Everything in your past has succeeded in bringing you here today
Penny moved out over the past week (she's moved in with her boyfriend, so all the best to them. ), and so I'm now hunting for a flatmate. I've actually been hunting for the past week, but strangely enough, haven't … Read more …
Well, I got back from the road trip on the 24th March, and I hung out with Mel until the 30th, when she caught her flight to Vancouver in Canada (via Auckland – Los Angeles – Vancouver). I've been spending … Read more …
I'm back home. YAY! The holiday was fantastic, but damn, it's good to be home. Ok, yesterday we travelled from Taupo to Napier in Hawkes Bay. Before we left Taupo we went to a place called Huka Falls, where we … Read more …

Ok, we woke up around 7:45am, had breakfast in the kitchen of the backpackers, and then drove around New Plymouth for a while, looking at the beaches and stuff. We walked along a wharf at the ‘Taranaki Marina’ and then … Read more …
