Well, ive travelled the north and south island of NZ and am waiting to hear about a job on a yacht which will have me sailing around the south pacific for around 8 months. Im heading off to Australia for a month on Tuesday for a change of scenery, luckily its only a cheap city hop for me.
Loving it, having the time of my life.
Ben.

My days are so difficult. The earliest i've got out of bed since November last year is like 9am, my days are filled by exploring places and relaxing on the beach. Its tough at the top you know

Can't get my head around this pic:

Looks like you're in the bottom of a valley and there's a wall of water coming at you

The picture in question (2nd photo) is of the Mcnaught Comet, visable only in the southern hemisphere a few weeks ago. It was way cool.

A1EX - Hopefully i'll be in SE Asia for a few months, it depends on what happens with the boat im trying to get on though.
Colin - I was supposed to do the heli hike but it got cancelled due to low cloud so we just hiked to the glacier instead.
No I didnt make it to Stewart Island. Theres a few places on the Sth. Island that I didnt get to, but I will be travelling round Australazia again in a couple of years and will get to the places I didnt get to before.
Ben.
