So I am currently on fall break and can only write a tiny bit as my internet is running out. But I already have successfully completed my first 5 day backpacking trip in the Abel Tasman National Park (look it up- it's gorgeous) and have been spending the last 3 dayts in the Marlborough region visiting vineyards for a school fieldtrip. It's a rough life I know. And now we are about to leave for the West Coast of NZ for an overnight trek to a rock type stadium thing called "the ballroom". Not sure on the details just know it's supposed to be epic. Then from there a quick day in Queenstown aka the adrenaline capital of NZ for some canyon swinging/bunjee jumping (maybe) and then off to another 4 day trip through teh Fiordlands on the Keplar Track! It'll be chily so let's hope my warm weather gear is adequate enough!! THen finishing up the break with a run through Dunedin next weekend to visit Allie again and get some college student bar hopping in. I can't believe how much we are trying to fit in to the break but it's so worth it beause this country is gorgeous and i just know it wants me to see as much of it as i can. Good things have been happening at home too as my friend Mackenzie and my family are both in the process of booking tickets to come see me so really I'm just exploring the countryside for them- gotta know what's good to do when they get here!
If you're reading this, know that I miss you immensely and won't be checking fb/email for another week probably so will respond to those posts then.
Love to all!!!
