Returning Chubby:
Our final drive with Chubby towards Auckland was a bit sad, he had been our trusted companion for two weeks. We were ready to have a bit more space and a bathroom again, but we couldn’t have had a better camper, with our budget and booking late. Sure there is room for improvement, like a fridge and more space, but that’s for another adventure - maybe South Island?
We had a small crack in our windscreen, but not surprising considering the gravel on unsealed roads in NZ, but luckily it was all good due to our “ No worries mate” insurance.
Auckland 🏙️: Then we made our way to our Airbnb in Auckland, in the prime location under the sky tower. After a little laundry break, we made our way up the tower. The view was amazing and it was really fun to watch people do the “ sky jump”. Jeroen has a little fear of heights so he stayed a bit further away from the edge. In the evening Charly had a surprise date night planned, at the 360 degree turning Orbit restaurant at the 52nd floor of the sky tower. We were lucky having a window seat and indulged in a really delicious 3 course meal.
Last day in Auckland:
Most of our day was spent packing, but we also had a stroll to the Harbour. The capital city was pretty quiet and the weather was sunny. In the evening we tried the best dumplings from a little Chinese shop next to our Airbnb and then finished watching Lord of the rings 2: Two towers.
It’s the final countdown - do do doooh doo 🎶
We woke up a bit sad knowing this is our last day of traveling. We feel so lucky to have been able to go on this adventure together.
Vietnam - Cambodia - Thailand - Singapore - Indonesia - New Zealand.
Now it’s time to go back home, which we are also looking forward to. Less to working, but moving in together soon will be a new adventure.
We struggled a bit with our booking as we couldn’t select seats for the first segment. Since it’s almost 12 hours having extended leg space was quite important for Jeroen.
Luckily we were able to purchase new seats once we were at the airport so all is well.

Broke, but rich in memories.
See you soon ❤️
