The unofficial pictorial biography of New Zealand

So glad you’re here, because we’re going on a tour of New Zealand. Not quite the amazing scenery, but rather a trip on fire trucks, in yoga classes, cafes, bakeries, construction sites, restaurants. And yes, sheep.

Some part of this biography will be through a series of photo “albums”. Others will be with lavish cartoon diaries (check out the nav bar on the right).

To open the album, just click on an image, and boof—you’re in a whole new world. Try it!

P.S. The cartoon diaries and the photo albums get updated on a fairly regular basis. If you want to peek into New Zealand often, yes, there is a way to get updates.

Take your time and click through some of the albums. At the bottom of each album, you’ll find a subscribe button. When you’re ready to subscribe, click on the button and a zany newsletter will show up on a monthly basis.

It’s an explosion of noise—and petrol fumes that fill the air. That’s what Pro Kart Racing is all about.
