About Adam

I’m Adam, an explorer based in Christchurch, New Zealand, with a love for adventure, open roads, and the great outdoors. My ideal weekend? Somewhere remote, under a sky full of stars, with a campfire crackling and no cell phone reception in sight.

From 2017 to 2019, my wife and I spent two years travelling the world, chasing adventure through Mexico, South America, and Eastern Europe. We explored some of the most incredible and rugged landscapes, from the vast Uyuni Salt Flats in Bolivia to the winding backroads of the Balkans.

Then, in January 2019, while running on a snowy street in Croatia, I was hit by a car. Thankfully, I walked away unharmed—but that moment changed everything. As I made my way back to our apartment, I had a realization: life is too short to be spent wandering unfamiliar roads alone. I didn’t want my story to end in a foreign country. I wanted to spend my time exploring New Zealand—the place I love—sharing adventures with family, friends, and like-minded explorers.

Now, through Jimny NZ and Jimny Rentals, I get to help others experience the magic of New Zealand’s wild places. Whether it’s camping beneath the Southern Alps or discovering remote gravel roads, I believe adventure should be simple, accessible, and unforgettable.

Let’s get out there and explore!

Right: in 2018 we explored the Uyuni salt flat in Bolivia, the largest area of flat land in the world.

At Jimny NZ, we’re all about adventure—pure, simple, and unforgettable. Whether you're chasing remote mountain roads, exploring rugged coastlines, or setting up camp under a star-filled sky, a Suzuki Jimny is the perfect companion for your journey.

For those who own their own Jimny, Jimny NZ provides the best accessories and gear to make every adventure even better. From rooftop tents to camping setups and off-road essentials, we help Jimny owners get the most out of their 4WD, whether they’re hitting gravel roads, ski fields, or remote campsites.

For those looking to experience the Jimny lifestyle without owning one, Jimny Rentals offers fully-equipped Jimnys for hire. Each rental comes with rooftop tents, camp chairs, fridges, and more, making it easy to escape the city and explore New Zealand’s most stunning destinations.

Compact, capable, and adventure-ready — Jimny NZ and Jimny Rentals are here to help you make the most of every journey.
