    Hi Tacomaworld!

    The fiancée and I are planning our honeymoon for beginning of September in 2020. We are think of flying into New Zealand from LAX, renting a small travel van, and dirtbagging for a week (probably just stay on the north Island) and then taking a flight to Fiji for some R&R for a week.

    Looking for any and all recommendations on must see’s, do’s, places to camp in the van, and tips on daily budget.

    thanks all!
