    Peter here... and I have to admit I have an addiction. Ika mata (coconut raw fish) is my weakness and I can't do anything about it.

    In Belgium, double frying chips is the norm for take-out. We are absolute fry addicts here in Belgium and you'll find loads of "frietkots" (chips take-out) in even the smallest of towns.
    The classic cars are all American brands so I guess it would have been an American classic car meetup.
    Thanks again for the content, guys!

      Wow sounds like you guys take your chips really seriously there! 🤩 Hopefully we'll get to try it some day 🤞🙂 Yea lots of classic American cars mostly (that we saw at least!) The celebration is for the 50s 60s era so there were lots of ladies decked out in that fashion but yea we just missed the weekend where it gets really crowded apparently. Thanks Bert! Hope you have a good week ahead 🙂👋🍟

    That little hike up was definitely pretty steep, and love Peters climbing jandals LOLOL, and the view was so worth the hike! 8:51 was postcard worthy!! You guys will have to look into property/houses out there. Peter was not leaving without that fish dish with the coconut milk!! Your AirBnB is gorgeous, and love the open space. It reminds us of many of the styles of AirBnB in Mammoth, with the 2 levels and open areas. We'd be in that tub for sure! The bike adventure was nice, and it lets you get a nice ground feel of the area. It's nice you got to see some of the cars for the car show that were there. Fun video and what a beautiful day!! Love you guys to the moon and have a great week! 😘🌛💖

    That peninsula looks dreamy!
    Love when you guys eat first (we are so fat 🤣🤣) Especially if there is fish and chips hahaha
    That toast with the baby fish looks fantastic, never seen anything like that.
    I really enjoy rocks, I used to have tons of those when we lived in NY. My mother used to have one of those huge amethysts when I was a child, but with all the travels we did, god knows where it ended. Love the Aquamarine.
    Beautiful stay guys

      😂 rocks are great, my favorite has always been jade though especially when they have nice carvings in them. Hahaha always gotta have some food in the video is an essential 👌 whitebait used to be super common here but it's a lot less easy to get these days cause of over fishing 🎣 try it when you get the chance delicious

    hello peter and yen ,once again a fantastic video, just laughed so much at yen opening those fish n chips. now when i was over there i so much wanted to try the whitebait fritter [ love whitebait ] but alas everywhere i went they kept telling me that the whitebait was out of season, so hopefully next time .which i hope wont be too far away god willing haha . once again i wait in anticipation for the next video as they do make me feel like i am there, and yes i agree with you paka hill reminded me of munganui , and you know i might just try that raw fish dish one day too . you guys take care yeah

      Thanks Barry 😁✌ I think the actual footage of yen trying to open the fish and chips was about 2 minutes long 😂😂 aaa bummer you missed out on the fritter a lot of places have a frozen supply to get through the other months but depends where you go. The next one will be special for you I think but won't say anymore so as not to spoil it 😉

    Hello,I am from Nova Scotia, Canada and I am planning to move to New Zealand. Your videos are very helpful and well done! I will be working in Auckland and because I am used to living in or near the woods or bush as you call it I think West area would be best for me. I watched your video of your trip to the west that was great, have you gone to Titirangi, that area looks nice.
    Thanks

      Hi Dean thanks for watching our videos 😊👋 west Auckland will suit you perfectly if you like Bush and woods 🪵 especially further out west you go. We are heading out that direction for a vlog this weekend so might stop off in titirangi if we have time, there's a couple of nice beaches and an art museum out there.
