If you’re travelling to Auckland New Zealand, here are our recommendations for restaurants, bars, local attractions and day trips.

From the thunderous tick delivered labourously through weathered mechanics to the subtle patenas that speak to a life well worn, there is just something whimsical about a vintage timepiece. Relics from a bygone era, the great watches of the past have a certain old-Hollywood glamour to them, typified by the simplistic dial design and refined functionality. Sure, trends have come and gone, with new players offering avant-garde takes on the traditional trade, but a resurgence is brewing. At Watches…

It’s amazing what a piece of paper will get you. While the one framed and hanging above Matt Hall’s desk reads Red Bull Air Race World Champion, engineering student Cameron Clark’s is folded up and origami-ed into a piece of fine art. And yet, while the two Aussies would appear to share little in common, they’re far more alike than may think and Red Bull is proving it. Through the iconic brand’s Paper Wings event, we learned that big and small aircraft require a similar level of poise. In the ev…

Not many of us can claim to have followed our boyhood dreams all the way through to fruition (just think of all the firemen, astronauts and cowboys that never were...), but for Calvin Luk, the idea of designing cars for BMW was a goal that he chased from a very early age. From intrepidly approaching a BMW employee at the Sydney Motor Show in his childhood to designing the hugely anticipated Z4 revival, Luk’s eyes-on-the-prize mentality has led him to his role as an exterior designer for the G…

Something we’ve always loved about Formula 1 racing is its ability to make a legend; a household name universally recognised whether or not you know anything about the sport. One such name, especially in Australia, is Mark Webber. The talented Aussie made his stunning F1 debut in 2002, punching well above his weight in a Minardi package that hadn’t seen in a point in over three years.

There’s always been something about Finland and racing drivers. From rallying to Formula 1, you won’t find many times where there hasn’t been a Finn at the pointy end of the standings. Is it the 350,000 kilometres of unsealed roads? Is it the fact that man starts driving after they graduate from their booster seat?
