    Loving that campervan idea - Car, air mattress, etc ... just goes to show you don't need much. We bought exactly the same wok from K-mart for $10 - great deal! I'm trying to convince Denise buying some sort of camper would be fun and do some traveling around NZ because at the moment it's all work, work, work (saving for early retirement / lifestyle change somewhere semi-rural). Leaning towards a Nissan NV200 imported from Japan to save costs - still won't be cheap however. Your content and storytelling is great and good music choices - well done! Cheers, Vinnie :) (Denise is watching your other videos, subscribing and commenting atm) :)

      Thank you for the support! Having a dedicated camper/RV is definitely a way to go in NZ. So many places to discover and so much to see! Also i would like to thank Kmart for all the cheap gear that we got😅 We love your content on your channel aswell!

      @@KenAndLauraVlogs I grew up in the 1960s and 70s (born 1957) and livestock moving along the roads was very common back then.
      There were a lot more gravel roads, and the pace of life was much slower. ❤️
      How cool that you guys experienced it! It's an iconic Kiwi situation.

    If its just you 2 maybe dont pack your bed away and just leave it out, and place things safely so they dont move around, save time, just a suggestion.

    Your setup has inspired me - but what do you do for a toilet and charging devices? Seriously want to try this, but I can't figure that out!

    • @KenAndLauraVlogs
      @KenAndLauraVlogs  6 месяцев назад +1

      Hi, we loved Hanmer Springs as well, such a lovely town.
      We mostly camped in places that had toilet but you can always buy a portable one. As with charging devices, we mostly did it while driving, had our phones on chargers, as for cameras we had multiple batteries already charged and ready to go. You definitely should try doing that. All the best! ☺

    Just a quick correction, on the treaty of waitangi. Maori never signed the treaty to agree to play by European rules. The treaty was signed by Maori, because they were tricked into believing that, they would still have their own laws, traditions, land etc, but that pakeha (Europeans) could live peacefully with maori. Sadly for Maori that was not the case, and it was far from peaceful.
    Great vlog though, hope you guys enjoy your week off

    NO incorrect on the treaty: It was an agreement between the crown, (Queen) and the Maori people of Aotearoa, that the Europeans can come in to Aotearoa, but they must live properly, as previous immigrants were running a muck in Aotearoa, so Maori chiefs told them to check their people coming in, they were acting like savages. for a while it was good, but then European started misbehaving again...So I am not sure where you got your info that Maori agreed to live the white mans rule, why would the majority of Maori give the Europeans this much power over their own country. This reply was to your answer, about Te Tiriti...

      Hi, the vacuous girl here, I get where you are coming from, I might seem that way in the videos, as I am not feeling totally comfortable talking to the camera yet, also speaking another language. I don't think your comment was quite fair as you really don't know me, but I take it as a constructive criticism to try and be more "livelier" and comfortable with the camera next time.
