When thinking about your domestic travel, where do you start?
Reply, with where you book?

Now is the opportunity for us to support locals in whatever way we can. Whether it’s a coffee here or there, or a good word in for a local business every bit counts. As a travel agency we aim to take the hassle out of creating your holiday, with our expertise, knowledge and resources. We are at your service, a local. Currently we are unraveling travel with the best interests of our clients at heart and in all honesty it has been a slow process, so thank you for your patience.

I saw that the Stuff Travel Reporter @LornaThornber asked you how post COVID domestic travel has/hasn't been for you. Out of curiosity I read a few comments and the general feel, is that it's not affordable to travel in New Zealand, preventing many from venturing off. Us Kiwi’s love travelling abroad, but depending on where and when you go and the experience you want the cost varies, which is no different when it comes to domestic travel. Not going to deny that New Zealand on whole is an expensive country but by taking advantage of the special offers as they become available can get you on that much needed or wanted holiday. Think about your locally owned and operated travel agency – helloworld Travel Whangarei! We can help you get moving in our own backyard.

The Resene Upcycling Awards are coming back this month, the third year in a row! Watch this space and get prepared for the announcement; there are great prizes up for grabs.

Upcycling is the term used for taking a preloved item and transforming it - whether it's for a new purpose altogether, or just to give it an ‘extreme makeover'. Consider using the school holidays to get Upcycling with the smaller members of your household - or use the next rainy day to drag out the paint and your creativity!

In the meantime, check out some of the creative cookies from last year.
