My New Digs

15 Nov

I packed up my travel bag and walked 3 blocks to my new place. I found a 7 bedroom house that had 2 bedrooms available for my friend Tom and I. Tom and I met back at UBC in 2010 when he was doing a year exchange up there and is one of the main reasons I moved down to New Zealand. We got two rooms in the West Wing of the house. There are 8 of us living in the house with 4 guys and 4 girls, should be interesting at the least. I am just a 25 minute walk to work and more importantly a 5 minute walk to many drinking establishments on Cuba Street (for those in Vancouver think Commercial). The kitchen is pretty small and we don’t have much of a yard but it holds up in the Wellington wind so that is more than I can ask for.

Horizontal Lifestyle

26 Aug

For those of you who think this post is about something else, get your mind out of the gutter. We found this cool little hippie town called Olympos on the South coast of Turkey. Came across a little backpackers that cost us 10 euros for a private room, breakfast and dinner included. It was deemed the perfect spot for the next 2 days to recover from the cruise. The hardest thing we did was walk somewhere to lunch and then carried on to the beach. We lived in the horizontal position 85% of the time, quite the rough life style. It was a nice curveball from the rate I have been going at, but could not stay longer than that so we ponied out of there on the next bus to something involving a little more effort.
