Akaroa





Akaroa - located about an hour's drive from Christchurch, and on Banks Peninsula, would have to be one of my favourite places in the world. It is a beautiful, quiet little seaside town, a perfect place to visit on a day trip.




What makes it one of my favourite places in the world? countless summers spent paddling in the sea as a child, eating hot chips by the beach, walking around looking at the beautiful old houses and immersing myself in nature. Smelling the briny scent of the ocean and the fragrant smell of Jasmine and Roses that waft down from the surrounding gardens........
