Aerial adventures through Southern Alps

Taking off from an airfield in Glenorchy, the landscape below was still hidden in shadow, but the peaks ahead held the promise of something spectacular.

Espiritu Santo Island of Vanuatu

My partner jade and I needed to get away and make our first overseas trip since the world shut down, somewhere warm. We had just come out of our winter season in New Zealand and still had snow on the hills, it very much meant our skin hadn’t seen much sun and we were as white as snow.

A bit more of an Adventure and perfect place to test out the Aeroe bikepacking carrier system.
