Bali

After hiking and adventuring in New Zealand I flew to Sydney to see all my friends and of course the babies (that aren't so babie-ish any more). It was a really fun week of catching up with friends and hanging out with Taylor and Ripley, who just got new kittens. Can you imagine anything better than babies and kittens? Neither can I.

Whanganui River Trip

An America, a Canadian and a Swed go on a river trip. That's not the beginning of a bad joke, I actually went on Canoe/Kayak trip with my friends Dan Harrison (Canadian) and Johnny(Swedish) on the Whanganui river in New Zealand. It is one of the "Great Walks" even though it is a river journey. And if you haven't already guessed, it's pretty awesome. 

Lake Waikermoana

Here is yet another blog about a hike a did in New Zealand. If you are sick of my hiking stories and beautiful pictures then please stop reading. However if you are not sick of hiking stories read on....

Tongariro Northern Circuit

The Tongariro Northern Circuit was the first Great Walk I did on the North Island and my first glimpse into what the nature on the North Island is like.

The Copeland Track and Hot Pools

On my way back to Queenstown after I finished the Heaphy and Abel Tasman I did a quick over night hike. It is 17.5 kilometers (10.8 miles) up The Welcome-Flat Hut along the Copeland Track which has natural hot pools right next to it. If you are never in New Zealand it is a MUST.

Swimming With Dolphins!!

From Queenstown I hitch hiked up Akaroa (because I left the car with my friend who I own it with so she could sell it) to see my friend Timmy that I did my yoga teacher training with.

The Heaphy and Abel Tasman Track

My time in New Zealand is winding down, finishing up, coming to a close... However you want to say it. And I've decided that I'd like to spend most of the rest of the time I have here hiking.
