Whoo-hoo, got a flight! English, Neuseeland

Autor: Jien

Jupp, that's right :)
Sadly enough only for a month but still better than nothing
And I'm going with my bestie - how much more fun could one month at the other end of the world possibly be???
I booked our flight today - now all I have to do is pass my graduation *shivers*

Wish me luck!

The world is full of homesick kiwis... English, Neuseeland

... and I, I guess, am one among them ;__;
Seriously, it's like with that relationship you think you've defenitely overcome but as soon as you see something that reminds you it's all coming back to you and you end up extra-salting your food/coffee/whatever.
It's like a disease since I know I'm not the first one and won't be the last to be falling on it (I envy all the folk about to head over there but I also feel sorry for them because the incubate time is over for good).
Anyway, I finally found a (good!) reason for myself to graduate (since I still belong to the 75% of fortunate people who don't know what to do with themselves after the schoolish safety of being guided or drilled towards a certain aim): I'm jetting back to New Zealand and I'm not coming back until I've seen everything I wanted to and made sure I got enough new zealandishness about me to last for a few more years (without falling into depressions)
Ok, the money question will eventually set a reasonable limit to my trip but I have to fill up my LßP-stock, catch up with all the people whos addresses I still got, but who apparently never figured out how to use a keyboard in time to write me (-.-) and probably getting so lost I won't find my way back to Germany (small hopes...)
Well, who knows...

By the way, that's my house in New Zealand, which I am literally entitled to call mine as it is firstly the one I lived in most of my time in NZ, and secondly my hostmum Jeanne made it utterly clear that I am welcome there at any time - even it she's not there (eg. visiting Australia^^).
It's a great feeling to have this second home halfway around the globe where you can always come back and I guess that this is also one of the things I treasure most about my year abroad: The knowledge that you can always go away and live someplace else because you a) managed once before and b) have an alternate place to go.

Things to do when... English, Neuseeland

...I go back to New Zealand next year:

-Visit Auckland, including all my favourite places, such as:
* Pinehurst College
*Jeanne (my hostmum)
*My fellow students (still got the adresses)
*Sky Tower Auckland, to check whether the glass still holds^^
*visit the University
*by a year's stock of OREO Chocolate Cookies, L&P, Oats, as well as my newest favourite Mangas in english, plus new clothes (darn cheap there)
-Go to Russel and the 90Mile Beach
-Surfing at the Coromandel Peninsula (and doing a Dawnie, preferably)
-Do the Tongariro Crossing (last time the weather was too bad, so it was called off)
-Visit Mt. Taranaki (the new zealand Fuji-san^^)
-Go skiing on the Remarkables (Queenstown)
-F.i.n.a.l.l.y. do my bungee jump from Kawarau Bridge (Queenstown), even if it scares me to a shit. After all I promised to come back someday and finish what I've begun (partly, to overcome my fear of hights) - even though they'll probably not recall me.
-Mt. Cook
-Visit Christchurch and "Edoras"
-Go all the way down to the Milford Sound and all the other Sounds *lol*

Most of the stuff I've already done (or tried) once but since I'm going to take my boyfriend with me and I'm totally in love with all them places anyway, it won't matter.
Apart from my Auckland "insiders" I can only recommend all the above mentioned, it's DEFINITELY worth it!
