It’s been awhile since I’ve shared what I’m listening to these days, for which there are many excuses…mainly that I’ve been procrastinating. I have to admit that I’m slightly embarrassed by the music choices I’ve made recently because in the past I’ve judged others for listening to the same music. I’ve been listening to pop…aContinue reading “What I’m Listening to… a Confession”

Beast Epic – Iron & Wine
I have been running a little behind on new releases since my life has been a little bit crazy this past month. What with coming back from camp and choosing to make some big changes in my life I have been struggling to sit down and write. But here I am and let’s jump intoContinue reading “Beast Epic – Iron & Wine”
Fleet Foxes at Red Rocks
A few weeks ago I had the privilege of checking something off of my bucket list. Ever since I was given a DVD of Mumford and Son’s 2012 Red Rocks performance for my birthday I have been dying to go. In August of this year I had a trip planned to visit my aunt andContinue reading “Fleet Foxes at Red Rocks”
I’m Still Here!
Hello All, It’s been several months since my last post and I wanted to let you know that I’m still here! Coming back from New Zealand was a pretty difficult for me. I came back and dropped right into a deep depression which culminated in me recognizing my anxiety, but thankfully I have a greatContinue reading “I’m Still Here!”
Nearly The End
We are nearing the end of our long adventure, just two full days left! The three of us are definitely feeling the last of our excited travel energy slip away as the days seem to drag by. We are done living out of backpacks, walking the long road into town from where the car isContinue reading “Nearly The End”
It’s a Dangerous Business Going Out Your Door
On Monday we ventured into the world of the Fiord Lands National Park. Our friend Jonny, who we’ve been staying with in Queenstown lent us his car, and we spent the nearly three hour drive gazing at the beautiful scenery and becoming increasingly grateful that we weren’t on a bus. The three of us pulledContinue reading “It’s a Dangerous Business Going Out Your Door”
Short Cut to What? Mushrooms!
We left Gisborne on Wednesday and after a 10 hour bus ride finally made it to Wellington. We managed to survive the trip with the help of lots of snacks (mostly Cadbury Oreo stuffed chocolate) and lots of sleep. We are lucky to have a friend who lives in the heart of Wellington so we’veContinue reading “Short Cut to What? Mushrooms!”
I Am No Man
It’s been a little while since my last post as we have been traveling around and wifi is tricky as I’ve mentioned before. We left our place in Rotorua on Tuesday and rode the bus to Gisborne where our new host picked us up. Our place here is very different from the one in Rotorua.Continue reading “I Am No Man”
Hobbits? Four Hobbits!
Yesterday was a very special day for the three of us. Yesterday we fufilled a dream that has been with us since the Fellowship of the Ring came out in 2001. We went to Hobbiton! Tours from Rotorua leave several times a day so our host dropped us off in town around 8am where weContinue reading “Hobbits? Four Hobbits!”
The Road Goes Ever On and On
One thing that I enjoy about traveling is becoming aware of things that I take for granted back home and how they differ from other countries. It’s such a struggle to find free wifi that actually works here in New Zealand. I haven’t figured out why that is yet, but I’m determined to. There’s onlyContinue reading “The Road Goes Ever On and On”
