Kia ora! Ko Lee ahau.

I have visited New Zealand on and off for the last 45 years (with 34 of those being off). On recent trips to the country I have taken my love of travelling, tramping (hiking), and photography to new heights, and have documented the most recent journeys as blogs which have turned into books:

  • Te Wai Pounamu Revisited (2019, left), which is available directly from the printer, epubli for €29.99, and soon also from other online bookstores;
  • Journey to Te Ika-a-Maui (2017, right), also available directly from the printer, epubli, or also from hugendubel for €36.99;
  • Voyage to Te Wai Pounamu (2014, below), available internationally where all good books are sold, and via hugendubel, the paperback for €43.90; the Kindle version is somewhat cheaper, but much less impressive.

In all cases a limited set of pages can be previewed.

Furthermore, ebook versions of Journey for Kindle and other ebook readers can be downloaded for a donation here. Enjoy!

Or find me on Facebook.

Kiwi VII is the blog to the 2019 trip to the North Island of New Zealand, at first detailing plans and preparations for the trip, later publishing detailed diary entries of how it worked out. Publication schedule is Tuesdays and Thursdays at 1200 UTC.

The goal is to publish a book with this title in 2021.

A note on prices mentioned in the blog: These were, of course, only valid on the day I visited the attraction, ate at the restaurant or stayed at the hostel/camp site/Doc hut/host, and are outside of my control.

Ka kite anō!
