The Hitchhikers Guide to AotearoaThe Hitchhikers Guide to Aotearoa Author: Charlie Ryan
You've heard the postcard version of New Zealand. This isn't that. The Hitchhiker's Guide to Aotearoa is a travelling interview show hosted by Charlie Ryan an American on a year-long adventure across New Zealand giving the mic to people this country doesn't usually spotlight: immigrants and travellers actually living the story. We take you through it all: the arrival, the culture shock, the one experience that changed everything good, bad, and disastrous. For every best decision there's a flat tyre on a gravel road at midnight, and this show won't hide one to flatter the other. It's the honest shape of building a life somewhere new. Each episode closes with a twist: the guest turns the tables and interviews Charlie putting the American host on the hot seat about his own life abroad. Whether you're an immigrant who sees your story here, a Kiwi curious what outsiders think, or just someone who loves a good travel story pull up a chair. There's always room for one more.
