Tia's joy at the big things and Cheveyo's obvious disdain for them are both hilarious 😂
Nah, he loves it.
Those postcards look so good. I wish you would release box sets for purchase every now and then.
My, how far (most literally) the two former baristas have come... how wonderful their travels have been, and so beautifully documented for us to witness!
Maybe Tia should start a Big Things postcard series! She gets so tickled, which makes me laugh. (But I love the nature ones - gorgeous.)
What a brilliant idea
Probably the best postcard to date, it's amazing.
Hobbiton is the first time Tia was larger than the "Tia for Scale" object! Lol. Such a fun tour! Love the Japan postcard also! ❤
Love that you stopped at the ‘big’ sheepdog & ram in Tirau… there’s heaps more to find as you travel around - the carrot, the gumboot, the L&P bottle, the crayfish, the salmon… the ‘Simpson’s’ donut (Springfield) to name a few 😅
Damn, New zealand is beautiful. You two are low key doing some of the best travel documentary footage around
Loved the hot springs and the big dog! Cheers john
The cat was the best part! 🐈💛And Tia’s beautiful postcard art. 📨💌Thanks for the tour guys🏡❤️
Watching at 5am Sunday morning from the top of the South Island, so feeling your early morning pain 🙂
Love you guys for your willingness to show both the cool and silly parts of your adventure!!
So glad you’re both “Down Under “ again! Absolutely love following your adventures! ❤ 🧳
Tia and Chev! I want that postcard! Looks super pretty! Great job Tia! Maybe a coffee table book of all your postcards when you have collected enough??
I have fallen in love with your videos over the years, you guys have been my biggest source of comfort through the stresses of life. I can’t thank you enough :)
Also your post card looks beautiful as always !!
Its 3.28am here in Far Nth NSW. You 2 getting up at "midnight" to go to a beach with hot springs. 👏👏ALL your Vids are uplifting and positive. 💯💕💕 Very much look fwd to seeing you two next Sunday. Safe travels Tia and Cheveyo. ps As an Aussie, I "hate" Vegemite but LOVE Promite.😊
Glad to see you two living your best lives!
Glad to see you guys enjoying NZ! I love the fact that there are big things here too! The dog is so cute!
Wow what a great video 😃 two of my favourite things, cats and Big things 😊 absolutely loving your tour of NZ 👍 keep up the great work 💜 from Australia 🇦🇺
Postcard! Always wanted to see Hobbiton, now I almost did, thanks! 😊
Loving the NZ series so far! Glad you two have put more quality and length into these amazing videos.
Tia, your Hobbiton postcard arrived yesterday, beautiful! Thank you so much! Love your art 😊.
I am so glad you like it 😊
And I really do love that you guys manage to find cats in every country 😁😁
13:00 I get it Cheveyo! Totally obsessed with these movies/books and the whole lore.
As usual great video. Another thing with Vegemite, is Vegemite and tomato slices. Have fun guys.
I went to Lord of the Rings sites at Arrowtown (ford of Bruinen) where Arwon says " if you want him, come and claim him." and Glenorchy ( the scene where Gandalf rides to Isengard) near Queenstown on the South Island.
Fun watch, as always! Digging the postcard art. Nice job, Tia!
Wonderful that you did the moonlight hot spa thing.......that was great to see........love n light from Perth, Western Australia
Loving the explanation of the big sheepdog lol. We would love to be considered for the postcard also. Japan is on our bucket list.
I get to the end of the episode and realise I’ve been smiling the whole time. Love it
I'm so thrilled to have you here in New Zealand. I wish I could make the weather improve, we have had what feels like a year of rain and it still hasn't let up... Every time Tia showcases another fabulous postcard I always feel I really really would like this one - what amazing talent. I really really hope the computer random thingy pulls out my name!
Found your channel today, you guys are awesome!
You are making me want to visit New Zealand again. I had forgotten how lush it is.
There's a fairly subtle difference between Marmite and Vegemite. My preference is Vegemite. Several years ago there was an earthquake that damaged the manufacturing plant that made Marmite, resulting in a shortage of Marmite known as Marmageddon. I just watched Josh and Lisa's vid on NZ, and finally learned the origin story of the car plant!
Same here on the car plant - brilliant lightbulb moment 😂😂😂😂
That’s unique! Awesome!
It's a little strange how much I'm looking forward to seeing you guys in Rotorua's mud next video!
My guess is the town you're in that smells of eggs, is one or near one of the volcanic townships (e.g. Rotarura). Their power stations use the heat of the earth to make sustainable electricity!
Loving the series.
NZ is such a beautiful country. That postcard has got to be one of your best ☺
Loved seeing Hobbiton!!! Big fans of the movies! Too cool you guys!❤️
Another wonderfully beautiful and funny vlog. Am so enjoying watching you both travel the world - it brings back many memories of when our kids were young and we travelled also. The memories will be priceless for you as well, I’m sure! Looking forward to next Saturday night and your next vlog! Take care and stay safe.
Your postcards are beautiful, Tia! You are very talented
Thank you 😊
Melted cheese on your toast with a thin layer of Vegemite is the bomb!
We were impressed with your Aussie accent and hope that we hear your Kiwi accent at some point of your journey in New Zealand 🇳🇿
Practice, in a Kiwi accent, "The Sixth Sick Sheik's Sixth Sheep's Sick".🤣
good to see Tia enjoying the big things
Beautiful footage of a wonderful movie village.
For Vegemite you have to have HOT buttered toast -with the butter actually melted through. Then the thinest smear of vegemite -never thick like peanut butter. Cover the toast, but only a few molecules thick. Best late night snack in the world! Love that you visited the dog and sheep at Tirau. Tia for scale!
Brings back memories. Lived n a few places on the Coromandel Peninsula.
Congrats and cheers for having over 70K subscribers! 🥳🥂
"smells like eggs" thats the high sulphur content in the atmosphere. Many natural volcanic geothermal springs in the area that you may discover...
Wakes up -> Realize it’s a Sunday -> Opens up RUclips to check One Pack Wanderers -> Sees a new video -> DAY MADE!
Haha the big dog and sheep were great! I LOVE this months postcard! Gorgeous! Please let me be the random pick!
Love the positivity. Great job guys.
The reactions to the big sheep dog and sheep is gold 😂😂 oooh postcard 🎉🎉🎉
Love the new postcard. And laughed too hard at seeing more big things!
Ohhh I love your post cards Tia ❤ you’re adventures are always so interesting and relaxing to watch. Happy travels you two 🥰☺️
looove the cat ❤
The postcard looks amazing! I visited Japan for the first time this year and I'm still thinking about it all the time...
hahahaha ok so i actually did laugh out loud when they came across the big sheep dog. Both reactions were priceless.
Kia ora (hello) from a Kiwi I have been watching your Vids since you arrived here in Aotearoa ( land of the long white cloud) As a Native indigenous person ( Maori that is) Im really glad you are enjoying our country I have been as far North and Cape Reinga and as South as Stuant Island (Rakiura) I know you two will truly enjoy the journey and the adventures along the way Haerenga Haumaru (Safe Journey) and Nau mai haere mai te Aotearoa (Welcome to New Zealand)btw I live in Taranaki right next to Mt Taranaki
Raglan has a hot water beach next door to it, something when you visit the Caves,
their are lots of free features to explore along the coast road,
The Nachi Falls and the temple was captured beautifully in that postcard! Well done Tia!
Loving your NZ video series! We've been meaning to go back for a trip there ourselves and you might have convinced us...
Yoop yoop - great post card. Loving it
Enjoyed the next part of your trip
What a gorgeous postcard! I used to live in NZ and am loving watching it through your eyes. I'm new to your vlogs, love the energy you two have. Looking forward to more!!
Love that Tia found a big thing in NZ. Her joy (and Cheveyo's obvious pain in this case ^^) brings us joy.
That’s it the large doggie is the thing that pushed me over, NZ here I come 😂❤
I loved New Zealand, we were there in February but unfortunately we couldn’t see Hobbiton. We are going back soon to see the things we didn’t see first time around.
You put far too much Vegemite on your bread. More than double. 😳
Unfortunately that's what Americans do when trying Vegemite for the first time thinking more is better but when they get it right they quite like it
For a first timer it really does have to be the skimpiest amount possible with lots of butter 95% butter with 5% vegemite. It really would taste horrible when your brain is thinking it's going to be sweet.
I love the quirky roadside attractions that Tia finds! I seek that kind of things out too. A more recent one was an old Shell gas station that is shaped like an actual shell and painted bright yellow. It's in Winston-Salem, NC.
My visit to Hobbiton was one of the highlights of a NZ trip some years ago, I wouldn’t have gone except we were traveling with fiends and they wanted to go
We spent 3 weeks in NZ in May of this year and has the most amazing holiday ever. If you think the north island is beautiful, the south is somehow even better! Also jealous you were at Hobbiton, I’m a massive Tolkien fan and that place was like Disneyland for me. Keep up the great videos :)
I really enjoy you both so happy you are healthy and doing well. Prayers and Thoughts always stay safe. 🙏💙
Thanks for sharing your wonderful walk down Hobbiton. FYI - you might have spread the vegemite a tad too thickly. Hot toast with lashings of butter and thinly spread vegemite - heaven! 😋😁
Loved this so much!
We are loving your videos. New Zealand looks like a very interesting place to visit. Thanks for taking us with on your journeys!! 11:48 am from Saskatchewan, Canada!!
I want to go to Hobbiton now; it looks so cute. I imagine the egg smell around the lake would be from Sulphur hot springs. Keep safe. Cheers from Melbourne.
So love Hobbiton!
Cold pork pie at the Green Dragon Inn.
I want to visit Hobbiton now. Cheveyo’s facial expression for big things cracks me up 😂😂😂
It's okay Cheveyo, we got your LOTR references and appreciated them!! 😆
Marmite is New Zealand made and our only home made yeast spread .. There's very few cupboards/pantries in nz that doesn't have a jar or two of Marmite..
Marmite has barley, oat and rye whereas Vegimite has wheat and barley.
Hence that bite you taste only in Marmite. There's so many uses besides just on toast\bread\butter.
Great video! Heading to NZ in a few months and was wondering whether to put Hobbiton on the to do list. Thanks for sharing your adventure.
Another great video guys. It's making me wanting to visit New Zealand.
That postcard is 😍. Def your best one yet! I wonder how Cinnamon Bun is doing? We could hear kitty purring!
what a beautiful postcard! your video on kumano kodo is inspiring me to plan for a pilgrimage there too!
That cat was awesome!!
Love you guys! And great idea to sell box set of postcards!!!
What a beautiful video!! And gorgeous postcard Tia 🥰
Hope to see you guys hiking Tongariro Crossing! Next postcard should have Mount Doom on it 😀
I love NZ. Looking forward to going back again soon. Explored more of the South Island than the North but got to go to Hobbiton last time we were over. Such a beautiful country.
Tia looks like a local in that hot water pool!
I went to hobbiton not too long before you guys and it was honestly such an amazing experience and one of the most beautiful places I've ever seen
The postcard is beautiful!!! You both have a wonderful artistic eye. Thanks for sharing your travels! I enjoy your videos so much.
You need a better butter to Marmite ratio, smother the toast with Butter,so it softens,and then spread a bit of Marmite over it, so much better.
As an Aussie, I’ve always hated vegemite so I’m with Tia on this one. Also love the new postcard! Japan is on the bucket list thanks to you both. All the best
Way back in the early 2000s when i went to NZ and wanted to go to Matamata to visit the hobbiton set, the original set was basically only holes…the farm owner didnt want the film set keep and wanted to have the farm returned to its original state. Obviously realised a film set attraction is a better investment 😂 but very impressed with the attention to detail…also agree with the person that mentioned the Vegemite to butter ratio…if you’ve never had Vegemite before, you need more butter than vegemite. Also i find that marmite is a lot more “runnier” than vegemite…and vegemite is superior 😊
Waaaay tooo much vegemite….just a smear needed. Enjoying your trip😊 Your postcards are amazing!❤
Love your videos! Have almost made it through all 297! Keep it up! Spend as much time as possible in Wanaka - one of the best places in New Zealand. Definitely recommend isthmus Peak hike!
If you smear peanut butter over the light smear of vegemite, it might be more palatable to you. My sister just introduced me to that concoction and it was quite nice :)
Loving the NZ adventure! If you can we'd love to see y'all eat some New Zealand cuisine!
Didn't realise being on time was such a big thing in NZ
