Last August I arrived in New Zealand, bright-eyed, bushy-tailed and pretty jetlagged, and today we leave. I've lived and worked in this beautiful country for just 9 months but I've taken hundreds of pictures, was taught the Haka (to which I didn't do justice), caught a glimpse of orcas, BBQ'd for Christmas, driven a van (!), and met amazing people - so this isn't a goodbye merely a see you soon! ❤️ thanks to Naomi, Harrison and @johanna_of_arc for the chocolate and zoo adventures, to @kathrynpumphrey, @dc_simon_ @catherineputt @missbethanycollins @jazzkrabbe for being the best travelling family I could have wished for, I have the best memories of our hysterical laughter and crazy dancing, to my darling @marie.sal_ for chasing each other around the country and always finding our way back together for tea and cake 🍰, to Laura (and Rodri 😍) for our weekly Mexican dates and too many tequilas, to @remco.89 you are the danger, to my Marion lovelies @caittyler @canellequiri @elliesmeets and Ben I can't wait to see you again, to @sidilse and @linny_4 I'll miss the laughs, the teamwork and a cheeky French toast lunch, @keegan_thomas7 for the intense film chats and @gracie_amitrano @lebondani_ and @jodiewarren for the hilarious wine gossips, @beachhouseandkiosk for the quiz every afternoon, @edwinclmnt for the best roadtrips and kinda dangerous fire twirling and I can't wait to do it all again in the UK 🤘🏻, to @itsjennacidebaby @liammurray27 @j_bellajade_adventures @richreiss and @franc.emily you were my home away from home, I will miss the perplexing YouTube videos 😂❤️ to @peahs and @livadams_ for the beach trips, Six60 and nearly losing the car keys, to @vve_chloe for Harry Potter haha ⚡ to the lockdown family @pip28 @oriol_sans @annac.ma @willroberts_ and David for the racing demon rage and où est la bouche and to the person I met on my second day in NZ, @gaylordszt the king of the chocolate cake and shadow pictures, these last few months with you have been a dream and I can't wait for the future ❤️ Goodbye to the Land of the Long Cloud, it's been a pleasure 💕 #newzealand #travel

An Ode to windy Welly 🌪️ So many sunrises, margaritas, jugs of sangria, amazing restaurants (plus now best friends with the chef 👀) tacos 🌮, beach trips, BBQs, and all those hilarious, weird, wonderful people who have made my time here so special 💘 Now a new adventure awaits! #wellington #travel #newzealand #foodblogfeed #foodblogger #imoffonanadventure

On your days off some people might go for brunch, go for drinks, get out of town, I on the other hand baked these cheese scones twice. Recipe on my blog link in bio and soon you'll be neglecting your social life to bake these scones everyday too 😏🤤 #cheesescones #whatsociallife #foodblogger #feedfeed #foodblogfeed #newzealand

When in NZ find a nice boy who's happy for you to sit on his lap for an hour and would rather look at you than the beautiful view 💕☺️ @gaylordszt (📸: @elliesmeets @caittyler )

Oh December, what a merry month you were, Christmas Day feast with da bros / South Island beach dreams (before those horrific burn lines appeared 😬) / ma bae's masterpiece, a Bruce Bogtrotter chocolate cake covered in strawberries / partying with this lovely mad crew at work / Christmas croissant pudding with nectarines and blueberries / sunsets and fireworks, and starting 2020 with the first of many drunken nights with this wonderful human 🌹 @gaylordszt #newzealandchristmas #travel #wellington #brucebogtrottercake #breadandbutterpudding #newyear

I feel like I'm cheating on traditional Yuletide food with all these flirty strawberries and apricots around. Strawberries at Christmas time, whatever next. Chocolate chip panettone, Christmas cake ice cream bedecked with roasted summer fruit, recipe now up on my blog 🍓🎄 link in bio #newzealandchristmas #summerbreakfast #christmascake #itfeelslikejune🎄🎅🏼
