We drove from Raglan down to Wellington over a few days while doing a practice run of our student directed travel. We spent a day in a very culturally significant museum in Wellington before we departed towards the South Island.
What have been the three highlights of the week?
🌎 The first highlight of the week was on our first day of the practice student directed travel. We had a zero day where we didn’t do anything at all, which may sound a little boring but trust me everyone enjoyed it.
😳 The second highlight of the week was getting a major adrenaline rush when we took a leap of faith off of the top of a 20ft pole on to a trapeze bar.
🪨 The third highlight were all of the beautiful sights we saw while caving which was a very challenging but rewarding experience for everyone!
Growth comes with challenge – what are some of the challenges you’ve overcome this week?
The challenge this week was having to figure out how to do everything ourselves with little help from our OEs.
What’s coming up next week?
Next week we will be beginning our adventure backpacking and kayak packing through the Abel Tasman national park! We are looking forward to seeing some beautiful sights and amazing wildlife!
