Our excitement of getting to visit New Caledonia dampened a bit when we started researching how much it costs to stay there! Definitely it has imported prices as well as the language from France, and thats a real shame for backpackers. Új-Kaledónia látogatása iránt érzett lelkesedésünket kissé lehűtötte mikor rájöttünk, hogy milyen sokba is fog ez nekünk kerülni. Nemcsak a nyelvet, de az árakat is importálták Franciaországból. With only a short time available we opted to visit the most talked about location in New Caledonia, the remote island of L’lle des Pins (Isle of Pines). The only way to get there is by ferry which runs only 3 days a week, making the island paradise feel very isolated. We had a fun journey as the cyclone that had affected us in Fiji had passed nearby and ... read more

Finally we had made it to this infamous country, infamous because this was my second visit (Andy) and I had previously declared it to be my favorite country! Praise indeed, and I was really hoping it could live up to it in Briggi’s eyes. Perhaps the most important aspect of New Zealand is that the people are so friendly, and we were reminded of that as we went through customs and the customs man treated us like a long lost friend. Wonderful country, nowhere else could I imagine such a reception at the border controls. Tahiti után Új-Zéland következett. Azt hiszem a világ legbarátságosabb országa, melyet már az országba érkezéskor megtapasztalhattunk. A kedvesen mosolygó vámos úgy kezelt bennünket, mint régi barátokat. Our first night we spent in Auckland without seeing any of the town (the inside ... read more

Easter Island was one stop on our trip that we really had to fight hard to get included in our round the world ticket as it’s not on the main world routes. And we shopped around many travel agencies until we found one that could help us get there on a RTW ticket. We both felt that to reach Chile and not to visit the famous Easter Island which we both had a curious interest in would be a waste. Szamunkra a Husvet-Szigetet megnezni, hamar a “kornyeken” jartunk, muszaj volt. Alapvateoen ez dontotte el, hogy melyik utazasi iroda ajanlatat fogadjuk el, mivel a Husvet-Sziget jellemzoen nem resze a tipikus RTW (Round The World=Vilagkoruli) jegynek. We had five days on the island, which was perfect considering you can walk the length of it in one day if ... read more

Our dream of finding soft beds and showers as we entered Argentina following our tiring trip in the wilderness of Bolivia was to remain just a dream… In fact we got just the opposite! We crossed the border at sunset and discovered the first lie of our Bolivian salesman; the bus wasn’t going to have the nice reclining seats he promised! Having wasted the evening in a cafe we got on the bus heading for Buenos Aires at midnight for a massive 22 hour journey. Just to really frustrate us it turned out the journey was actually 28 hours! Cheeky Bolivian salesman… Almunk, hogy meleg agy es tusolas var rank Argentinaban Bolivia utan, sajna alom maradt. Sot, epp az ellenkezoje tortent! Ahogy a nap lebukkott a horizonton, mi is atleptuk a boliviai-argentin hatart es szembesultunk a ... read more

Peru has got quite a name for itself amongst travellers with its beautiful mountains and the infamous Machu Pichu, and we were really looking forward to see it for ourselves. It’s also not the safest of South American countries, which we did realize throughout our stay, but thankfully never experienced anything bad ourselves. Being paranoid over ourselves and belongings seemed to deter the would-be thieves. Peru neve egyet jelent a 6-7 ezer meteres hegyekkel, a Titicaca toval es termeszetesen a Machu Pichuval, igy ertelemszeruen mi is nagyon vartuk, hogy sajat szemunkkel lathassuk. Azonban Peru nemcsak szep, hanem veszelyes is. Alapveto jo tanacs: ne utazz taxival. Na ja, konnyu azt mondani, de ha nem beszelsz egy szot se spanyolul es a buszod este 11-kor indul a varos masik felebol, oldd meg! Azert eleg komolyan vettuk a kockazatot ... read more
