Stefan's Greece

Hi people. I'm in Greece, which is known for a lot of stuff, like good food, beaches and ancient ruins, all of which I really like.
 
When we got to here, we were met by our friends Aris and Erene who brought us to their beach house in Loutraki. We used Loutraki as a home base for our time in Greece.

First Look at New Zealand

Hello everybody and welcome to New Zealand! We just left Asia. We love that people in New Zealand speak English and eat Western food. It feels like a vacation from our year-long trip.
 
Although New Zealand feels like America with British accents, there's a lot here that you can't find in America, like the Maori culture. The Maori are a Polynesian tribe that lived in New Zealand before English settlers came. We got to learn about them at the Auckland Museum. At the Auckland Museum we learned about Maori culture and weapons like the "patu," a war club made out of rock, bone, or wood, and the "taiaha," which is a long wooden spear.
