095: Exploring the South Island for the First Time as a Kiwi on a 7 Day Road Trip with Hamish McColl

Hamish McColl, a North Islander from Whangamata, had never ventured to the South Island until his honeymoon. In this episode, Hamish shares his week long road trip from Queenstown to Christchurch. He talks about experiencing beautiful sunrises at Lake Wakatipu to epic 4WD adventures at Tasman Glacier, all while navigating the quirks of campervan life, including a funny story when emptying the wastewater. Hamish shares advice around picking the right rental, along with key locations to visit along the route. After that adventure, Hamish was inspired to trade his $630/week home-rental for a caravan trailer and life on the road with his wife and two kids.
