I love the way you are open to trying new things. Most people I know would never travel alone, sleep in a pod, eat that crazy breakfast item, or go camping with a stranger. But you live on the edge and seem to really know how to enjoy life. I'm sure that is why you seem to laugh and smile with such ease.
I’m in my 60s and I still do solo travel adventures. Hubby doesn’t want to come, so I go anyway. May you keep your adventurous spirit, Poppy
Poppy is a natural beauty 😍💙 so naturally Poppy looks good outdoors too! New Zealand is looking amazing, good job Poppy!
This was so fun to watch!!! love this !! :DD
Great video, looking forward to your next one, it's great how two strangers click so well, it makes travel
so much easier
Takes me back Poppy to when my wife and I did something similar in a van 15 years ago. Your can-do attitude is amazing.
Wow, just WOW. We haven't been to New Zealand yet, it's on the bucket list though and this video just pushed it to the top.
It doesn't appear that Poppy is going to be traveling solo!
Great video!Loved it😊
Good video, getting better with each one, and excellent editing! I see you are starting to solve loneliness issues you were having traveling solo. Good luck!
wow - already in NZ.. welcome. Fast editing - you made it from Auckland to Lake Tekapo in 5 minutes - impressive !! Look forward to more adventures from you Poppy.
This is the best video on how not to put up a tent, I'm so glad I'm not alone in camping failures.
Looks absolutely breathtaking! This is such a once in a lifetime opportunity. You definitely lucked out in New Zealand!
I just moved from New Zealand last year! Decided to pack up from the Caribbean and try out living there for a year. It was awesome! I'm blogging my experiences if anyone's interested to check it out.
I love that you know what you want and things work out for you in that way! Continue your Solo travel journey! It's honestly the best. You're inspiring more than you know :)
Great video Poppy...New Zealand is so beautiful...thank you..
Thank you hostel for not giving stakes with that free camping tent...headache for Poppy and Eddie but great laughs for us! :D
Rere Falls near gisbourne epic waterfall bodyboarding and if ever up near cairns Tully river rafting

Just found your channel Sis! I just finished travel NZ it’s so magical there. All about that female travel!!! Just subbed ya💕 🌍
Meat pies are great in New Zealand. Most people forget to try them. Glad you did.
So beautiful!! Nice video!
watching for the first time.
I get bored really easily with videos but damn, this video. New sub here!
haha funny video poppy that lake was beautiful! but you always look more beautiful than the scenery! good job oxoxoxo
haha thank you! I think the videos just get more ridiculous in terms of hilarious content and beautiful scenery!
I loved New Zealand when I was there amazing footage such a beautiful country ✌🏻
Would have been better to put your tent beside one of the pine trees and tie it there, but make sure it was on the sheltered side
Enjoy traveling my country enjoy be safe
Great video 😁✌️
Welcome to NZ, hope you have an enjoyable time, sorry about the airport, it's very disjointed we know, hope the weather holds up, drive safe, will be following your clips. Warren from Auckland.
New Zealand is insanely beautiful!!!
This road trip looks like heaps of fun! Lake Tekapo (Tech-a-poor) 😂 is stunning, the colour of the water always takes my breath away. That tent ordeal was hilarious. Meat pies = Mince or Steak pies are kiwi staples 😂 but trying to find a really good one can prove challenging 😉 Look forward to the rest of your NZ vlogs 😍
I think he likes you😇😁. Glad to see you are more happy then in your last video.
good for! what a surprising adventure for you
Hi Poppy a wonderful trip in New Zealand you are so tired of getting to the lake ..The tent must be a bit heave and the big rocks should be placed because the air is heave. Good luck Poppy
I was waiting for the New Zealand video... last video you were sad! Wonderful @Poppy!
@@WheresPoppy You make me travel across the globe to places I never has gone, I get so excited each video! Really thank you for sharing so amazing moments! Be blessed pretty girl!
I would love to go to New Zealand!! That bright blue lake is my favorite 😍😍
TO : FRECKLES ON THE BEACH ;
KINDLY GET IN TOUCH WITH ME. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
---BRIAN (BJNG).
Also, do you ever get scared when you meet random dude you're teaching with and think.. He could kill me.
You are so funny, I use to camp in Yosemite several times and king canyon
That solo traveling is pretty impressive.
On the edge of my seat with that cliff hanger ending. Will our heroine end up in the van with Eddy? 😨 Will the missing tent stakes be found in Eddy's backpack? 😅
I was wondering if you would come to NZ when I watched all your trips in Australia. Yeah! You did come!
While you are at Lake Tekapo,make sure to check out night sky that's what Lake Tekapo is famous for.
I am looking forward to camp in newzealand but how do you use the restroom?
Very nice vlog.... fun to watch n waiting for the next one..
@@WheresPoppy how come u didn't like the pod? It looks gr8 in the video but i dont know in reality.he he
great video, a year ago today we was in the same boat ;)
I just noticed that the video is postly about kayaks !! lol
YAY, you made it. If you get to Napier, let me take you out for dinner.
Omg the chicken tikka masala pie..... Not how you do Oceania 😂
so beautiful there
Will you do a video on freedom camping in New Zealand? Some people think you can camp anywhere but of course that is not true. You can only camp for free in certain spots. What app do you use to find your free camp spots?
I'm just making videos as I experienced New Zealand. There's was barely any internet or cell-reception so honestly I didn't always know what was happening. But I do believe I talk about some of the campsites, and how you go about paying for them.
This is awesome
You fell in love with Australia. Will it happen with New Zealand too? I can't wait to find out!!
and you're in France now after NZ where you had roadtrip with a French speaker...a lot of stories in my mind already
May I could go to NZ one day. What a drem🖤
New Zealand what they don't tell you, as a local of south island.
1. sand flies will bite if your unlucky, if not they still fly into everything is such a pain. keep food and drink covered at all times.
2, try to buy most stuff from bigger stores as towns based on visitors have a small mark up as they are so isolated, if you find the coffee getting out of hand you might want to buy a press and get some blended coffee to make and store in the thermos, 6 to 9 dollars a time is kinda painful after a day.
3. weather will chance in a min, you see dark clouds in the distance they will be on you fast. weather here being a long thin island is like a hit of miss if it a windy day or a clam one, the "all four season in one day" line is no joke.
4. watch out for the camping police "people" get touchie if you try to camp in non camp sites. Think freedom camping app is still good, list all the free, paid & self contained sites everywhere
5.all the walks by doc are normally free, if there a hut on a over night walk it may have a small fee like $20pp per night. but they full up fast, day walks should have no charge if self-guided. all marked out and kept in good condition. just remember the all 4 season in one day and you'll be fine
6. plans never work out so just go with it and a 1hr drive wont be 1hr you'll want to stop.
7. Queenstown is amazing.
8. have fun and where nice people most of the time so we might just strike up convo and ask stupid questions, like y did you want to come to NZ? it our ego boost to find out why people want to travel here. oh and if you litter expect and extra earful from us it kinda a double standard sorry.
Just got this idea myself and im currently considering going....
Pods never looked so good 🤩
beautiful
Inviting you to Zambia come and see the might Victoria fall.
Lameck Chawinga
Told her many times to go to Africa. We love it! Vic falls was great, but Naminia is the best. Sorry😀.
She will go to Africa ones, I'm shure.
Uh so so nice ! I've done the same or similar. Great ! 👍🏻🥰
A facepalmed Eddie: 'What did I just signed up for?!'
Haha, just kidding...
Beautiful country
Its been about a month now.. Any update on the friendship turn boyfriend?
Hey wish i could go travelling with you!!
pitch it next to the car. use it as a wind shield
Wait ... poppy is from America .....and speaks good French!? Amazing
the i love u teddy bear was very subtle
Hi Poppy. I have a question about your drone photography. I just stumbled across your New Zealand videos and I wondered if you travel with a drone or if you rent one at your destination. I know some can be quite heavy to travel with! Also, did you need permission to fly it in New Zealand, and were you prohibited from flying in some areas? We are going back to New Zealand in a few years and I’d love to have some drone footage, but not sure how best to go about that! Thank you!
So so beautiful and beautiful.. 😊
Wow! I never knew we had sleeping pods at Auckland airport! Probably because I live here nowadays so I just head home. But it’s definitely a Japanese influence that tho might not appeal to everyone, I think it’s a good idea. Thanks for sharing that!
But, Poppy, as a Patreon person, I’m surprised you didn’t share the costs of your pod for travellers visiting to NZ.
Yeah, you’re right Connor, in replying to your reply, I get to see the vid again and it’s not Auckland! And The last time I was at Christchurch airport was in 2002 and they definitely didn’t have sleeping pods back then, lol! So thanks for your reply mate 😊👍
It’s in Christchurch behind Spitfire Square opp KFC and McDonald’s - easy walking distance from the airport. Queenstown has the same pods as well they start from $35 a night
Are tints without steaks vegetarian? Thank you for the good story.
Is this in Christchurch?
Hi Poppy are you by any chance still in NZ? We've sent you an email for a project proposal, hoping to hear back from you, cheers.
The color of that lake. Amazing blue. Amazing clean and clear! I wish I could go one day. Maybe less in 5 years before I'm not too old.
Come to Brisbane next time
New Zealand has Walmart that’s where you can buy camping stuff cheap. I know this is late but in case you are going again.
Thanks, I went to the Wharehouse this is also a good place to find cheap camping stuff, or thrift stores (opp shops)
Eddie better get that meow meow
Tent lol.
Wow what’s the Name of the First Hostel??
So,where did you sleep that night?
Finds random guy with van.... whose actually normal and kinda awesome.
Ty bot hahaha😂
