Day 1: The first day of New Zealand’s Biggest Gap Year starts with arriving in Thames, Coromandel and tackling the Rockys Walk.

About this video:

Day 1 doing 365 days of 365 activities in New Zealand kicks off with the drive between Auckland and Thames, Coromandel. It’s the start of a gap year in New Zealand and our 365-day backpacking trip in New Zealand. The first activity is a walk in Thames, Coromandel. The walk is the Rockys Walk in Thames, which takes us to views over Thames and the coast.

Not only are we doing our first activity in New Zealand, but we are staying in our first budget accommodation for backpackers in New Zealand. Check out how we get on in the Dickson Holiday Park in Thames and what it’s like to stay in a campervan in a New Zealand holiday park.
