One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My sister and I took some Swedish couchsurfers into the New Zealand backcountry for a few days, intending to have a leisurely holiday in the wilderness. Instead, we ended up getting lost in the mountains for 2 days without food or tents, and had to traverse mountains and canyons to find our way out!
