Free as a Bird

During my road-trip that took me almost 14.000kms all around the South and the North Island of New Zealand, one part of the country that I particularily fell in love with was the Taranaki region, near New Plymouth, also home to the ‘SURF HIGHWAY’.  Due to its geographical background, Taranaki boasts some of the most consistent swell-statistics and thus surfing pretty much every day 🙂

Located right at the incredibly beautiful Mount Egmont, Taranaki is a very special place.  After all, at how many places in the World can you go surfing, kitesurfing and snowboarding in the SAME day?  I did it 🙂

Also check my Blog section for several posts on Taranaki, the Surf Highway, snowboarding up at Mount Egmont and more….

Have fun!
