Hey everyone,
I've been staying in Auckland, NZ for the past 5 months or so and while it is a lovely city and has treated me well, then anybody who knows me personally knows also that at heart, I'm a country boy and a child of nature and as such, it is time to go out exploring the rest of the country.
The plan is to be road tripping around NZ for the next 5-7 months, with potential longer stays in places I enjoy. I'll probably try to split it somewhat evenly between the islands so 2-4 months each. That's the initial idea at least, not a plan.
What I would also very much like to do is connect with other nostriches and bitcoiners along the way. It can sometimes be quite difficult to connect with people who are stuck in the fiat matrix and seem to discount both their own abilities as well as all the beauty and potential that exists in the world.
So, before I dive deep into the selection of hostels, AirBnB's, share houses, baches and campgrounds, I was wondering if on nostr had any accommodation to offer (or know anyone that does) - it can be either from 1-2 nights up to a couple of weeks or even 1-2 months - as I said, I don't really have a set plan. It would be awesome if there was a desk and/or WiFi available as I'm combining work+travel, but for shorter periods these are not essential. I am also open for any offers from sleeping on the couch to renting a room to pitching up a tent in your backyard! In addition, I also would not mind working for accommodation (up to 20h/week) - on that note, has anybody done WWOOFing in NZ? If yes, what have been your experiences?
Even if you don't have accommodation to offer or recommend, feel free to message me anyway with your approximate whereabouts in NZ and we could just meet up for a coffee or a steak! I'll also be sure to keep an eye out for any local meetups I might come across along the way (for anybody else in NZ - Kiwi Bitcoin Guide is a great resource for anything local: https://kiwibitcoinguide.org/)
I'm also up for all sorts of recommendations regarding everything and anything about travelling around NZ - places to see, things to do, things/places to avoid, etc.
About me - if you don't know - I'm in my early thirties, currently mostly focused on building and developing my startup Satosh.ee (Satoshee (npub1p6y…wx3t)). But I also do a lot of writing & reading, yoga & calisthenics, plus some music (rapping mostly) and photography.
Tagging some Kiwi bitcoiners: npub1dtvk6tcay9drd7n7x25vl3h30eu6e590qwlysyan03pepvglc7jsupqwt2 (npub1dtv…qwt2), James Viggiano (npub17fd…c538), TIP_NZ (npub1hrc…k525), Ajax (npub1vcf…kxyw), AlcoB (npub15tw…zerk), Cody Ellingham (npub1uth…mmmu), Zed V. (npub1zed…gpek)
Cheers! 🤠

BTW in case anybody's interested, the place I mostly stayed at in Auckland was a coliving/coworking space The Coh (https://thecoh.co.nz/). Such a combination is a godsend for anybody like me who likes to combine work and play - and unfortunately, not many such places exist. Hint hint for anybody who's looking into getting into entrepreneurship 😉
