Aiko and Jack go to Queenstown midway through November 2010, partly to celebrate Aiko's birthday, partly Jack's, but really just to have a nice break before Jack's busy tourist season starts. They have fun - they eat and drink too much, go on a LOTR tour with Nomad Safari, ride on the Gondola, race on the Luge, and generally just enjoy the gorgeous weather.

In June 2012, Jack & Aiko take a month off work and head to the country where Jack was born - the Netherlands. When they first met, Aiko had shown Jack around her native Japan, and this time it was Jack's turn to show her where he came from. They behave totally like tourists, and have an awesome time! They stay in Appingedam, Groningen City, and Amsterdam, but visit a few other places as well. On the way back they stop off in Singapore for a few days.

In 2013, Aiko & Jack return to Japan. It is Jack's second time in Aiko's motherland (their first trip there was back in 2005). A lot has changed, and a lot has stayed the same as well. The food is great as ever, and Jack doesn't seem quite so out of place as last time. They have an awesome time. Again.
