The wait is nearly over. I leave for NZ tomorrow afternoon. It hasn't truly hit me yet that I will be in such a distant place so soon but it will hit me soon enough. As you can imagine, I greatly look forward to my journey overseas and eagerly await the adventures to come.
Pretty much all of my trip is unplanned. I have a list of places i want to see, mountains i want to climb and hikes that i want to go on. But as for a schedule or obligations of any kind; there are none.
I will be living out of my backpack. Everything I need will be in it. I enjoyed the task of simplifying everything i own into the bare essentials. I have a small stove and will be living in a hammock.
When I am not on the trail, I will be staying with NZ families. There is a great deal of organic farming in New Zealand and I will be working 4 to 5 hours a day in exchange for room and board. It is in this way I will travel the two islands of some of the most beautiful countryside on planet earth.
