Mondays aren’t all that bad when they consist of exploring New Zealand 😍 I’ve now been travelling this beautiful country with @kiwiexperience for three days - the first stop on my five week tour was the Bay of Islands and Cape Reinga. This is the part of New Zealand called the ‘far north’ (which kinda makes me think of Game of Thrones or something 😂) and Cape Reinga is one if the most northerly points of New Zealand. If you continues direct north from here you’d eventually reach the east coast of Russia 😳 [sponsored]

Cape Reinga is really important to Māori - it’s the point at which the spirits (wairua) return to their homeland of Hawaiiki-A-Nui. The name Cape Reinga comes from the Māori word ‘Reinga’ meaning underworld - the wairua descend into the underworld by sliding down a root into the sea and then travel underwater to the Three Kings Islands to climb out at Ohaua, where they bid their last farewell before returning to the land of their ancestors.
✨
I love learning about other cultures and their traditions, history, legends and also their language so I loved learning from our Māori driver guide yesterday!

Do you try and learn about a culture and their traditions when you go somewhere?
Also, do you want to learn more about the Māori? 🇳🇿
