Published on March 11, 2015

Get the blood pumping and you'll never even notice the nip in the air. The city is teeming with new fitness crazes to try, pub trivia to win, fun free activities and some old novelties you've unfairly forgotten. Alternatively, this is the perfect time to pack your suitcase and extend your summer in the tropics. Just don't sit fixed to your desk and miss the adventures all autumn. Hibernation is for bears.

New Zealand has a reputation as one of the most beautiful places in the world for good reason. Get out there.
