How it all started for me…and the lifestyle I enjoy now.

My fascination and enthusiasm for China,New Zealand and travelling has become an enjoyable and rewarding new focus - a move that changed and enhanced my life.

In essence, my "hobby" is now helping to support me, instead of me supporting it.
 
Enquiries for my Real-China and Real New Zealand holidays and tours are now coming in from all over the world.
 
I now have many satisfied guests who’s Real-China and Real New Zealand holidays have gone smoothly and who have enjoyed their China and New Zealand experience.

My Background
 
After exploring around the world for over 15 years (including 3 months backpacking rural China), I returned to New Zealand to become a salesman for a muli-national electronics company with offices in New Zealand.
 
My job was to set up and train distributor-based sales forces within Asia-Pacific, and implementing procedures to develop each cell into an effective wholesale agent for my company's products.
 
I was responsible for the AP markets of Taiwan, Japan, Korea, Thailand, Philippines, Singapore, Indonesia and Pakistan and became a "frequent traveller" throughout the region. I also made regular trips to the US and Europe; I was "on the road" a lot....Great Fun.
 
Actually it was... I enjoyed my 2 years contract and learned a lot about business, people, different cultures etc.
 
However all good things come to an end. With all the procedures in place and the people and businesses developing nicely, I had done myself out of a job and my contract was not renewed.  So ...time to move on.

I liked Shanghai so much I decided to stay for a while to see what turned up. Maybe it was time for a career change. Maybe it was time to try something really different.
 
I have always enjoyed travelling and had travelled extensively within New Zealand as well as all over the world.
 
With this passion for travel and seeing new places, and I saw China and New Zealand Tourism as a growing business… maybe this would be an opportunity for me. 

I looked at many China travel web-sites and New Zealand travel websites and whilst all were full of information, most gave me the impression of being in the “mass-production” travel business.
 
Visiting Real-China as well as having a Real-New Zealand experience is becoming difficult; it’s a shame so many people have not been fully satisfied with their tours because of complacent planning, basic standardised itineraries and big shopping trips.   

Please let me and Travel-the-Real-NZ help you make your visit to New Zealand a trip of a lifetime, to see and experience New Zealand as it should be seen.

Happy Travelling
