    Having traveled extensively, I understand your concerns about keeping healthy. It's a lot harder to do when you're constantly on the go. I'm sure your audience understands when you need to take time to feel better. If you don't, it'll just get worse, and we won't have any wonderful Tia & Cheveyo videos to watch, so please take care. ^^

    A word from the experienced.
    1. If going to to do the boat trip in Milford Sound, buy mosquito repellent in Christchurch! Cheaper that way. 👍
    2. Allow 2.5 hours ahead of the boat departing time to drove the 100km from TeAnau to Milford! This road is a conveyor belt of busses and, even when you can overtake one, it only puts you behind the next bus in front. Chill and enjoy the drive, safe in the knowledge that if the bus could go faster, it would!
    Extra local knowledge credit. Take some empty water containers with you. Locate and remember Monkey Creek. Stop on the way BACK. (For easy reference it’s at the bottom of the hill after exiting the Homer tunnel). The stream, from which the creek is named, is glacial melt water and some one the nicest water you’ll ever drink! 👍
    Have fun, stay safe. 💕

    As far as sciatica is concerned, take it from someone who has had it a few times in the past, there's exercises you can try - as long as it's not too painful to do them.
    Lay flat on the floor or bed.
    One leg bent so that the sole of the foot is flat. With your other leg remaining straight, lift it as high as you can - supporting it with your hands behind the knee. Don't pull the leg up with your hands - just support it.
    You will find that if you do it a few times you'll be able to lift it a little further each time.
    Also, stand a few feet away from the back of a chair or a kitchen counter. Place your hands on it and walk backwards until you have created a 90 degree angle at the hip joints. Hold it for a few seconds. You will feel the tension in your calf muscles. Then walk back toward the counter or chair while supporting your weight until you can stand upright without straining your back-muscles or spine.
    Also talk "somebody" into giving you a massage with the ball of the hand in the lower back. If nobody is available for a massage, then stand against a wall with a hard rubber ball in the small of your back and move so the ball rolls around the small of the back.

    We ran into the same issue healthy food wise during our 3 year trip. At some point we started eating rice bowls in the morning with lots of veggies, avocado boiled egg and sometimes chicken. It was a life changer in that during lunch we didn't need as much food, usually some fruit or a simple snack would suffice until dinner. Fun video as always guys, looking forward to seeing your impressions of New Zealand!

    Having only ever explored the North Island, am excited to see the South Island through your eyes - so far it’s as picturesque as I had heard/was expecting!
    As far as healthy breakfast and lunches, was thinking fruit and vegetable based shakes - banana, honey and peanut butter with milk of choice is a favourite go to for me - perhaps even invest in a cheap small Bullet-type blitzer for breaky and if you can afford, and if convenient, find a Boost Juice bar or similar for lunch - very filling and sustainable!
    Here’s hoping your back doesn’t give you any more grief Tia!

    This might be too late, but - don't miss the glaciers on the West Coast! Mt Cook/Aoraki is great, but the glaciers a day or two north of there are worth a visit too. Christchurch is still recovering from the earthquake many years ago.

    Concerning food... when I was solo road tripping the south island, I brought some reusable zip lock bags and a takeaway container. That way I could bring nuts and cut up veggies with me on the go. And for lunches I would make a double quantity of whatever I cooked the night before and put the leftovers in the container. It just requires a bit of pre planning.

    A fjord is an underwater valley carved by glaciers which continued to excavate the valley below sea level.
    Like a fjord, a sound is a valley that has been filled with sea water but due to sea level rise or seismic activity causing the land to sink below sea level.
    The Marlborough Sounds are mostly true sounds and Fiordland sounds are mostly true fiords

    • @DB-thats-me
      @DB-thats-me 6 месяцев назад +1

      Blame Cpt.Cook. Being English, he tended to name all narrow, deep water inlets, ‘Sounds’. So, even having named the area Fiordland, he went on to name the fiords, Sounds. 😳 And, to add insult to injury, he also named some extensive Fiords as ‘Inlets’! 😱

Oh, and boiled eggs - if you're staying somewhere, just boil a heap of them and keep them in the fridge for a week. As long as you're keeping low calorie protein and greens, and fibre higher than your carbs, you'll feel better.

    The thing that stung Tia sounds more like a wasp. We have a number of species and if you go near their nest, which can often be quite small, they will sting you as a warning to keep away, even if you weren't really close.
    I noticed you don't butter your bread before adding condiments and fillings, which seems to be the norm in the States. However, you should try good old NZ butter, as it adds another dimension to a tasty sandwich!😋

Lots to do in Chch but recommend a visit to Riverside market for a Dimitris Souvlaki (not a uber healthy option but it does have a good amount of lettuce in it). On your way down south, stop off at Fairlie Bakery for a pie - one of the best I've found. You'll absolutely love the drive down towards Wanaka and Queenstown. If you see a sign for a real fruit icecream, definately grab one of those too (I'm looking at you, Tia!) Enjoy, looking forward to more videos... hope you manage to get to do some hikes!

    G'day Guys,
    As #1 said, some of the walking and camping trails are some of the best, Milford Track in particular., in my opinion. Though Tia's back and Visa limitations might be a consideration here.
    If traveling by car, then going to from Lake Te Anau to Milford Sound through Homers Tunnel is well woth it, and a boat ride down the Sound is really good too. Not sure if it is still running, but one of the cruiser boats does a couple of hours fishing at the mouth of the Sound also. I would travel up and visit Fox Glacier also. A flight over Mt Cook is really good, and if you can afford a helicopter, then they normally land up somewhere up there.
    In regards to eating healthy, well for the evening meal we regularly buy a stirfry mix from the supermarket, add some onions, a large handful of nuts, and mushrooms and olive oil, and when plating up, a large dollop of humus on top for good meeasure, and you're good to go. The secret is to cook the onions and nuts first up and through out to keep the temperature low. You don't need any meats. It's super cheap and takes less than 10mins to prepare!
    Anyway, have fun and can't wait for your next instalment.
    Cheers
    Peter

    You’re close to one of my favourite towns in NZ; Nelson. The Fjords of NZ are are the other side completely near Te Anau. As many have said, if you need to reset your visa, simply head to Christchurch (you’d need to be travelling clockwise), park car in short term, do a 3 hour flight to any Australian city (suggest a cheap jetstar to Sydney), then fly back.
    Car dealers like this are common. As you’ve come to realise, New Zealand imports second hand cars directly from Japan. It’s certainly Japanese rather than Chinese primarily because both countries drive on same side of road so almost no changes are required for Japanese vehicles (like your BMW), being imported.
    With such a high number of Japanese car brands, repair of Japanese brands are also reasonably priced.
    Australia doesn’t have the same grey import laws.

    • @OnePackWanderers

    The word «fjord» is Norwegian. It means a body of water that connects to the sea and contains salt water. The origin of the word is «ferdes» which means to travel. It is from a time when people used boats to travel and land was an obstacle. There are also major inland lakes with the word fjord in local dialects, but in modern Norwegian a fjord always contains seawater. Greetings from Norway!

Get a small zip lock bag and put ice in it, then put you lunch in a plastic container or cling wrap, then put both in a large zip lock plastic bag and put it in you back pack. My favourite is to make a Caesar salad and put it in a plastic container. You can eat well and on the go, just have a plan.

What an amazing journey you guys are on, I hope you look back on these memories, encounters and experiences (even the bumps in the road) with fondness, excitement and love!! Staying healthy BOTH mentally and physically is so damn important and so necessary! Making sure you are getting all the nutrients would be hard from a financial point, in the little travel experience I have had I do find going to supermarkets and getting pre-made salads, ham and cheese for sandwiches is good. I am not sure if you do have one but getting an esky would prove to be a game changer, you can keep things a bit fresher (you can usually get ice from petrol stations) or get little ice packs to put in the freezer overnight for the times you do to hotels. Sorry I have rambled on but that is just my tip :) keep smiling, you are both amazing humans and so damn gorgeous (if I had ONLY known you before when you were in Melbourne I would have LOVED to have met up!!

    Another nice one, you two! It appears you didn't spend much (any?) time in Picton, once you drove off the ferry. In 1962/63, I was on a cruise on the SS Oriana, which called in to Picton. It had to anchor quite a distance from shore, though, considering its size (42,000 tons). Anyway, it was certainly windy there. There was a 'wishing well' in a park by the shore, etc. I found it an intriguing place. Now, you want something yummy and nutritious......how about Vegemite, cheese and tomato sandwiches? (I prefer Roma tomatoes but....) I'm looking forward to seeing your next 'report'. All the best!

Fresh fruit helps so much I enjoy oranges as a snack when traveling then don’t go weird in the car like an apple. Veggie sticks like carrots, celery cucumber capsicum/bell pepper with some tasty olives and a bit of cheese is my what my mum gave us when we’d do road trips just so we weren’t eating junk in the car but at roadhouses it was chicko rolls or toasties.

    Ok you asked for some health tips: since I'm in my 50's I've been eating snacks of JIF Creamy Peanutbutter on apple slices & wheat crackers to keep things healthy during the day/evening and away from fast food items. Good luck and stay healthy...I dig your videos & keep up the good work!

    Your videos are getting better and better. Your production values are great. Your Narrative is relatable, and down right charming. Do take care of yourselves. When I am on the road. I tend to start off with a large breakfast, chased with some caffeinated fuel. The rest of the day is about hydration, and nibbles of fruit, nuts, and such. and more caffeinated fuel if needed. Ta Da time for dinner. PS Cheveyo Digging the long hair.

    Hi guys, just a quick idea, apart from Milford and the great areas in Fiordland, Catlins National Park in the SE from Bluff. The waterfalls in the park , Matai, Niagara and McLeans falls, and the wonderful Purakaunui Falls. Part of my fav natural things to see. As you looking a Bluff, if your interested in motorbikes, drop into Invercargill and see the Worlds Fastest Indian motorbike, there is a movie about the the man with Anthony Hopkins which might wet you appetite if takes you fancy one evening. A few ideas down that way I’ve found when on trips to NZ

    The best way to eat a proper diet and be healthy is to ignore all the gimmick foods. Eat a high amount of protein for breakfast(bacon and eggs type things) cut out the carbs and sugar. When you eat more protein you will be satiated all day and not looking for food when you are out. Cutting out the carbs and sugar will help your overall health and help Tis reduce the inflammation in her back. Best of luck on your trip around NZ, we loved it especially down both coasts of the South Island. The sand is black in some places. Amazing place!

    Love your content guys, and have followed you through lots of your travels. But at the end of your NZ trip I hope you take some time out. You need to refresh and have some time for yourselves. This video was really flat, and I feel it's because you both need a break. Take care of yourselves, but looking forward to seeing more of the beautiful South Island x

    Soak oats with , raisins and cranberries. Use any fluid , soya milk, etc. store at room temp in a covered bowl. No worries. Add a banana in morning. If you want it hot, nuke it.. I’m spoiled I don’t like anything else. Easy to transport and eat on the road if necessary

    FRUIT! Eat more fruit! Get your fiber, vitamins, flavor. Kinda hard to do on the South Island variety wise, but it's how I keep up with healthier eating while traveling. Esp. when you have your own wheels, you should always have a bag of fruit to snack on or to chase a meal. BTW, on my trip to NZ, my bus service (Kiwi Exp) got into two accidents just getting out of Auckland. Also, I assume you've read about the plague that are the black flies on the South Island. Be prepared (head nets, long pants with tight weave socks that can roll over the pant cuffs, etc.). Better to look sorry than be a buffet.

    Urghh, poor Tia! One foot on the dining chair, lean forward stretching and adjust hip until you feel the stretch! Hard to do but avoid bread! Eggs are a good way to go. NZ dairy is so rich it tends to put the 'beef' on your bum lol so careful on the cheese too. Lots of nuts for snacks. Enjoy Nelson. If there on Saturday, go to the city markets but you MUST take the Split Apple Rock boat tour up through Tasman Bay. We came across a pod of 30+ dolphins and loads of seals. Also check out Eyebright country store, park and guinea pig town (in one place)

    Fantastic shots of the sounds! For a healthy breakfast try weetbix and/or fruit with yoghurt. For lunch put together a salad with leafy greens, whatever other veggies you like (things like carrot sticks, cucumber, cherry tomatoes are easy to transport) and cooked chicken/fish/hard-boiled eggs/cheese for protein. Ham isn't the most healthy meat, so maybe avoid that. For carbs add some potato or pasta salad or some crackers as a change from bread.
    If you need to reset your visa then you should be able to find a cheap flight to Melbourne or Sydney, stay overnight and go back the next day.

    In NZ we have ACC (Accident Compensation Corporation).
    It is a no-fault scheme covers everyone, including visitors, who are injured in an accident in Aotearoa New Zealand. It can include events that result in mass casualties, and covers children, beneficiaries, and students. You're covered if you're working, unemployed, or retired.
    If you qualify, your medical costs are paid for by ACC, even if you are in NZ on a temporary visa to visit, study or work.
    The injury must be because of an accident. ACC does not cover things like illness, conditions from ageing and emotional issues

    When you’re cooking your protein at night, add enough for lunch the next day. It’s easy in the mornings to make up wraps with some salad when packing a lunch cooler with an ice pack. Wholegrain foods keep you fuller for longer: multigrain breads and wraps, sour dough bread, switch to brown rice, oats and quinoa. As does eggs and protein meats and cheese; eggs in your breakfast, with a wholegrain carb and a protein like bacon or ham will carry you through until lunch; as does oats for breakfast with the addition of some nuts and fruit and a dollop of yoghurt. At dinner time when you’re tired and travel weary, stir fries are fine and tasty for dinner, but energy intensive. If your accomodation has an oven, try one tray baking, which gives you time to relax for a bit. Add your protein (could be chicken pieces or chops or sausages or a slow cooking steak) and chopped veges, onions, mushrooms and cook in oven for about an hour. You can pour in a packet of gravy to heat through, or I actually love to add the baked meat and veges to a salad with some feta or goats cheese…

    Lookin' great in that Mifune man bun! Eating: Definitely keep up the plant fiber content. When traveling like you do, it's important to keep the insides lubricated with soluble and insoluble fiber and get lots of antioxidants in the diet. Find a good quality plant based shake mix and have it daily for breakfast or lunch. , and maybe reach out to some companies asking for a sponsorship. If you were in the USA I'd send you a case of the stuff I use!
