Little death on the road
2 weeks knocked out? No mama, no wife, no talks. Just a bed and thousands of thoughts.

After watching those pictures you might say: too crowded, too many people, too dirty. And you might be right. But those 24 hours on the ferry from south to north of Tonga was our best experience in this country.
The best thing about 3 days on the empty island? We could run naaaaaked ;) The worst? No sweet water sucks.
Since our first days in Tonga we kept on hearing about this guy. At the end we bumped into him on a small island. And his name is… Bruno Banani.
So we are moving through Tonga! By the ferries, boats, hitch-hiking on some jeeps and sometimes on our 4 big and 4 small feet.
Sunny face, friendly smile and curious eyes. Understanding, asking questions, making friends of any origin and speaking any language. Be a parent of a kid, who travelled!
Warm, wet and exactly like we like: people, people, talking with people!
During traveling so much things is going on. But the paradox is that we remember all of it: what was our morning view, what did we eat for breakfast and who did we meet. To give you a feeling about our typical day in New Zealand, we made this video. Wanna join us? ;)
Seals, penguins, dolphins and kiwi birds – that was our plan of meetings for New Zealand. We saw much more wildlife in New Zealand!
Coolest place to sleep in New Zealand? Marae, the sacred meeting area of Maori people. We were lucky to be invited!
Our girls were totally confused. In both: Polish and German we call the fruit, the bird and the citizen of New Zealand with simple short “kiwi”. In NZ you better not mess it up.
You have this picture in mind of far away New Zealand: freeeeee, wild and empty? Hmmm. It’s not. But it’s for sure a good country for the travel-beginners: very easy and very beautiful.
Just imagine that there is suddenly nothing from your favourite city centre. There is no your favourite cafe, where you meet with friends. There is no cinema. There is no your office. Your lively, beautiful city changes into many little villages around. Sad story? This is what happened to Christchurch.
Māori peoples say it’s eel baskets, calabashes, and kumara washed ashore from the wreck of a large sailing canoe. Hanna and Hanna say it’s the best playground in New Zealand.
I guess this was the most impressive place we have ever seen. Worth to cross the whole New Zealand to get there!
– Hello! I’m Mila and I’m three! – Mila likes to tell to people around. – You are free? – asked Andy. – Then you have everything in life!
Every day something new? So maybe a bungee jump from 47-metres bridge above the crazy blue river, in the home country of bungee jumping?
You want to travel with your kids? Make two of them (at least)!
Just imagine: it’s deep XVII century and you are travelling on the ship for years to find new lands and draw new maps! And only after 125 years the next European person will be there! That was a story of Abel Janszoon Tasman – Dutch seafarer and explorer, who in 1642 saw New Zeleand (and Read More
How long does it take to make a giant stack of pancakes? About 30 million years ;)
