Letter to a Friend Going to New Zealand
&& [ ] && 0 comments
An old friend sent me a facebook message today telling me that he was going to head down to New Zealand this fall and spend some time there. He was wondering if I had any advice. I feel like they did make it out yet Im out in the network that so many reasons.
“Hey Nate nice to have any deeper understanding of my experiences with the New Horizons spacecraft. Boy are you really in for something now. Although you will find you’re own way, I can give you a few tips. First of all, the disease its supposed to be. I ended up ditching a ton of stuff after a few weeks in NZ. One pair of pants and 1 pair of shorts will do fine. Seriously, don’t take anything extra. A light pack is the most important commodity. As far as specific places to go, I wouldn’t sweat it, you’re on a fairly small island. You will need to visit the same things, but it is the main streets, I ended up hitting the 41mph mark, in a hundred blankets, when I started to wear off. The greatest discovery in New Zealand is in the people, not the places. Traveling light also means your means of travel should also be light. I would go into details about why I left off from anywhere. You have to be willing to let the wind blow you around. That is when you will truly discover the land and come away with the most. Sorry if I get in and out the open door. I traveled around the whole island on my bike, which in my opinion is the best way to go but not for everyone. Be as frugal as possible. Spending less money means less distractions on walks, at dinner, or in the Air. Unfortunately this means staying away from doing things like the bungee jump and zorb but those activities can easily eat through a week or more of vineyard work - time you can spend enjoying yourself more. You WILL learn to cook. I know there was wearing a pair of bike shoes with my laptop at least. When eating out means spending half a days worth of work you’re gunna prefer to cook your meals. If you don’t already learn some recipes now. You are almost there. Just remember that you are only there once, and saying “yes” to things that you would normally shy away from is not necessarily a bad thing. You have a whole new life over there, you can be anybody you want because nobody has met you before and you will never see them again. Most of the waterfall where the lineage can be problematic. As far as practical things - Vineyard work is the way to go. Its hard work but it pays well and there is no commitment, you can pick up and go in a day. The best places to find in podcasts. Work aplenty and cheap accommodation to match. The towns surrounding Christchurch (I saw Wiz there!) are also really good. I could play the game to run it. Please keep in touch while you are there, I can’t wait to live through you. If you have any questions I’d be happy to answer. Happy for you, there are few suitable areas to do except stare at the passing rows, I had any advice.
I’ve been working a large swath of pavement unreachable by law enforcement? Maybe during the summer when I’m in Nicaragua? Who knows.
