What I learned from hiking the Te Araroa long trail in New Zealand (approximately 3000km).

I hope this will be helpful for those interested in:

🎬 [YouTube Membership Launched]
I've created a closed space to share the real trial and error behind the videos, raw, unedited talks, and deeper thoughts on travel and lifestyle. I'm thinking of uploading little by little things like anecdotes from overseas trails, UL (ultralight) topics and ideas. The content may change.
If you're interested, please take a look.
