This flight was amazing; everything I hoped it would be!

Greetings from the Isle of Pines
Short post today, because that is all this connection will allow. Alas, nobody visits New Caledonia for the Internet. We had a hectic few days of travel getting here, but all of that has been erased by some major relaxation in one of the most naturally beautiful places in the world. New podcast episode will be coming tomorrow (it won't allow me to upload), and the focus … [Read more...] about Greetings from the Isle of Pines
Living in a Fantasy Land (Mrs Jeffsetter Never Wanted to Leave)
Things were so innocent when we posed for this picture. The past few days have been a series of bad travel experiences for the Jeffsetters. Traffic jams (leading to nearly missed flights), canceled flights, miscommunication, no communication. You name it, we have experienced it over the past 3 days of travel. The good news is that we had a roof over our heads each night … [Read more...] about Living in a Fantasy Land (Mrs Jeffsetter Never Wanted to Leave)

One Last Sunset in Wanaka Before Hitting the Road [Love this Photo]
Greetings from Picton, New Zealand. We are about to take our 21 foot long campervan onto the ferry to Wellington (going from the South Island to the North).

Hyatt Place Waikiki Beach Hotel Review – Meets Expectations
Our final stop in Hawaii was Oahu. Several people told the Jeffsetters that we would hate Waikiki when we posed the "where to stay" question on our blog. That blog post gave us many ideas, and is also how we met blog contributor Kyle, who has now become a friend! Seriously, the Internet is amazing. … [Read more...] about Hyatt Place Waikiki Beach Hotel Review – Meets Expectations
Bed and Breakfast on Hawaii’s Big Island – Gluten Free House Review

This meant we had to find a place for our last three nights. I found and booked the Aloha Room at the Gluten Free House (GFH) on VRBO.com. … [Read more...] about Bed and Breakfast on Hawaii’s Big Island – Gluten Free House Review
