Travel New Zealand | Inspiration

We explain how a devastating 7.8-magnitude earthquake affected Kaikoura, damaging homes, businesses, roads and rail links, and we share our personal connection to the town and concern for friends who live there. We show clips from our time working and traveling in Kaikoura and the surrounding area, highlighting its beauty and wildlife. We encourage viewers to support the community and visit Kaikoura again when its tourism industry recovers.
