209 Grey Street, Hamilton East Hamilton, North Island, New Zealand, 64-7-856-9029
Well, I've made it here to Hamilton. The flight was a breeze, thanks to Schweppes Ginger Ale; customs wasn't, thanks to a rogue Pink Lady apple that had somehow strayed into my rucksack and is probably going to cost me a $200 fine unless I can somehow manage to wriggle my way out of it. The shuttle from Auckland airport to Hamilton worked fine; I went direct to my University 'mentor's' home where I was fed wonderful homemade minestrone soup together with wonderful homemade Finnish Pirakka wit...
Hamilton, North Island, New Zealand hilarya... use many facial expressions to try and intimate the enemy... which is part of the reason why they have the facial tattoos as well. The dancers bulge out there eyes and stick out their tongue to try to look mean. They almost look kind of possessed so i guess it is successful in intimidating. Some of the men have full facial tatoos that represent 4 different birds, the kiwi, the owl, the parrot and the bat... all having different ...
Raglan, North Island, New Zealand sarahandwill... products that claimed the lives of at least six babies and left 296,000 others with various urinary tract ailments, including kidney stones. Tian appeared calm during her 25-minute hearing in court, and her lawyer Liu Xinwei was not surprised with the sentence. "So far we haven't decided whether to appeal," Liu said. Several media organizations were allowed inside the Shijiazhuang court during the trial, though many parents of children who fell ill were denied entry. Police ...
Hamilton, North Island, New Zealand happysheep... pretty good (it was the first time the younger guy had ever tried baking anything) and they couldn't have been nicer. They asked where we were headed next. When we said we were about to drive south to Tangariro National Park, the older of the two chuckled, shared a look with his friend, and said, "There's a state prison down there that we're both familiar with." New Zealand: Where even the felons are nice!
Raglan, North Island, New Zealand intrepidfred... of three hundred could have. I have learned some invaluable lessons. I think, finally, my Dad was able to see just how fascinating travel and hostel life can be when we were sitting with some girls from Sweden talking about their lives there - the economy, the politics, the geography. So much more interesting and real when you're hearing it from someone who lives there rather than reading about it in a book. In my opinion, this is the best education I could be giving myself ...
Hamilton, New Zealand karsenault... I've been staying with Emily and Kevin and been shown real NZ life in Hamilton and Tauranga. So, that's the physical stuff I've done. But it's the place that's left such an incredible impression. Every drive between stuff hits you with another vista of mountains, plains, valleys, forests, phenomenal skies, bays, sea views, usually about 10 eagle-type birds, etc. And of course I'm peering out wondering if that bit was in the Lord of the Rings ...
Hamilton, North Island, New Zealand sannagartonHi Everyone Well we have started our Stray bus tour!. With anticipation we turned up to the pickup point on Monday morning dreading the fact that we might be the only 2 people on the bus, when one Non English speaking person showed up and then we were told there were only 5 people on the bus we started to panic, but luckily they were on about the wrong bus and there is ...
Raglan, New Zealand jparker... let go of her board as a huge wave passed underneath us and it slammed me in the back. Big bruise. Nasty. All too soon the lesson was over - we'd spent the best part of two hours in the water, and although I was tired and hungry, I couldn't stop thinking about getting back in the water and practicing some more. One of the girls in the group lived in Auckland so we promised to meet up and go surfing one weekend when I was back there.
Raglan, New Zealand michelleab... about 12 of us, and besides me the only two other native English speakers there were Peaches and Brett, the housing manager of Orchard Park. There were people there from the Solomon Islands, the Philippines, Indonesia, and China. A few of them had brought their families and were going to be staying here for the course of their degree, I think. I met some really nice people. A lot of them are what we would have called non-traditional students, but I think that's how it works for a lot of ...
Hamilton, New Zealand randiandersen... amazing view over the Tasmanian Sea. Beautiful!
Notre plan est de visiter l'ile du Nord jusqu'a la mi-fevrier, date a laquelle nous sommes invites au mariage de Matt et Tina aux alentours d'Auckland. A partir du mois de Fevrier, nous visiterons l'ile du Sud. Il faudra aussi penser a travailler un peu pour reenflouer les comptes. Ce ne sera pas chose facile apres plusieurs mois de vacances.
