066: Getting the Most out of Local Weekend Trips with Ashley Elliott

Ashley Elliott @littlekiwitravels shares about juggling a full-time job and making time for smaller local escapes on the weekends. She methodically plans each detail of the trip, to fit in as much as possible in a small amount of time. We talk about some of the best spots in the Waikato to visit, including the Coromandel and Waitomo - from flower fields to waterfalls to hot springs. Whether you're doing a lot of activities or you're having a more relaxed getaway, Ashley says it's important to be with people that match your vibe, so you can get the most out of the trip. In New Zealand, there is so much to do in such a small area and Ashley's tips will help everyone explore a little bit further.
