“The road goes ever on and on, down from the door where it began. Now far ahead the road has gone, and I must follow, if I can.” - J.R.R. Tolkien ———————————————————— 📍The Shire-Hobbiton, Matamata, New Zealand. After exploring the Southern Island of New Zealand, I rented a car and drove across the southern half of the North Island. While adventuring, I visited the set where the Lord of the Rings & The Hobbit was filmed. Stepping onto the farm that houses The Shire- Hobbiton, was like stepping into my imagination. This was a special experience because J.R.R Tolkien books played a major part in my childhood. The Green Dragon Inn had just opened, serving food and beer, two weeks before my visit, so I was able to have a drink in the pub, a place I had only ever conjured in my minds eye. #lwtgtravel . . . . . #Hobbiton #Theshire #greendragoninn #Lordoftherings #newzealand #newzealandfinds #travel #seetheworld #worldtravel #wanderlust #travelphotography #travelmore #simplyadventure #lovetotravel #wonderfulplaces #solotravel #doyoutravel #travelgram #discoverglobe #globetrotting #adventurethatislife #neverstopexploring #traveldiaries #travellershouts #TheGlobeWanderer #canon #traveldeeper (at Hobbiton, the Shire) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bqi9jJZnPIA/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=15wmf6jfjl85z
