Balance & Inspiration
We all have times when we must dig deep to get through the day, carry on, and carry forward, or even get out of bed. When you are going through change, sometimes it is difficult to find the balance you need to push the reset button and see the glass half-full rather than half empty. This segment of My Super Awesome Life is dedicated to inspiring;
​
-
Clarity of thought so you can find answers when you need them
-
Strength to handle things when they are upside down, not right side up
-
Courage to advocate for yourself and others in difficult situations
-
Strength to help you let go when all you want to do is hold on, and help you hold on when all you want to do is let go
-
Stories and ideas to help you find balance and fun in your life
-
Encouragement to believe in yourself and keep moving forward, so you can make your ideas happen and come out a winner in the game of life

Hosts Denise & Bruce Bryce
77 Duncan Rd, Walton, Matamata 3474, NZ
ph: 078809268
​
Bruce and Denise are incredible hosts and incredibly knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the area and art. They will welcome you with warm hearts and for breakfast Bruce’s famous fresh warm out of the oven croissants and George Clooney coffee. You will love their beautifully decorated home and of course don’t forget to spend time with “the girls”
Wellington
12 Bolton St, Wellington, 6011, NZ
ph: 44729966
​
Had a great stay at the Bolton Hotel centrally located and well appointed with a hip little coffee bar in the lobby, great gym and pool. Good for families, executives and couples as some rooms are apartment style where everyone can spread out and have their own space.
Kaikoura
170 Esplanade Apt #1, Kaikoura Canterbury NZ
Hosts: Lynette and Gary Schott
Hosts Lyn and Gary are awesome and so is their beautiful Golden Labrador Retriever Alexa This two-bedroom apartment is super clean with a fantastic seaside view and an abundance of activities within walking distance in Kaikoura. Go sea kayaking with dolphins and seals with Kaikoura Kayaks or take a leisurely stroll along the sea wall; all outside your door!
Lake Tekapo
​
State Highway 8, Lake Tekapo, South Island 7945, NZ
ph: 800 275 373
Great upscale condo accommodation and tasty buffet breakfast option. The full kitchen is super for families or couples but if you want to cook don’t forget to stock up on groceries before you arrive because there is not a grocery store for miles.
Queenstown
Doc Wells Lane Luxury Apartment
63 Andrews Rd 7 Doc Wells Lane
Queenstown, Otago 9300, NZ
Queenstown town has tons of motels and hotels, but we found a super Two-bedroom air B and B that was just great and within walking distance of Queenstown. Parking is scarce in Queenstown and expensive so if you have a vehicle, ensure you get accommodation that offers parking.
Milford Sound
Milford Sound Lodge
State Highway 94 Milford Sound, NZ
ph: 32498071
Milford Sound is truly breathtaking World Heritage Sight and home of Fiord lands National Park. It is a must see but very remote. You can stay about 50 km away in the nearest town of Te Anau but if you can, try to get a reservation for camping or accommodation at the Milford Sound Lodge. Reservations are a MUST as the Milford Sound Lodge is the only hotel/motel in town.
