Buffet of Landscapes Perfect Backdrop for Escape

New Zealand’s “veritable buffet of landscapes … each one painted with a unique palate of colour” provided the perfect setting for Huffington Post travel writer Charli Moore’s “freedom escape”.

“Having just completed an epic 18-month road trip taking in the sights and sounds of Australia’s often overlooked but very friendly neighbour, I’ve collated some of my favorite snapshots from the Land of the Long White Cloud,” Moore explains.

“From Cape Reinga at New Zealand’s most northerly tip to Stewart Island off the south coast, it was nature that took the reign and dictated my route.

“Please be warned that the images may inspire you to ‘down tools’ and book a flight to Middle Earth immediately.”
