NEW ZEALAND


New Zealand

New Zealand is a country on the edge of the world, the home of the hobbits and one of the best countries to live in all ratings. These are beautiful mountains, blue transparent lakes, forests of the Jurassic period, volcanoes and geysers. A place where people, penguins and seals calmly exist side by side and absolutely do not interfere with each other. This is really the perfect place for a dream trip! It was with this thought that the preparation for the trip began.

So New Zealand, what do we know about her? The main territory of the country is located on two islands: the Southern Alps are located on the southern island and the highest point of the island is Mount Cook (3754 m); the northern island is warmer, there are main pastures and green hilly meadows. The country's population is 4.5 million people (less than in Kiev), most of whom live in two cities: Wellington (the capital) and Auckland (the largest and most populous city in the country).
Хоббитания


Send a bit of a long flight and change of time zone, rented a car and went to see the beauty. The roads of New Zealand, by the way, are worthy of the highest praise. Through lakes Javea and Wanaka left on the coast of the Tasman Sea. Big waves, black sand, huge seagulls sitting on stones and calmly contemplating the sea - an impressive sight!
We crossed the island from west to east along a beautiful road through a pass in the Southern Alps 
and drove to the Pacific coast. On the way, we met Kia parrots who go after people and beg for food. 
We recommend not to be “led” to their requests: they become lazy and do not want to get food on their
 own.

Along the coast of the Pacific Ocean we reached the edge of the southern island. Seals on the way, seals
 have eclipsed all the delight of the scenery. Just in the middle of a small town, on the rocky coast, these
 cute creatures crawl out to bask in the sun and sleep. And people do not interfere with them at all!

From one island to another can be reached by ferry through a very beautiful bay. Three hours of travel fly by.
Brief advice for those who are going to New Zealand:
It should be borne in mind that everything closes early. At 20:00 close reception in most hotels and motels. Cafes and restaurants are open until 18:00 (with the exception of large cities). Pubs and bars open late. New Zealand cuisine is a mix of English and American: puddings, burgers, french fries and large portions. It is very safe here. You can leave the phone on the bench, and no one will take it. People are kind and responsive, but their focus is difficult to understand, especially on the South Island.
In this country you fall in love already from the window of the plane. Every 
minute you smile, wonder and do not believe your own eyes. If there is even
 a tiny opportunity to visit New Zealand, do not miss this chance. And if the
 opportunity is not there, create it and fly to New Zealand! Believe me, 
it's worth it.

Traveling to Ireland

Traveling to Ireland: breweries and pubs, castles and lakes, flowering gardens and luxurious architecture. Anyone who thinks that in Ireland, in addition to cheerful beer houses, there is nothing to see, he is greatly mistaken. Of course, the cult of beer and pubs is pronounced here, but this is not the only property of the Irish. Almost all the main attractions of the country are located in the territory of its capital Dublin or not far from it.  In Dublin, bypassing the topic of pubs still does not work out, since they are here at every turn, and two identical ones cannot be found. Names, stained glass, collections of beer, details of interior decoration are everywhere different. In addition to the interesting interior and beer, the traditional Irish pub is the sound of a violin, guitar and bagpipes.  But the pubs can be left for the evening, visiting the Guinness Brewery or visiting an entire pub quarter, and in the afternoon you can begin exploring other attractio...
