Photos that will inspire you to visit the Nelson Tasman

Every single day I wake up and thank my lucky stars I get to call New Zealand home.

These days where COVID19 ravages the world, we remain somewhat blissfully distanced from it down under, behind closed borders. One of the many perks of snuffing out community transmission months and months ago is that we can travel freely around New Zealand, mask-free.

Recently I spent a week up in the incredible Nelson Tasman, exploring this unique corner of Aotearoa through the lens of sustainability. Many of the people who work in tourism here are committed to being carbon neutral with a low impact on the environment.

When you’re surrounded by such an impressive landscape, backing on to the Abel Tasman and Kahurangi national parks, you can’t help but want to protect this place.
