Out here we got what is referred to as eye gnatz. I don't know if they're the same thing or not. But I got a stye in my eye because they drink liquid from every orifice. Eventually though,...the season of them will end,.. and we won't have to worry about them for the most part.LoL. 😵😬😅👀
Thank you for the advise! Sound advise for most hikes. Now you need to come to the USA and hike the Appalachian trail or many of the other great trails here.
Hi Maui, I came across your channel when I was searching for " Travel watercolor kit" on youtube few months ago... After that I made a few kits of my own, however your simple kit stuck in my mind and I went through all your videos last week and was very much inspired by how you managed to do watercolor paintings in the most extreme weather conditions..and also the simplicity of minimalism.. Thanks for posting the vidoes.. they have encouraged me to stop and paint where ever I go..
This kind of information is so useful. It's one thing reading the official guides. It's quite another getting first hand into from an expert who's got no vested interest in promoting the trail. Good work Maiu!!😁
New Sub!!,.I love this kind of information it's very very good stuff,.. and I have friends in New Zealand,... but only on the internet,... so your trip just gives me a little more insight into the locations.
The TA isn't like this the whole way, it's more countryside roads along some hiking trails. But most of all I'm glad that I didn't commit because of the heat, it really doesn't suit me 😅
long sleeves (loose) ... and trou, both in lighter colours with a spare bucket of insect repellent ... you'll be fine ;-) (and people wonder why orcs are so nasty ;-)
Love your videos!
:) I'm happy to hear that!
Well sounded advice from someone who’s been there and done it 😄👍 wonderful vlogs .
Great tips and info thanks!
Sharing tips and information gained from personal experience and perspective is always good. Living and learning. Stay happy.
Try the earnslaw burn walk as well
Good advice, I remember the sandflies were able to bite me through my hiking socks... they are awful... but NZ is so beautiful.

I'm so jealous 😏 Thank you for sharing your adventures 👍👍
Thanks for the tips! Would you able to do a gear list video for both you & your mums stuff on the NZ tracks?
Yes, I'm planning to do a gear video as well :)
With these recent vids you've been on my mind!

I'm so happy to hear that you are painting! Keep going :)
Thank you very much for those tips… got the long gaiters now, and thinking what else to help with sandfly protection :)

Who has vested interest in promoting a public owned tramping track?

Awesome follow up video. 👍
Reading up on the "Sandfly" apparently there is a bite and sting extractor that stops the itch.
Thank you very much for your video. Very well explains. I just have one question. Can the company share which bus you used please?
I now always carry a mesh headnet. Around $2 from aliexpress, and weighing only a few grammes.
You're awesome!

So, um, are you sort-of glad that you didn't commit to 3,000 km of this sort of terrain, with the Te Araroa?
