NZ Adventures – Claremont Castle – The Traitors

In general, I’m not into reality TV, but I will admit to watching The Traitors (UK). It’s a fascinating study of human nature – how we react when thrust into intense, adversarial situations.

So there we were, February 2025, in Timaru (a quaint town on the south island in New Zealand), when I learned the grand old house we were staying at was the location for the 2nd season of Traitors New Zealand.

Rob owns the house, and he would come down most evenings, sit with us by the fire and regale us with some really crazy stories. One of them was that they had filmed the whole season right there. Three weeks of film crews, traitors and faithfuls, and a promise to not say a word about who got banished or murdered.

Things in New Zealand are always fun and often unexpected, but this was over the top. Loved it.
