NEW ZEALAND SCENE
AFTER travelling an average of about _ 20,000 miles a year for the past six years, Robert Allender believes that travel is not nearly as dull as many travelogue writers make it sound, but that it isn’t necessarily broadening, "It all depends upon the sensitivity of the traveller," he says. "On a lonely tropica] beach last year I shared-a bungalow with a man who had just spent £3000 on a 12 weeks’ tour visiting 16 countries. I asked him which place he found amusing. This, he said, he liked best of all-because the seashells were so nice." Always attracted by New- Zealand scenes, Mr. Allender is soon to broadcast from 1YC a series of impressions of this country, under the title Land of Our Living. Among his subjects are Taranaki, Manapouri, Hanmer, Rotorua, Nelson and the North Island Main Trunk.
