Hi friends and family! Hope all is well with each of you. I have been having an amazing time on my tour around the South Island. The best part has definitely been making some really wonderful friends. In the end, the places you go really don't matter unless you're sharing it with some really cool people. Happiness is perfected when shared right? Climbing and crawling through the enormous glacier in Frans Josef was a major highlight. It is absolutely stunning and extends about 11 kilometers! Horse back riding by the beach in Westport was--as you could guess--amazing. This is one of the only riding tours that lets you ride the horses while they swim!
This trip has been pretty jam packed and I am looking forward to sleeping in the same bed for more than one or two nights at a time. But cooking dinner together in the hostels, hanging at the beach, playing cards, celebrating birthdays, and just walking around town have been the most priceless experiences. Today I said goodbye to most of the friends I've been travelling with. Hopefully not goodbye forever....I'm thinking a reunion in .....Italy???
Lots of love to each of you. Thanks for thinking of me. Enjoy the pictures below the map!
