MY HOLIDAY TONY SMALL

-

What was your greatest holiday?

I went to Croatia this year and was blown away by its beauty.

And the worst?

I don’t think I’ve had a bad holiday. I’ve definitely had some interestin­g experience­s..

If we bump into you on holiday, what are you most likely to be doing?

If it’s hot, I’ll be at the beach, swimming, reading, eating or enjoying a glass of rose´ . If it’s cold I’ll most likely be snowboardi­ng.

If we could teleport you to one place in

New Zealand for a week-long holiday, where would it be?

At the peak of summer I’d go camping in Russell or on the Coromandel.

How about for a dream holiday internatio­nally?

Palace on Wheels in India sounds amazing! It’s an eight-day tour starting and ending in Delhi.

What’s the dumbest thing you’ve ever done when travelling?

Getting into an unmarked taxi in China was interestin­g. I’d just arrived at an airport from NZ and took the first taxi offered to me. The driver tried to scam me for money before we’d even left the airport. On the way to the hotel he ended up getting out of the car to pick a fight with the driver stopped at the lights in front of us. We made it to the hotel but it was the longest 30 minutes of my life.

Aisle seat or window seat?

Aisle.

What’s the best travel tip you’ve ever been given?

On a long-haul flight limit the food you eat, drink loads of water, avoid alcohol and get in some exercise when you arrive.
