Our next stop after Queenstown was Dunedin. We were in a bit of a hurry to get to the North Island now, as we wanted to see as much as possible while we were there and Ali only had just over a week left until his flight to Fiji. We therefore decided ... Read more >

My flight to New Zealand was uneventful and fairly relaxing. I arrived into Christchurch at 3pm, local time. Upon decent the pilot told us that it was 10 degrees that day and as I stepped out of the airport and onto a bus the temperature was a bit of ... Read more >

Dear Readers, Please accept my sincere appologies for the delay in the update. I don't really know what happened in Australia but I was unmotivated, which is naughty. Now in New Zealand I will ensure that my blog is kept up to date more frequently so ... Read more >

Again, I have got a lot of Blog writing to catch up on! We have been so busy doing various trips, that catching up has had to take a backseat. I doubt i'll have time to get fully up to date in one go, but i'll try my best! We made our way to the harbour ... Read more >

My flight to Australia was successful and uneventful (I find planes so much less complicated than buses). I still get the feeling of excitement and anticipation of going on holiday when i'm in an airport - even after being on holiday for 3 months. I ... Read more >

As I expected my week on Koh Phangan was extremely lazy and we spent
the week by the pool, reading, wandering and partying. Being a small

Wow. I have got a whole lot of blogging to catch up on. The past 18days have been unbelieveably amazing, extremely busy, exhausting, educational and eye opening. The only place to start is the beginning - as Julie Andrews taught me, so it's back to Saturday ... Read more >

I have just read all my comments from everyone. It's so nice to hear from you all! Slightly scary at the amount of people who are actually reading -I feel under pressure to get all my spellings right! But nice that people are taking an interest and haven't ... Read more >

The lack of Blog writing this week has been sown to yet another failure. I spent ages writing an update of my weekend and day on Monday, only for it not to save. So I have been building up the courage and working out new tactics since then, so here goes.... Read more >
