Wellied

Before catching the bus to Wellington, we sent off a volley of Couchsurfing requests for Santiago, encouraged by the fact we were about to head off to our second ever Couchsurfing host. Finally our hours and hours of work had paid off! When we went to get the bus I obediently left my bag...

T Minus 3 (ish) days

Well, here I am on Saturday night, 3 days before I leave the country on a one-way ticket to... somewhere. The rest of my life, I guess. Early on Tuesday morning, May 12th 2009, I will wing my way over the ditch to Australia and whatever adventures await me there and beyond. It doesn't feel...

New Zealand part II

From Taupo we headed West along the "World's Forgotten Highway" - which is aptly named...there really is nothing but rolling hills for miles and miles; it was quite incredible. It made for some very windy driving along roads that were falling apart over cliffs, or had corroded down to one lane...

Heading Back North

After spending an hour sat in my car in Picton wishing they had better radio stations and cursing my obsession with being early for everything I was back on the ferry to Wellington and back to the freak show that is Rowena's Lodge for the night. Not the most exciting post ever but I just...

Trying out Blogabond

Harden Up, Princess

On account of the fact I'm a cheapskate my ferry to Picton on the south island was the Stupid O Clock ferry due to depart at 1.55am on the Saturday morning which meant I got to spend all of today chatting online, shopping for clothes that don't smell like eggs (I'm actually having to replace...

Back At Rowena's Lodge

So I was gonna hang around Taranaki for another couple of nights so I could climb that mountain but eventually I decided against it. Its a big scary mountain and I didn't want to do it on my own and anyway, Wellington has plenty of hills that resemble mountains so I headed back down to the...

Windy Welly

Came across to Wellington on the ferry a couple of days ago. The journey out of Picton through the Marlborough Sounds is beautiful. And I've finally found somewhere in New Zealand that has a bit of dynamism and vibrancy to it (admittedly that's what people normally come here to get away from)....

One Month In The Capital

With Wellington being the nation's capital an all that there are plenty of things to do to keep you entertained and some of them don't even involve alcohol. Most do involve coffee on account of the copious amounts of cafes, each one with its little fan club that claims it does the Best Coffee In...

Random Nuggets Of Information #5

Getting to a new place and Settling In means I haven't had a great deal to blog about that doesn't involve stress and/or drinking. Fortunately my ego is big enough to continue telling the world all about me me me whether they're interested or not so brace yourself for a few paragraphs all about...
