Good Times At Balcony Bar


The Balcony bar at my hostel is up and running. Its on 6th floor right on the center of Auckland. They have BBQ thats becoming daily when the weathers get better, it was first time on friday, you could buy burger, saugage and salad for $6 (=3€) and beer for $5 (=2,5€), so it was a good deal. It seems something like a "family" has formed from people that have stayed around in the hostel for longer.

He's Andy the manager of Balcony Bar. He's from Newcastle so he has a funny accent, he's also a big fan of Newcastle United. U know how Brits love their football.

Fortunate


The movie I just watched got me thinking how fortunate I am to be able to travel, live with no stress, do whatever and go wherever I want. Sometimes we take for granted what we've got. I'm thankful the support I've got from my family and friends and most of all that I've stayed healthy and everythings been good, lets hope it stays that way.

Live Your Life


While I've been here I've learned you can do whatever with your life but with great freedom comes responsibility also. I'm learning new things about life everyday, maybe not anything really amazing but stuff that I wouldn't had probably noticed or experienced in Finland. Traveling teaches so much about life.

Mad cookin'


I cooked some pasta carbonara today with Ross, Chris and Darran. It was great. I think I'll be in Auckland for a while, it looks like it. I have an interview for a job tomorrow, lets see how it goes.

Come on Summer


Summer is arriving in New Zealand. The sun is getting hotter (todays really shitty weather) and always when I'm in the sun I have this wierd feeling, because the sun here is very dangerous.

Multilingual


The variety of languages and cultures that are is this hostel and this city amazes me. Theres a girl talking Japanese or Chinese on skype next to me, on the other side two French guys talking French. I also tasted real Italian parmesan cheese today when we were talking to this Italian guy and heard the longest word of a place there is from a Welsh guy.

Nice ass Boat


The sickest boat ever. It can speed up to 50 knots (around 90 kmh). It holds a record being the fastest boat circumnavigating the globe. These guys are leaving to Antarctica to chase whale hunters.

Mumbai


One sunday there was an Indian market in the viaduct harbour. So much Indian people, I almost thought I was in India. There was music shows, Indian food, fortune tellers etc.

Kebab Madness

British Dudes

British guys are almost impossible to beat at pool. I've made a goal for me to beat one british guy at pool before I leave New Zealand. :D. I've been also looking for a job a lot. I have one interview today, so lets hope everything goes well. I really look forward to start working here and have somewhat more clue about what to do. Now I'm just trying to figure out. Gotta get the job first so then I can decide where to live etc.
