pandacub travels to...Aotearoa (New Zealand)

The lovely thesewphist left a comment that pandacub travels should visit New Zealand, also known as Aotearoa in the Maori language. Aotearoa roughly translates into "the land of the long white cloud" - how beautiful is that? With that stunning image in mind, plus the fact that my favourite movies of all time (the Lord of the Rings trilogy) was filmed here, how could I resist?

So here are some lovely Etsy items inspired by New Zealand and others from New Zealand-based sellers.
