My love of travel first began when I went spent nine months backpacking through Central America. As soon as I got back I knew I wanted to turn my love of travel into a career and joined the travel industry; I now enjoy creating in-depth itineraries for clients, sending them all over the world.
I first visited New Zealand in 2018 and was blown away by the stunning landscapes and culture. When I joined Audley I spent a month in New Zealand, exploring both islands in depth. My favourite locations are the Coromandel Peninsula on the North Island and Mount Cook on the South Island, and my favourite memory is seeing sperm whales from a helicopter in Kaikoura.
Q&A with Becca
What鈥檚 the best local dish you鈥檝e tasted?
Oysters freshly caught in the Marlborough Sounds. I was never a big seafood person until I tried these. With a bit of lemon or Tabasco on top, they鈥檙e delicious!
Which book, film or artwork captures New Zealand the most?
Peter Jackson鈥檚 Lord of the Rings trilogy was famously filmed in New Zealand. The sweeping camera shots of the landscapes look like they鈥檙e straight from a fantasy world but it is of course just the epic scenery of New Zealand. It really captures how diverse the landscape is. You鈥檒l feel just like Frodo as you鈥檙e greeted with movie like views everywhere.
Your best piece of travel advice?
Catch those sunrises! If you鈥檙e staying somewhere stunning, set that alarm so you can watch the sun come up. It鈥檚 the perfect time to take in the scenery and reflect on your 糖心vlog传媒/adventures so far. When you鈥檙e traveling things can feel fast paced as you鈥檙e doing so much. Take those little moments in the mornings and grab a cup of coffee and watch the sunrise.
