Resfeber (n.) the nervous feeling before undertaking a journey; the restless race of a traveller’s heart before the journey begins, when anxiety and anticipation are tangled together.

As with any adventure, planning becomes an essential part of the journey. You know how it is, the nitty-gritty part of travel – the details, selecting a destination or accommodation and the uncertainty that follows.

However, if you’re an introvert, you know that sometimes the nitty-gritty is a safe haven of comfort.

If you’ve travelled the world, or hardly travelled at all – these tips are a must read before your next adventure.

Topdecker Tales - Get Social: New Zealand

25 Feb 2022

New Zealand has been at the top of my never-ending bucket list, so you can imagine just how excited I was to go on this trip. My expectations were high, hearing from friends how there is nowhere like it, and marvelling at the beauty of the country seen through many images of my friends’ exploits.  

As much as I preach to fellow Topdeckers that we can sleep when we’re dead, or in reality just taking a nap on the coach journeys, I found that incredibly difficult this time round. To do so would be to miss out on the picturesque surroundings that you encounter around every road you drive on.
