People from New Zealand travelling to England to retrace their family tree and understand their roots a bit better is a common thing to do, but last year I was in the uncommon situation of travelling to New Zealand to try to discover the roots of my Mauri background.
To look at me you would think that all of my ancestors were Caucasians, but that is not actually the case. There is some suggestion that one of my relatives on my fathers side was a Mauri. Unfortunately the trip did not enlighten me, but it did introduce me to the beautiful country of New Zealand.
I had been determined to find out about the place and I had managed to find some very cheap Christchurch flights online which made it possible for me to head over, if only for a week. Christchurch is a beautiful town and is full of wonderful people.

Have you seen a road that is excavated manually along the mountainous and heavily forested coastline? I believe there are, but not many, and is even rare if the road is passes along coastline giving stunning views.
One of such built that I like is Australia Victoria’s Great Ocean Road. It is a road that stretches for 285 km (177 mi) between Warrnambool and Torquay and was built as a memorial to the Australian soldiers who died during World War I.
Despite its narrowness, with steep cliffs on one side, and constant switchback bends, it draws tourists’ attention for some fabulous views along the coastline.
