Ah, the time has come to leave New Zealand tonight! After being here just shy of two months, it feels both good and bad to be leaving..

The aspects I liked about New Zealand were:

- Undoubtedly, the views & scenery
- Cafe/coffee culture in the cities, especially Dunedin's - best coffee you can get
- Escapeism - How, within a few hours drive, you can go from a busy city to snowy mountain bliss
- Ease of travel
- The adrenaline-fuelled activities
- The outstanding tourism organisation system

The things I didn't like were:

- The weather, at most times
- Intercity coach drivers
- How North island resembled England a little too much
- And of course.. bed bugs!

I'm really excited and curious to be heading for Oz, however, I do find it a little daunting due to the sheer size of the country. Let the next adventure roll on.. :)
