Kia ora and welcome to Ramblings, a fairly random collection of travel yarns, stories and photographs by Peter de Graaf.

I’m a newspaper reporter/photographer and occasional travel writer based in Kerikeri, a town of about 6000 people in New Zealand’s Far North. When I’m not tinkering with this blog I work for the Northern Advocate, a regional daily paper based in the city of Whangārei.
