The most southern point at New Zealands Northisland. It's more southern than Nelson and Picton at the Southisland. ⬇
There are exactly 250 steps on the stairs up to the lighthouse. I count it two times to be sure. Amazing view from above. Don't wanna go down. 😍Read more

I wasn't in, I was only driving to them and stand in front of a closed fence to see them. If I wanted to go closer to take pictures I had to pay 26$ and that was to much for a thing I'm not interested in. This is an abstruct art work, build to magnetise traveler to tell them something about the stars and how the polinasian people did their navigation. They also tell you something about maori cultur. But I'm really not interested in what someone built in their privat garden. That navigation stuff and maori cultur, I know about. But after all it's nice to see it shortly, even when I can't show it to you. 🗿Read more

Haha, luckiest thing ever!
I wanted to drive from Cape Palliser over the Stonehenge to Castlepoint. That was an 2,5h drive. It should be. I didn't had patrol anymore and I didn't saw any fuel station on the way. It were only 20min away from Castle Point, 20km. But my car said 'no', It has stopped. 🚙
Oh no, what should I do? I didn't had any traffic at all. I walked around to find traffic, but nothing. I sat in my car and was thinking about wich direction I should go. Where will be the first point I have traffic again? And suddenly, out of nowhere, there was a woman and asked me if she could help me. "Yea, maybe you could tell me where is the next phone cell? I need to call the AA, cause I don't have petrol anymore and no traffic." This woman must came from heaven."You can buy petrol from me. Gimme 30$ and I will give you a full gasoline canister. It's only a small one, but it will bring you till the next sfation." That sounds pretty nice, but I had no cash with me. But this woman had a cafe, so I could pay with card. 🎉
She gave me the adress of the next petrol station and her son filled the petrol in my car. It was the expensivest petrol I'd ever buyed, but I was so thankfull.
To handle the shock, I looked around 5 meters away in something that was a little city years ago.Read more

Today was a beachday. Totally chillout. I actually only wanted do to a short stop over at Castle Point, but how life works, I liked this place so much, that I decided to stay the rest of the day. Chillin at the beach, visit the lighthouse and go for a swim. I relaxed so hard, that I'm sunburned over my hole body. The cold water felt so good at my skin. I didn't need a towel. 😂
Locals come here for drifting donuts or fishing. 🎣 Swimming too of corse. 🌊
Now I know why everybody say that's like paradise. 🌴
At the Castle Point Beach were surfers, but the wave tubes wasn't as good as the last days. 🏄Read more

Far, far away. In a unknown village. There is a big place with much space for campers. So much gras I'd never seen before at a campground. This one has got clean flush toilets and a tab. Something I don't see often in my newly lifestyle. 😂 And then there was only one other van. Just a girl in it. I thought that is cool, so we can talk about something. It was 8 o'clock when I arrived. She sat at the table and eaten dinner. As she saw me, she stand up to do her dishes and go back into her car and closed everything. No hello, nothing. She didn't even looked at me. Hm.
But at that bis grassy place beneath the campground, on something that used to be a rugby field for kids before, were so many sheeps and they were so handsome. So I had a great evening with cute little sheeps. 🐑Read more

I was so hungry at this time, cause I didn't had breakfast. So I had my lunch a bit earlier. I did pancakes and ate it with nutella, banana and cinnamon. Yummi.
There was a couple chilling in their car and came around as they see me cooking. 🍳
They chilled with me and we spoke aboute everything and nothing. They live there and recommended me to do some sightseeing in Napier. They were very friendly, it was nice to meet them.Read more

Yea, it happend again. My tank was half full as I started the was from Gisborne to Te Araroa. Maybe 20km before Te Araroa the tank lighted up. Whaat? That was only a 2h drive. Never mind, there's a fuel station. Haha, I thought, but it didn't worked. I didn't had traffic at all. But my app said there should be another one in this village. It was a campground, no fuel station. Bad i asked the owner of that campground where is the next petrol station. As he asked wich directiom, I answerd: "Anywhere, I need the closest.'' A 10min drive just over the hill should be the next one, but I couldn't find it. That village had a post station, a lotto station and 3 houses. No petrol. The next station, my app said, was 34km away. But I had to get there anyway, so I moved on. 50 to 70 km/h. 1h drive. Zitternd the whole time. Oh I was so aggressive. You can't imagine how I was am fluchen. 😈😂
At the end I did it. I got to that station. And then..
My credit card didn't work. Oh no. A man told me it don't accept european cards. WHAAT?? What the f*cking shit is that? I can pay EVERYWHERE with my credit card, at the whole world. That's the reason I have it. Why not? Oh. Still no traffic. I even couldn't call the AA if I wanted to. And then I expected I've got another card. It's the same german bank, but to try it wouldn't make the situation worse. And what the hell? It works! Can you imagine? 😂
Crazy shit!
Still don't getting it..Read more

Ou, this was a funny one. Its a cow paddock and yea, it is. Thats it. Driving a 12km gravelroad with all that stock in your way to a paddock and sleeping beneath cows and horses. 🐄 No fence. The stock can run around like it wants to and is just happy. 🐴 But it were difficult to get there, cause there were 2 sleeping cows in my way and didn't want to stand up. 😂Read more
