    2 hours ago by melissajack_ Ad: Our 3hr adventure into virgin native forest with  @rotoruacanopytours  was hands down, one of the best NZ tourism experiences we've ever had. Epic, super fast zip lines from 50-400m (Nix, 7, handled them like a boss!), crazy suspension bridges, fun, friendly, knowledgeable and extremely capable guides that made us feel safe and confident at all times, and of course, immersion in our stunning NZ native forest. What a bloody treat! Huge smiles all round. Make sure you swipe across to the video, Dave vs Ethan on a big, fast run. Look at the forest below . . . .

  • Ad - Seriously the best remedy after an early departure and extended drive through Auckland traffic - cutting loose and laughing your way down a hill with @zorb.rotorua. Awesome family fun, both the boys loved the experience (ages 15.5 and 7 years) and @djack and I enjoyed the peace and quiet once the boys were in their own ball and were off rolling down the hill .

Can't believe this is the first time we've visited ZORB Rotorua, it was a damn good time and would def go again! Oh, and there are hot tubs at the bottom AND top
  • AD > Yah Nixie! An ocean explorer in the making after our amazing trip to the Poor Knights Islands over the weekend. Our Kiwi kids must be some of the luckiest little people on earth to grow up surrounded by NZ’s beautiful, clean oceans. Getting out there and discovering what makes our ocean ecosystems so precious and worth protecting is an integral part of any discussion we have with our kids around conservation. Using creative play for good, the new @LEGO CITY Ocean Exploration range is a partnership with @NatGeo, contributing funds to further ocean exploration while getting our kids

Sore/tired and every movement a colossal effort lol. . . . . . . #halfmarathon #21km #nz #nzrunning #firsthalfmarathon #runnersofinstagram #mumswhorun #gorun #tuesdayrun #instastravarunning

    4 days ago by melissajack_ 16km today!! Pushing the boat out a little bit further each week. My 'Longest Ever' runs are getting gradually longer as I'm putting in more hours. 4 hrs running and almost 41km in the bank this week. I had a quiet goal to run my first half this year and I just might sneak it in Stoked to have some girls keen to start running at 7.30am on a stunning Sunday morning  @missaimeefleur   @jessicacarew  Happy with that pace at km 16 too! . . . . . .  #runningstories   #nzrunner   #16km   #halftraining   #newbalancenz   #mumswhorun   #lovetorun   #garminnz

    5 days ago by melissajack_ Ad: I completed the final online  @skinfitpen  training today & boom, ✔️✔️, my first at-home Microneedling treatment is done! Check out that post-treatment glow! The SkinFit pen, is a NZ created product, registered with Medsafe NZ and comes with everything you need to complete up to 3 Microneedling treatments at home. I've experienced this treatment multiple times in a salon so know how effective it is. I'm so happy to be able to maintain ongoing treatments at home which will keep building new collagen through the microwounds the SkinFit pen delivers to the dermal/epidermal junction. I'll pop some video up
