #birthmonthadventure #purenewzealand #nzmustdo #newzealandadventure #travelnewzealand #newzealandtravel #instatravelgram #traveljunkie #wanderlust #travel #skylinequeenstown #skylinegondola #winewithaview #escapethepolarvortex #apathlesstaken #findyourpath 🌏Birth Month Day 20: A moody and mesmerizing cruise in Milford Sound (actually a fjord). This was one of those things that everyone said I had to do, it’s a must, and I didn’t truly believe that. But I shrugged, booked a cruise, and played along. In the end, you couldn’t drag me away... the fjords has cast a spell. 🌫 Maybe it was the mists, maybe it was the hundreds of waterfalls, maybe it was the dramatic landscape... or maybe it was knowing that every day, the fjords show themselves differently. Whatever it is, I’m a true convert. Milford Sound is a “must” in my book. ✨ #birthmonthadventure #purenewzealand #nzmustdo #newzealandadventure #travelnewzealand #newzealandtravel #instatravelgram #traveljunkie #wanderlust #travel #findyourpath #apathlesstaken #milfordsound #southerndiscoveries #fiordland #fiordlandnationalpark 🌏 Birth Month Day 19: The bluest of vibrant blues with a clear blue sky and crystal clear waters of Lake Wakatipu. 💎 A perfect day for a drive from Queenstown and the Remarkables to Te Anau and Fiordlands! Just bring sunglasses - the brilliance is blinding! 😎 ✨ #apathlesstaken #findyourpath #birthmonthadventure #purenewzealand #nzmustdo #newzealandadventure #travelnewzealand #newzealandtravel #escapethepolarvortex #instatravelgram #traveljunkie #wanderlust #wanderful #travel #lakewakatipu #newzealandroadtrip 🌏 Birth Month Day 18: An impromptu stop in Wanaka made for a very happy woman! 🥰 So many tracks at my doorstep 🥾, but limited time sent me packing to Mount Iron. 🗻 I could have spent all afternoon watching the sun and clouds vie for space over Lake Wanaka. From glaciers and rain forests to lakes and rain shadows in a span of a few hours - I’m getting geological whiplash! 🥴 (And I’m loving it!) 😍 ✨ #apathlesstaken #findyourpath #birthmonthadventure #purenewzealand #nzmustdo #travelnewzealand #newzealandtravel #escapethepolarvortex #instatravelgram #traveljunkie #wanderlust #wanderful #sheswanderful #travel #wanaka #mountiron 🌏 Birth Month Day 17: A serene morning kayaking 🛶 on Lake Mapourika and a quiet walk through the Okarito Sanctuary with Glacier Country Kayaks. 🦜 The clouds even parted a bit to give a stunning view of the glaciers! 🏔 ✨ #apathlesstaken #findyourpath #birthmonthadventure #purenewzealand #nzmustdo #newzealandadventure #travelnewzealand #newzealandtravel #escapethepolarvortex #instatravelgram #traveljunkie #wanderlust #wanderful #sheswanderful #travel #glaciercountrykayaks #lakemapourika #franzjosef #franzjosefglacier 🌏 Birth Month Day 16: A truly epic day of 🚁 heli-hiking 🥾with Franz Josef Glacier Guides! We made it out before the weather worsened, and spent three hours winding our way through 💎 blue ice mazes and along crevasses, and listening for the tell tale crack of an ice fall. ❄️ ✨ #birthmonthadventure #purenewzealand #nzmustdo #newzealandadventure #travelnewzealand #newzealandtravel #escapethepolarvortex #apathlesstaken #findyourpath #instatravelgram #traveljunkie #wanderlust #wanderful #sheswanderful #travel #helihike #franzjosefglacierguides #franzjosefglacier #wannawinarefund 🌏 Birth Month Day 15: A rainy day 🌧 crossing the Southern Alps 🏔 on the TranzAlpine 🚞. This Great Journey is stunning in any weather though - watching the interplay of light and shadow, the sun slipping through the clouds, and the scenery shifting from the flat plains to the foothills and braided rivers to mountains peaking through the mist is mesmerizing. 😍 ✨ #birthmonthadventure #purenewzealand #nzmustdo #newzealandadventure #newzealandtravel #travelnewzealand #instatravelgram #traveljunkie #wanderlust #travel #greatjourneysofnz #tranzalpinetrain #traintravel #escapethepolarvortex #apathlesstaken #findyourpath 🌏 Birth Month Day 14: Christchurch is on the move! The (New) Shaky City wowed me at every turn - from vibrant cafes ☕️ to a bustling riverside, street markets and botanical gardens 🌺, hopping live music 🎼 and peaceful punting 🛶, a respect for the old and excitement of the new... Christchurch has much to be proud of. This is one city I’m looking forward to visiting again and again in the coming years. ✨ #birthmonthadventure #purenewzealand #nzmustdo #newzealandadventure #christchurchnz #christchurchtram #newregentstreet #escapethepolarvortex #apathlesstaken #findyourpath 🌏 Birthday Month Day 13: No filter needed on the Coastal Pacific Rail 🚞 from Picton to Christchurch. Though the Kaikoura area is particularly stunning. I’m so content to spend the day first on the water with the InterIslander Ferry 🛥 , then along the coast with the Coastal Pacific. Life is good. 😌 ✨ #birthmonthadventure #purenewzealand #nzmustdo #newzealandadventure #coastalpacifictrain #greatjourneysofnz #travelbytrain #traintravel #escapethepolarvortex #apathlesstaken #findyourpath 🌏 Birth Month Day 12: Te Papa, New Zealand’s national museum, is a must see in Wellington. The exhibits on the arrival of Maori in Aotearoa 🛶, Maori culture, European immigration, and the Treaty of Waitangi were fascinating education. This new marae, for all people of New Zealand, was a beautiful representation of the diversity of these islands. ✨ #birthmonthadventure #purenewzealand #nzmustdo #newzealandadventure #wellington #tepapa #escapethepolarvortex #apathlesstaken #findyourpath 🌏 Birth Month Day 11: Took it a bit easier in Wellington ☕️, wandering the streets of this cool little capital just to see what I’d come across. Then there was this view, followed by a long, peaceful stroll through the Botanical Gardens🌺. A perfect, chill day. 😌 ✨ #birthmonthadventure #purenewzealand #nzmustdo #newzealandadventure #wellington #wellingtoncablecar #escapethepolarvortex #apathlesstaken #findyourpath 🌏 Birth Month Day 10 Encore: If your friends all jumped off a cliff, would you?” 😏 Apparently, I’m the friend our mothers warned us about. ✨ #birthmonthadventure #purenewzealand #nzmustdo #newzealandadventure #escapethepolarvortex #ifyourfriendsjumpedoffacliffwouldyou #taupo #taupobungy #apathlesstaken #findyourpath Video Credit: @tim51087 🌏 Birth Month Day 10: Too much happened today, so let’s just start with the morning, shall we? 🥾 Kicked things off with the two hour Taranaki Falls walk followed by a 👗 wardrobe change for high tea with bubbles! 🥂 Wardrobe change back into 🥾 hiking clothes for a stop at the easily accessible Tawhai Falls... but the wardrobe change was a good call for what would come later 😉... stay tuned! 📻 ✨ #birthmonthadventure #purenewzealand #nzmustdo #newzealandadventure #taranakifalls #tawhaifalls #hightea #chateautongariro #bubbles #escapethepolarvortex #apathlesstaken #findyourpath
