Only in Wellington
Three places you can only find in Wellington. 1. Wellington Chocolate Factory. Nested between converted apartments it is chocoholic’s haven.

Another Wellington local. Home of delicious soda syrups, milkshakes and beautiful … Continue reading Only in Wellington

Another friend is off to the big smoke, looking for adventures in Europe. Am I jealous? Of course I am. However, looking at some of the pictures I took over the summer months I remembered why I wanted to come back … Continue reading A good day
We eat coffee for breakfast. Chemex edition

Mt Maunganui
