  • A trip in the beautiful South Island of New Zealand. We swam in icy waters, flew over glaciers and camped under the stars and southern lights in the mountains..

    Wow welcome to NZ! This video has made me realise I totally take my country for granted. Stil yet to explore the South Island as an adult. Also where are your hats from that you were wearing on the glacier?? So cute!!

      I couldn't believe how beautiful it is! Like everywhere I looked on this entire road trip I was in awe haha, you will love to South Island. 🙌🏼
      The hats are launching in June at Will & Bear! I do have a code 'matteacarson' for a lil discount off their website if you decide to buy anything 🤍
      Ps, thank you for watching!!

    Stunning videography! Great narrative.
    It's always very enjoyable and somewhat emotional (positive) seeing my homeland through the eyes and hearts of visitors.
    I completely agree with you about the connections and deeper understandings we gain through shared experiences. Especially in wilderness adventures. ❤

    Later this year, starting in Spring, a friend and I will be walking through that area as we walk the length of New Zealand on Te Araroa.
    Look for vlogs in here if you are not familiar with it.
    Meanwhile I'm off to watch some more of your videos.
    We love Canadians! 💞🌿🙆🏻‍♀️😊👍🏽
    P.S. Your tent is gorgeous!

      Thanks Jessie 😊 I use a Canon R5 usually with my 15-35mm along with a couple other lenses for a few shots. I also use my iPhone 13 for a few clips here and there!

    What an awesome video, my wife and I are desperate to do the some kind of adventure. Are you able to share where you camped when you got that amazing footage of the sky? Around the 5:43 mark.

      is the Rees river valley think it is about a half day walk to where they camped or a couple hours in a 4wd if you jump on the DOC website you will find plenty of info

    You missed the fact that 90%+ of our water ways in NZ are polluted and that most New Zealanders can't afford to take themselves or their families on holiday to the locations you visited.

    • @MatteaCarson

      Hi Paul, I was visiting New Zealand as a tourist and spent money in your towns. I'm sorry to hear about the above issues, I'm just showcasing the beauty of your country and don't mean to take away from these points.

      Cheer up Paul. Go an poke your nose into other parts of the world and you'll soon realise (still) how lucky we are here in NZ.
