Kia Ora!
It’s been a rollercoaster ride since we landed in Christchurch New Zealand. We had our first few days of orientation while exploring the city. After losing a few group members and enduring the cyclone we hiked to an 80 million year old cave, went to the beach and met many awesome locals along the way. We stayed a few days near Nelson at Whenua Iti Outdoors then ventured off on to a 17 Km hike into the Abel Tasman, one of New Zealand’s top 7 walks. We battled through physical and emotional challenges and came together as a group, now stronger than ever we make our way to Wellington.
