    In today's episode, we bring you on our crazy days in the adventure capital of New Zealand: the insanely beautiful Queenstown❤️🇳🇿
    From bungee jumping to literally finding paradise, our time here was an amazing ride!
    We are Oskar & Dan, two boys from Sweden who decided to change the course of our lives, drop out of university, and live life full-time🧔🏻👱🏻‍♂️ We've been together for eight years and have been traveling together pretty much since day one✈️ We're trying to see and learn as much about the world as possible before we settle down and start a family👨‍👨‍👧‍👦 In 2022, we completed our goal of visiting 100 countries at the age of 25🌍 Check our CZcams About page for more details👨🏼‍🤝‍👨🏻❤️

    New Zealand was country 100🌍
    We began our trip in Queenstown before making our way up the South Island to Wanaka, Lake Pukaki, Mount Cook, Lake Tekapo, Christchurch and more. We then hopped over to the North Island to finish the trip in Auckland and the surrounding areas. We can't wait to show you the rest of the videos from the trip!
    Thank you for watching!🙏😍
    0:00-0:33 Our flight got canceled :(
    0:34-8:49 Oskar's bungee jump...emotional
    8:50-11:13 New hotel and Queenstown is just...
    11:14-13:48 Finding (literal) paradise (MUST DO)
    13:49-14:18 Next time

    I really enjoyed the fact you were able to show Oskar's parents jumping off the same exact bridge. Wonderful video that really brings back a lot of memories from my own trip to that part of the world.

    I'm making my 8th trip to NZ this October - I just love the country. Of course, as an Australian it's only just over 3 hours away from where I live so almost next door. You're certainly right about the drive from Queenstown to Milford Sound - it's a long way. I based myself in Te Anau when I did it some years ago. A long day but do-able. Thanks for posting - a really fabulous vlog. 🙂

    Oskar, your bungee jump brought back so many great memories from my jump at the same bridge in 2016. I was cheering and clapping during your entire jump. and I had the same adrenalin rush climbing back up the hill. CONGRATS!

    Kia ora! I took that tiny plane to the Sound a few years back. The pilot must have great muscle memories he was texting his gf as we took off. Naturally, i didn't tell my folks at the back cause they would lost their s**t. But honestly, the view was to die for! Gotta love NZ. Visit more of the North Island next time. It's pretty cool up here too :)

    Is the bungee jump over the shotover river by any chance? The river boat on the shotover river is another must for the next time. But my god do I want to go back there, it’s beauty on another level!

    I had to laugh Oskar when you said you were shaking after jumping & wanted to do it again, then the pair of you walked in front of traffic. OMG have you not read ‘The Green Cross Code’? Urh Ha ha You are right though, the scenery is stunning. My memory of being on South Island is it being so quiet…..sooo quiet. Amazing.

    As a kiwi who has been to Queenstown over 50 times, it’s sad to say that you do get a little blasé about the scenery. I love the kiwi accent singing attempt - absolute gold. The accent is terrible, I feel so embarrassed. Another great video. So pleased you enjoyed my country

    Can’t beat NZ in the summer, if you guys want swimming spots you might have to head up north though 😂.

    Wow! That bungee jump looked really cool, but I don't think I'd be brave enough to give it a go myself. 😁 Though I've not visited nearly as many countries as you guys, when it comes to a big chunk of the places I've been to, I also have this feeling of, "I'm glad I've seen this place, but I don't feel the need/urge to go back again". However, with some places, I feel like there's some kind of "click". I'd be curious to know which places you also feel like going back to or exploring further, if you'd be willing to share. 😊

    • @OskarandDan

    Don't laugh when I tell you that by June this year here in Finland all people who own land are mandated by law to take out ALL lupines as well as verwelkte roses - and their roots. But as you are Swedes you might understand- While beautiful they really are quite nasty. For example spreading to all the sandy beaches, old forest floors etc.

    You guys are hilarious. Love your mispronunciations. Wanaka is spoken Wanaka, not wanarcar, and you go hiking..say Twizel the same.
    Your pronunciation of pukaki is spot on

      @@OskarandDan All is forgiven, you guys did a-ok. Think of Maori as being very similar to Japanese in pronunciation, without the 'sh' and 'z'. And the macron, just as in hawaiian denotes elongated vowels but NOT like in Oz where the vowels are positively strangled to death i theeeeeeenk, maaaaaaate :-)
