Country Side: Celebrating Rural New Zealand
If we don’t live there, we at least drive through it all the time.
Unleash your inner child
Take time to notice the stars, take a train just for fun, or splash out on an adrenalin-filled adventure tourism thrill. Go on, have fun!
Finding your roots
Where are we from? There's a resurgence of interest in genealogy; it inspires study, new connections and travel. Here, we look into how history is kept safe and explore modern ways to trace your ancestry. We search for clues to our own family stories, meet people who found long-forgotten forebears and talk to families who have come home.
