YouTube Video Description

ThisOur 2 months in New Zealand were amazing! The experiences! Wine! Gorgeous nature! Surreal water colors! We can't wait to show you! After a once-in-a-lifetime volcanic experience in Rotorua, we "went back in time" in Napier, and basked in the powerful beauty of the sea in Wellington. Then we headed south to Christchurch for great gardens, food & wine, then to a real castle and adorable wild penguins in Dunedin. In Queenstown we visited an ice bar and almost got stranded on a wine hike, then found beautiful Lake Tekapo (tips on the dark sky park experience!). Finally, we flew on the #1 airline in the world to the #1 airport in the world and stayed at the #1 airport hotel in the world-how did we do it virtually for free?! We'll tell you! And we'll show you the beautiful Changi Airport Jewell and butterfly garden. Then we'll give you a sneak peak of our first week in Bali at the Hyatt Regency-you know it-for free! This video contains our budget and spending for months 7 & 8 of our nomad lifestyle. If you haven't yet watched our first month in New Zealand-on Waiheke Island-be sure to check it out here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EZKPsKk0X1M That video covers our nomad budget for months 5 & 6.
