About this blog

So Sydney had got me accustomed to the change in temperature and lifestyle after Asia, but was I ready for the change in backpacker lifestyle? I'd heard a lot about New Zealand, but you can't fully comprehend until you see it for yourself... it is epic! Everywhere you go a backdrop of stunning scenery is staring you in the face - so much so you get quite used to it! Incredible experiences everyday and turns out I managed with sharing rooms with boys and drunken nights out quite nicely - who'd have guessed it?!
