New Zealand is one of our favorite countries, a place we would love to live one day. While there we were fascinated by penguins. At one viewing spot, near Omaru, we were told to be very quiet, turn off cell phones, don’t make any quick movements because they were shy birds. What a laugh we all had when, after 45minutes of fruitless scanning the brush for a sighting, someone pointed out that the penguin was hanging out right next to the viewing platform…NOT hiding in the bush!
We have spent 30 years on the road and traveled to more than 40 countries across five continents. After fourteen months backpacking around the world and years living in Puerto Vallarta, we now help midlife travelers plan the big trip they keep talking about.
