Each episode, Trip Notes hosts Stephanie Holmes and Tim Roxborogh are joined by a special guest to talk all about travel. On this episode, brought to you by House of Travel, we chat with Newstalk ZB and TVNZ presenter Jack Tame.

He's been back living in New Zealand for a few years now, but Jack previously spent five years living in New York as 1 News' US correspondent. Is living in the city that never sleeps really as exciting as we imagine it would be? And, how magical is it at Christmas? Jack has all the answers.

We also talk about Jack's incredible travels - he's only 32 but he's already been to all seven continents - and the places he's yet to discover.

Plus, as we round up our final episode for the year, we've got the lowdown on all the places you should be putting on your travel wish-list for 2020.
