Hej hej from the rails! I’m Chloé — a Kiwi travel creator exploring the world one awkward train moment at a time. My husband Ludvig (dry humour, Swedish passport) joins when he can.

Together, we seek out the quirkiest journeys, comfiest cabins, and always squeeze in a touch of luxury when we can (okay, that part’s mostly my idea 😅). We’re all about making travel fun, relatable, and a little bit weird — with a side of scenic magic. 💛

From epic train rides and cruises to offbeat road trips and all sorts of unexpected detours in between, we love showing you what it’s really like to explore the world — the good, the awkward, and the occasionally sleep-deprived. Whether it’s a luxury rail journey, a ferry to somewhere random, or a rental car adventure through tiny towns, we’re here for the ride.

Who’s been enjoying our NZ series so far? 🇳🇿

It’s been so nice slowing things down a bit, exploring our own backyard, and (very honestly) saving a little bit of money while doing it… because as you can probably imagine… it costs a lot to fly anywhere out of New Zealand hahaha.

We’ve absolutely loved making these — they feel a little different, a little more grounded… but still full of adventure.

It’s also been really interesting seeing the views a bit lower on these videos — and honestly, we completely expected that going into it. We knew they might not explode, but we were still so committed to making this series because New Zealand is such a special place, and something we’ve always wanted to share properly with the world.

And if you’re here for the trains… don’t fret.
We have heeeeeaaaaaps of train content coming your way this year 🚆

New episode tomorrow morning ☀️

We just finished the Abel Tasman 3-day hike… and I did NOT expect it to feel like this.

One minute we were walking on sand dunes
Next minute… wading through the ocean
Then suddenly deep in the forest
And then those unreal turquoise bays just appear out of nowhere

We did the luxury version (boats + lodges + wine… don’t worry, still plenty of walking 😂) and it might have swayed Ludvig....

Going live tomorrow at 5:00am NZ time (yes… I’ll be half asleep at the airport)

Episode 6 of Little Wild New Zealand is dropping this weekend… and I went full Middle-earth for this one 🧝‍♀️

I explored real Lord of the Rings filming locations in the South Island with Nomad Safaris in a 4WD — through remote valleys, dangerous roads, deep rivers and witnessed some of the most unreal landscapes I’ve ever seen in New Zealand.

I may or may not have taken it a bit too seriously… (there was a cape involved)

This one feels really special. Can’t wait for you to see it 🤍

🌊 EPISODE 5 DROPS TOMORROW… and this one is a little bit special

We’re staying all the way at the bottom of New Zealand —
but this time, it's Stewart Island… by sea. On a tiny expedition ship for 8 days 👀

Think:
🦭 Sea lions everywhere
🛶 Kayaking into hidden coves
🕊 Albatross flying right past your face
🌧 No fixed plan… just following the wild

This isn’t your typical “cruise” episode.
It’s slower, more remote, and honestly… one of the coolest and most unique experiences we’ve ever had in NZ.

There are 11 episodes total, and we’re right in the middle of it now 👀

👉 Episode goes live tomorrow — come watch it with us!!

We’ve been quietly working on something behind the scenes… 👀

We just launched our brand new newsletter: Train Snacks 🚆

It’s basically all the little things we don’t always fit into videos —
tiny travel tips, random stories, unexpected finds… and a bit of chaos.

We’re also doing a little launch giveaway (3 of our favourite luxury sleep masks!) if you join before the deadline 🤍 30th March

Would genuinely mean the world if you signed up — first issue coming very soon!!

Hey guys! 👋🏼

A lot of you always ask how I get those “drone” shots when I’m travelling… and honestly, it’s mostly thanks to my Insta360 X5. I use it all the time — it’s basically become my right-hand man on every trip 😅

Just a heads up — they’re actually running a Spring Sale right now!
You can get up to 15% off the X5 + a FREE Mic Air (which is the little Bluetooth mic I’ve been using lately and I LOVE it).

If you’ve been thinking about getting one, now’s a really good time!

👉 Use code CHLOE360
👉 Or grab it here: www.insta360.com/sal/x5?utm_source=AffiliateCenter…

(we make a small commission on any sales through this link and it really helps with my coffee addiction...)

Let me know if you have any questions about how I use it in my videos — happy to share! 🎥

WE ACTUALLY DID IT 😳

Our 100K celebration video is LIVE!!

You guys voted… so we travelled all the way to Kyoto, Japan to get a tattoo that you chose (still can’t believe we followed through 😂)

This one turned into a full adventure — trains across Japan, shrines, VERY busy tourist spots… and something VERY weird we saw on the street at the end 😅

Also… thank you. Seriously. 100,000 of you being here is just wild and we’re so grateful for every single one of you 💛

Would LOVE to know — how long have you been watching? When did you find us?

Go watch the video here 👇

Tomorrow’s episode of Little Wild New Zealand might be one of the most magical ones yet.

Instead of just visiting Milford Sound during the day… we stayed overnight on a ship in the fjord.

Once the day boats leave, the whole place changes.

The water goes completely still.
The mountains disappear into mist.
And it suddenly feels very small and very wild out there.

Episode 3 — Milford Sound Overnight Cruise — goes live tomorrow.

I can’t wait for you to see this one. 🌿
