Trips in New Zealand - Part 1: Searching

These days I have been searching for places to visit in New Zealand as I’m planning to travel soon. How I had to stay in Takapuna waiting few hours between the two jobs I went to the Library to do my searches.

There are many ways to travel around all New Zealand:

- Buying a bus pass, which takes you to every place in the bus itinerary;
- To rent a car or a campervan/motorhome;
- Buying a car; and
- Buying flights over the main cities.

I haven’t decided yet which one I will do it. I did my budget plan thinking about buying a bus pass. It’s really expensive, though. Around $1500 for a month, traveling over all New Zealand.

This weekend, I had another idea. As I had seen on Internet, that there are Relocation transport*, for free or a very cheap fare, I thought about going to the South Island first and get a Motorhome. So I could travel for around one month paying $1/day for the Motorhome.

I looked on internet, how much would cost a flight to Christchurch (place where it has the relocation Motorhome). I found one, for $49 (one way). Still undecided, I didn’t know what to do. Anyway, I bought it. It was so cheap, that I couldn’t miss the opportunity.

Everything till now is just plans. But in a month later I will be traveling and no more work!! Enough of Hospitality jobs!!!

My plans consists of:

- Working till 14th of November;
- Traveling from 15th till 12th of December;
- Going back to Brazil on 14th of December; and
- On January … I will tell you when I have everything done!!! Still plans!! Lol..

My time around Oceania is finishing … I just have to say that I have been enjoying and learning a lot!! A lot of things is going to happen yet.
