Embarking on a mesmerizing 10-hour journey through New Zealand's Southern Alps, we decided to test the timeless saying that life is all about the journey, not just the destination.. Renowned for its panoramic windows, the TranzAlpine train treated us to a visual spectacle, weaving through the Canterbury Plains, ascending the majestic Southern Alps, and concluding its scenic route at the west coast's Greymouth.

The return journey offered fresh perspectives on sights like Lake Sarah, nestled between Mount Horrible and the Puketeraki Range. Despite exhaustion, this TranzAlpine adventure stands out as a highlight in our New Zealand chapter, and we extend our sincere thanks to Great Journeys & the TranzAlpine train for hosting us on this unforgettable journey.

As we bid farewell to 2023, a year that took us from the beaches of Mexico to the mountains of New Zealand, we express gratitude to all who joined us on this nomadic journey. Here's to more adventures and new horizons in the coming year. See you in 2024.

➤ ABOUT US: Hi! We’re Nick & Raychel, and we want to help people open their eyes to alternative living, whether that be teaching English online, moving to Cambodia, taking advantage of working holiday visas, or building a DIY stealthy camper van to live & work on the road. Nothing is off limits when adventure is the ultimate goal. After three years of living full time van life throught Canada, Mexico and the USA, we're now car camping our way through New Zealand in a Land Rover Discovery 1.

Our goal here is to bring you weekly content where we hope to inspire you to break free & live the life you desire. On this channel, we talk everything from finances to minimalism to working online to mindset and post a weekly vlog of our daily lives. We hope you join us on our journey to see the world, save money, live minimally, and most importantly, have fun.

So if you're looking for a channel about van life, alternative living, and budget travel, you're in the right place.
