- A month traveling around New Zealand's south and north islands - I was sent on a GoPro shoot for a 5 day kayak trip and I decided to stay 2 weeks longer to meet up with friends and roadtrip around the country.

Dear Carlos,
As a kiwi who's lived on this tiny little Island in the south pacific my entire life I guess I just haven't thought about how much I take for granted. The ski slopes that are only a 4 hour drive away, the beautiful surf beaches that line our coasts or the seemingly endless forests and national parks were always just the norm for me. I never really understood how beautiful this country was, even when we saw tourists from all over going to the top of Mt Eden in awe of the "nature" and "wildlife" up there (Just some grass and a few birds.) So when I see someone who has come to this place and appreciates it as much as you have, it gives me a better appreciation of how beautiful it is and how lucky I am to have lived here all my life. So for that Carlos, I thank you from the bottom of my heart. From a stranger on the internet, Have an amazing day.
It's Always incredible how foreigners can change our view on our very own country. I spended all my life in Paris and I was amazed by some tourist videos
Bro I'm a kiwi an I can agree
Andre like the comment mate, but the North Island is 114 thousand square kms, its the 14th biggest island in world( the South Island is the 12th). Since there are thought to be around 11000 inhabited islands, the two main island of the country are far far from being "tiny little islands".
Good times had by you guys.. awesome you had an experience worth remembering in my country of NZ 👍
Im the 100th like of this comment
Norway, Iceland and New Zealand are definitely must to travel places :D.
Ok
Been to all of them and ur right
dude, are you me?
Yes, you're definitely right!!!
And don't forget to go to Scotland too
When we watch these kind of videos there two main fellings that we must express: 1) feeling depressed, because your life is not as cool as their lifes are 2) feeling inspired and encourage yourself to do the same and experience the best adventures. I choose option two.
Two at same

Sometimes I wonder why tourists always are amazed by nz cause I’ve lived here all my life that I’ve just gotten used to all the beautiful scenery and endless beaches, this video really had me grateful for what I’ve taken for granted my whole life
I just came back from backpacking through New Zealand and this video made me tear up because I just miss it so much. Thank you for posting.
Yea nz is beautiful we r known for our nature. Keep it cleann
Do you recognize some if these places, because i’ll be backpacking through NZ next year?😬
Thanks
Can u help me haw you make this trip
Abu_sa3do@hotmail.com
Honestly it made me tear up becuase it made me feel so proud. I am taking a gap year to explore my beautiful country for myself, cant wait
Same for me :D been there backpacking between 2017 and 2018 and just last night a rewatched all my pics and vids with my travelfriend
So nice to get all the memories back
For me the most beautiful country i visited so far
wow you captured our little new Zealand so beautifully
kristen hess New Zealand is epic in making good memories for backpackers, beautiful and dramatic scenery, ease to travel, friendly people, and sheep, there is really nothing small about New Zealand other than land size.
kristen hess i love newzealand
+Noble King New Zealand is bigger than the UK in land size. Not that small.
Love the simplicity and authenticity of the video! Keep it up Carlos
I'll be there someday, I believe it.
protect New Zealand its amazing
Yet he jumps the barrier and walks over the pancake rocks for the sake of a UA-cam video...
@@boxbird5723 Yet? What's your point Box?
Thank you kindly. We are. NZ is the Jewel of The Pacific. The Promised Paradise Land.
generally, we must protect Earth .
I watch this video every year when I feel down, to remember how beautiful life can be.
It's a bowl of fresh air.
Thank you for that !
same!!
Same!!
This is literally my dream. I want to just go exploring, with my friends all around the world, have fun, and just love life!
Be cool wouldn't it✌🏞🏜🏝🏕🌏🗺🏗🌍🏖
This is so beautiful! I only just discovered this video, but now I am so inspired to visit New Zealand. Amazing work!
really? i been wanting to visit nz for a while but this makes nz look meh
@@darkrider7625 meh? You’re a fucking idiot.
this give me nostalgia for memories I don't even have
I live in nz and don’t even know where these places are wtf
Get out there dude. The westcoast and the Abel Tasman park are amazing
You need to start travelling, best way is start from the top, cape reinga and make your way down :)
Same
Same
same
For me, doing this is the definition of feeling alive.
Trueeeeee
I just was on an exchange year in nz to be specific Tauranga and I miss it so much it became my home and it replaced my actual home Germany and I never felt so loved and encouraged as I did in New Zealand
I’m returning to my home Tauranga in December for 3 weeks and watching this makes me realise how blessed I am having so many friends over there which I know about are for true and friends for a life time
Thx for this beautiful video I’m so happy that I recognised most of these places
Can always find your way back to Aotearoa brother🌏✌🏖
This video makes me feel proud to be a New Zealander :)
Same
Amen to that

exactly .
I live in New Zealand, and I seriously think this is the best video I have seen of my home. Thanks! Congrats! Super pro.
Im thinking of going to NZ in september... but Im going alone. Is there a city you'd recommend? I mainly like to hike
Everywhere in NZ is good for hiking. Definitely visit Rotorua for the Maori culture, Geysers, and smoke everywhere. If you like Hiking look for information about Tongariro National Park :)
hey. can I join you
@@karraralkhalidi9489 I made a travel whatsapp group add me:+86 15107149073
I didn't know how beautiful my own country was, also your editing is lit
heyit's jemma 😂😂 It cracks me up cos when you live here you probably don't do half the things that tourists do aye 😁 this made me smile heaps tho!
heyit's jemma you live in a very beautiful country
Ave Pi it's probably because I never leave my room lmao
Ana's DaringAdventures thank you :)
heyit's jemma omg same , I live in whangarei and I've never been further south than Napier
nice edit. thumbs up for this guy 👍
Thumbs up for kim!
Yes , amazing Edits , I too agree to that
Absolutely beautiful, it so nice to see all of this. It reminds me all the good times from 2013 to 2017 in New Zealand. I am back there for a month in November 2019!
Tomáš Strnad did you enjoy November?
Can't believe that this video is almost 6 years. I remember watching it when I was a kid, this brought me memories of my journey, but soon I'll be there forever. Your videos return the spirit of me trying new things, and the challenges that await me are huge. Thank you so much for this video, it really helped me!
This is such an amazing video! The editing is fantastic and you have truely captured the essence of New Zealand 😍 this makes me proud to be a kiwi!!
Charlotte Fellingham The editing is amazing! Makes me proud to be a kiwi too 😊
Kiwi?
Lolly Hr Kiwi in this context refers to New Zealand, after our native bird, the Kiwi.
Charlotte Fellingham I'm going to live there
Charlotte Fellingham idk if it is in a other language too but in german,a kiwi is this green tasty fruit xD
mate youve done so well seeing so many parts of NZ that i never have
If you are from NZ you live in a beautiful country :)
So Epic! Loved every second it of! Keep it up
Yew! Thanks bud!
Can you please share the detailed rupture of this video? Thanks in advice!
There is so much happiness he reflects and that's why this video of NZ is so unique!
I live in New Zealand, and it still manages to amaze me!
welcome to nz, where we love jumping off stuff
Another beautiful video
veeoneeye oh hey jason love to you :p
This video is absolutely amazing. It warmed my heart. I'm from the Caribbean and moved to live in New Zealand for a year last year and did some of these things, but not all. Looking at your video has made me tell myself to make sure I return to do them all!
Yall are SUPER adventurous and that's very encouraging.
Makes me want to take more risks - especially for my channel!
Thank you.
Iam envy, not because the place, but you have friends to enjoy with
Stuck in quarantine for almost a year now. How amazing it is to feel the air in that mountains and glide through that waterfalls. What an amazing movie! This is what its like to live.
Love this video😍
Been homesick for awhile now😔 I’m from New Zealand and currently living in India for almost a year now....
Watching this video makes

SO beautiful videp ! With what you film ?
Trust me Dude,I enjoy watching ur videos, i loved and really really enjoy watching ur videos!! And the editing of yours videos are fantastic,keep it up, and pls give such more videos!!!! THANK YOU✌️
Glad you enjoyed it!
I have never been more inspired to go travel my own country. I live up north on the coast and it’s amazing to see how much NZ truely has to offer if you go out and explore it, this made my day. Saving for me starts now😂 This is my goal. Hope you loved it here and I can’t wait to experience the beauty myself!!❤️❤️
So true. Though we forget a lot of these experiences are free. If you put your mind to it. Do it.
Absolutely true, I’m definitely planning to do this as soon as I can. It doesn’t cost anything to go and explore your country as long as you can get gas in your car that’s all you need really, opening your mind to find spots and hills to climb. The views of our country definitely make it all worth it 🙌🏽
@@sweetpicklesxx I'd like to know where they found that mining cart. I know in karangaheke gorge there are old mining tunnels. A massive one to explore and a lot of tracks to explore. Down in waitomo there is a free track near the waitomo caves where you can explore caves etc.
Just doing the research is necessary. More so costs you time then anything
@FrazzyNZ Me too! That looks like good fun, and awesome thanks for that that’ll definitely come in handy when I go travelling! But yes so true, takes time to find all the amazing spots and cliffs. The views I reckon make it all worth it time and effort!
UA-cam algorithm decided to show me this after 2 years 😪
Same. just saw this now.
same haha
Me too
same bro
Same! 😂
That’s the kind of videos I love the most. Sharing your experience without much talking. Absolutely breathtaking video, you inspired me!
I've been watching tonnes of these blogs to get some insp. for my trip in a few weeks and this is by far the best one! Really cool filming and editing!!
Less talking, just pure adventures. Loved it! 👍
Finally a new video! Always makes me happy to see these!
I miss traveling so much, had to watch some traveling videos and put up my own as well 😱✈️
This is amazing! The way you were exploring the coolest place while enjoy the littlest things at the same time, like a water bottle flip, shows how there are different ways to live happily (and you did both!) I just felt joyful for watching this, thank you for such a nice movie filled with passion and love!
Went to New Zealand 2 years ago now was able to be lucky enough to stay there for 4 months and watched this video before I left. The whole time I was there I was determined to find this and jump off that bridge. Mission accomplished. That is a place called Hokitikia Gorge for all those wondering. Disclaimer: The water is freezing cold and there is huge rocks in that water, jump at your own risk. But I traveled from Michigan in the United States and nothing was stopping me from jumping off that bridge.
When you jump from that high, it really doesn't make much of a difference what's below you, cus if you were to hit it, you'd be dead anyway lol.
This video has triggered an incredible feeling in me that I instantly want to travel New Zealand.
Dude this is so sick!! You have a new subscriber

Wow such a nice Movie! 😍 New Zealand is the best place in the World.. So in love with New Zealand. I am right now on the south Island. So amazing! 🇦🇺❤️
Wait did you mean to put the Australian flag there?
I’m from new Zealand but moved to UK when I was 8. We go back every other year but with COVID we can’t this year, then next year I have a-levels and life gets too busy. I really miss it so much, for the most vivid memory of NZ is the beautiful smell of the pahootadowa at Christmas and the pine Forrest by the beaches. Great vid!
No politics, no CNN, no race wars, no crooked politician's, no daily shootings, and some of the most beautiful land on the planet. I have living in the US, it sucks. If you live in New Zealand you're living my dream.
@Matt Thank you brother, I'm going to school to be an electrician so hopefully I can bring something useful to your country and would of course treat it like my own :) btw your parents chose a cool name, us Matt B's are a sexy bunch. The more in New Zealand the better haha
Mate while I agree with u I also don't you get so many things like exclusive tv shows. U can count on there being whatchu want at the shops and yeah
But unless u aren't into that stuff then new Zealand is great even tho the stuff on that video were like places only tourists go to
@@Wat3976 so where do Locals go and what do they do
@@jommzom9715 we don't do all the touristy things as much as we seem to do it is abit like america just some stuff isn't as nice like the tv shows and stuff
Ive been to New Zealand for twice n i really2 loveeeeee NZ. I hope that i can go back to NZ 😊 There is something about NZ that make me fell in love
Very nice ! Love what you do ! We are working to make videos like yours !
Heaven Sand & Peanuts yesss
Yours are not so bad !
Thanks :)
Yep!! Another one here, love checking other people's videos
i make similar videos to this too, I've used that track in a video before too lol, lets keep this thread going, I'm going to check all your guys work out!
Oh i miss New Zealand. I've been there twice and each experience has never disappointed me. I missed my chance to go back again this year. Such a beautiful country
When I travelled to New Zealand we were on the South Island. So so so beautiful was able to go to Milford sound and kayak around. Also able to travel to many other small towns.
After watching this video, I decided i will definitely travel New Zealand this Year. Thanks for making an awesome video. I like it.
this is beautiful man!
Oh, Hey Ally! I watch your content, glad you like New Zealand
It’s a madness
Ally??!!
very cool videos carlos. your videos gives a sought of relaxation from the busy life . Ensure atleast one video for a month.
I'll try haha!
I live in nz and I've never done half the things you done...it inspired me to stop traveling over seas to other countries and take a look at my own
Thanks for sharing! I went backpacking in New Zealand for near 4 months and loved every bit of it. Brings back great memories
That was a great one mate! I love working with Gopros and you use them perfectly!
this video makes me want to go backpacking around new zealand
All jedi are welcome
I'm a kiwi living in Australia .... talk about making me homesick! :)
I'm speechless that how you teach me the meaning of life without saying any word.
This video makes me appreciate my country so much more
So happy I was born and live here
One of the greatest countries on the planet
Yeah
Amazing! My future wife and me will go to NZ for our honeymoon on this July from Spain and we can't wait more! We want to know where are places that appear at minute 4:40 and the place and activity that appear in minute 5:00.
I love your videos and I'm sure we will be in love of New Zealand!
Thanks for sharing
Did you go?
thank you for sharing such a beautiful side of our country
I know it’s over 2 years since you made this video but I have at least seen it 15+ times. It just have a so good energy. Thank you for making videos like this I appreciate you and what you are doing because it really makes my days so much better. Thank you again and take care.
I'm proud to be a New Zealander ☺️
What an adventure! You just moved NZ up a few notches on the where-should-i-go-next list :)
I also just want to say I appreciate the edits. I've been working to improve mine. I know it's a lot of work. great stuff
Thanks!
Anyone visited Pokenewzealand

I so want to go there, because of you :3
xD
so let's make a group and visit new Zealand.
Rose-e Shrestha i miss this too
Carlos, I really have to say „you took me with you with this video.“ I already have goosebumps. Amazing and a hard work 👌🏻
UA-cam's original adventure guys, wish you never stopped doing this! If i had the money I'd just give it to you for you to do this!
it's insane to me to consider how blessed we kiwis are to have this as our backyard
Epic film
THIS is exactly what I want! I'm saving already, but how do you not get lost in these beautiful natures?
I guess a drone really helps out , you can just fly it to find your way back
lyricsss same! did you already do it?
New Zealand is pretty small, with in a six hour walk you'll find people haha
@[LFA] bzRacing I live out west, you can get lost but if you literally walk in one direction you will find civilization.
I lovveeeee newzealand . Thankyou guys , you people truly reminded me of my recent trip to newzealand which was 1 month back. I had tears in my eyes while watching it. 💓💓💓 Thankyou
wow it’s so weird seeing your own country in a whole new light, living in NZ my whole life I guess I’m just used to all the beautiful greenery and stunning places but this has made me realise how much I’ve taken for granted, I’m going to go explore now :)
this honestly gives me chills, amazing!
This was an awesome video
these guys enjoy life to the fullest
Protect New Zealand at all costs 🇳🇿💙
I cant stop my self watching all of those ur videos, nic work, thx for inspiration, luv u, keep traveling, it is like my dream coming true while watching your videos
I can assume you guys that you all living without limits. Amazing! Wow. Incredible experiences.
best place forever in the earth!!
you make me feel like I was in your journey. Many thanks for creating such a stunning video
I live in nz myself and would love to do this at one stage just need to save a heck ton a/l to do so
Same, I live in Whangarei but I’ve never been to South Island yet haha
Yeah, I'm Kiwi and travelling around our own country is eye-watering expensive
I come back to this video often. I spent the best year of my life in New Zealand! Beautifully filmed. ❤️🇳🇿
Oh my gosh I live in New Zealand and this video has made me love it even more
Awesome Video and nice editing.
I spent six month in New Zealand and it's one of the most beautiful places I've ever seen.
I've made an Aftermovie as well btw ;)
So epic! Great work man, where is that ridge you are running on at 0:22?
Wanaka in the south island :)
Roys Peak Track if I'm not mistaken
Carlos Costa how to do create those video transitions (like at 3:39)?
Craig Workman Just search on UA-cam for 'zoom transition'.
*Pretty sick that you had Kyle as your guide! What an awesome guy!*
Yeah he was a legend!
thats insane how detailed that go pro is
what a beautiful nature. Thank you for showing other sides of New Zealand that you would never see otherwise💚💚
Huge edit improvements Carlos!! Keep up the good work!

I hope you enjoyed abel tasman with him as much as we did - what an amazing guide 😃
I watched it before I went to Nz... Now Im here and now every place where u have been😇 I love the country more and more every day! 🥰
Amazing Trip
Please could write down the places featured in the video? Headed to Nz in November for 6 weeks
Wish I had of seen this comment earlier, could have thrown you a few good spots. Hope you enjoyed it :).
please still list your ideas! (:
@@GreenFingersFert Please list them anyway, I' m going to fly in 1 week, and I will stay there for max 1 year. 😍
@@Torandoa I take it you will be going to both Islands? Down in the South Island near Christchurch you will be about 60-90mins from the Southern Alps and 10-20mins from the beach. A trip I love from my city (Christchurch) is, Cave Stream (great for beginner cavers, only a torch needed) about a 90min drive, you should include a stop at both Castle Hill and Lake Lyndon, and there is also a great 1-2hr walk near Lake Lyndon which gives you great views of the lake and Alps. Also Christchurch city is now ahead of where is was before the earthquakes hit us, although you can still see the fallen Cathedral. The West Coast of the South Island is a must, Shantytown (although quite touristy) is an awesome place to visit, as are the two big glaciers - Fox and Franx Joseph. If you are into tramping and scenery, the Kepler track down in Fiordland is a requirement. And don't forget to take part in all the extreme sports we have to offer. Queenstown and Wanaka are a must see, as is Lake Tekapo. And all this is just a small amount of what the South Island has to offer. Hope you enjoy your stay here :).
@@kawaiishayu Sorry had just seen your reply, see my post above if you'd still like some ideas :).
I still don’t what your vídeos, but now i’ll follow you always
One of the best videos I've seen and every time I look at it butterflies vibrate in my stomach! I will also be able to go to New Zealand I believe! Thanks Carlos❤️
Thank you so much for posting this, many people aren't able to travel so this gave everyone a joyful ride on your trip :) lots of love from new zealand
