New Zealand’s South Island Is Heaven On Earth
During my travels throughout the world, I would rank New Zealand as my favorite place on Earth, the sights and wonders of the South Island have to be seen to be believed. Hidden beaches, grand mountain vistas, spectacular lakes and rustic buildings all add to the charm of this paradise.
These images I captured during my year spent travelling in this amazing country try to encapsulate the beautiful nature I experienced.

I travel around NZ last 7 months! It's the most stunning country in the world! Especially South Island!

Amazing, sometimes you forget how beautiful our little country is. And to think most of those shots are on my doorstep. I really need to be more of a tourist in my own country.

Wow, stunning photos! I feel very lucky to live in such a beautiful place.

Blessed to live in the beautiful South Island of New Zealand. You can't visit everywhere but you did miss the beautiful Clutha Valley, New Zealand's best kept secret. See you next time - check out Tuapeka Ferry song on you tube. The last remaining water driven ferry in the Southern Hemesphire.

We're hoping to move out there once my husband retires. The history, culture, views, education and so much more draws us to New Zealand.
