I recently visited Christchurch<\/span><\/a> and was blown away by how much things have changed. Yes the city is still in need of some love but there’s a vibe there that is hubble bubble toil and trouble. New shops, cafes, great food, art, business, tech. Here’s some of the places I visited and some of the must do’s to do.<\/p>\n

To eat:<\/p>\n

Sals NY Pizza<\/span><\/a> was a just needed carbohydrate injection when I arrived in the city. Located 146 Litchfield Street, Christchurch. Massive slices of pizza with so much CHEESE. Satiated and happy.<\/p>\n

Pot Sticker Dumplings<\/span><\/a> in two locations -The Columbo and Lichfield Street So delicious and don’t stop at two!<\/p>\n

\"Christchurch<\/a>

I could have been in New York Y’all<\/p><\/div>\n

To lounge:<\/p>\n

I headed out in my trusty Mini ‘Norman’ from Touchdown<\/span><\/a> Car Rentals and shot over to Sumner Beach. Breathe deep people! It was a stunner of a day and the wind and water were perfect! There were dogs, people a loungin’ and it felt like Summer was on it’s way!<\/p>\n

Down a street (Sumner) I found a little path leading to mountain bike and running trails a plenty! Heading up up and more up and I could see the sea! It was glorious and warm and time for some more food!<\/p>\n

\"Christchurch<\/a>

Sumner Beach<\/p><\/div>\n

\"Christchurch<\/a>

Secret tracks and trails! Sumner<\/p><\/div>\n

To shop:<\/p>\n

On the way out of town I drove over to The Tannery<\/span><\/a>\u00a0as I’d heard good things. Small but mighty shops a plenty including some of my favourite from Instagram. Hapa<\/span><\/a> for all things lovely, Kilt<\/span><\/a>\u00a0Clothing for all your New Zealand made clothing needs, Teepee<\/span><\/a> and more design stores than you could shake a shaky stick at.<\/p>\n

\"Christchurch<\/a>

The beautiful interior of The Tannery<\/p><\/div>\n

\"Christchurch<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Christchurch<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Christchurch<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Christchurch<\/a><\/p>\n

The Columbo<\/span> <\/a>was also somewhere I’d heard holler to me on Instagram<\/span><\/a> and so I headed over to stuff my face full of Pot Sticker Dumplings<\/span><\/a>, lovely things to buy from Abode<\/span><\/a> and bags a plenty from Stencil.<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

\"Christchurch<\/a>

The Columbo<\/p><\/div>\n

\"Christchurch<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Christchurch<\/a><\/p>\n

To grow your mind:<\/p>\n

Another reason for Christchurch is a project I’m working on (shhhh) and I popped into The amazing Ministry of Awesome<\/span> <\/a>to use their meeting space. A wonderful organisation committed to bringing ideas and people together.<\/p>\n

\"Christchurch<\/a><\/p>\n

Yes Christchurch you really are special. So much more to visit when I return and some ideas for others to go and see!<\/p>\n
