Three years ago this was my life. Waking up in my van and going down to the shore of Lake Wanaka, New Zealand to have breakfast. Then I'd head off to work at the Lake Outlet Holiday Park to build rock walls for their new campsites. It was a beautiful time, free and full of adventure. Living in my van meant I could go anywhere anytime and I was home. Van living is a bit harder, no sink, no shower, no toilet and no kitchen, but I was far more likely to go to a place like this for breakfast, which I did everyday for quite a while. In a country full of beauty and serenity, Lake Wanaka is one of It's greatest gems, and I cherish the nine months I was able to spend there.

I would love to do this but have never had the courage to just go for it.
Justine, all it takes is the push of a button to buy the plane ticket. then let go and blow wherever the wind takes you. and NZ is a perfect place to start.
I came to look because of FB and am so happy I did. I will have to come back and read more of the Chasing the Sun posts, I adore them!! Please show more of New Zealand if you can.
Not a bad breakfast joint.
