Well actually I've been home for like 3 weeks now. Just REally haven't wanted to sit down and write this. This is a sorta recap of the last 7 months. Well a blurry recap. So it started by smashing my guitar on my first flight. That ledto my new beater guitar that is basically my souvineer for the trip. Signed by all the lovely people I've met on this trip. Totally I could have kept travelling but man miss my friends. LOL. And a decent p[aycheck. So to everyone from Europe CHEERS. I mean there is no better way to go out and meet people than jump trains around europe in the summer. So many memories. The top spots were definetly Krakow, Greece, Barcellona, Amsterdam, adn of course Ibiza. The Pink Palace is mandatory for everyone under 30 then its just creepy. I met some of the coolest people ever there. Marsh, Paul, NZ, Scotty, Che, Aaron, Ren, Nic. For scenery definetly Switzerland!!! Don;t get me wrong all of Europe is breathtaking but those are my favs. Then it was off to Ireland. I fit in way to well. Cork is definitely my fav town. although I hear I missing a shitload in Galaway just another reason to go back. If ever in Cork stay at the bru hostel. The best ever. Once the pubs shut down it keeps going til like 4am. If the cops don;t show up. Staying on the Farm with MArc and Way to cool. Surfing and amazing country side. Plus wicked organic veges. Tehn the lovely Marsh was able to put me up for a bit in Beckenham. Talk about gong show. Nothing like following up a cider night with an english breakfest. London was sweet but way to fukin expensive. Teh 26 hour flight to NZ was way to long. Jet Lag is a bitch. New Zealand was the most diverse country side ever. I mean wicked beaches everywhere in north adn south. Mountains everywhere. Volcanic islands and hot springs. Huge mountain ranges and glaciers in the south. Then there was ROngo's backpackers hostel. Paul Murray is the coolest cat in the world. I have to go back to that place. KAramea was my favorite place in NZ. Probably cuz i was sik of big cities from europe. I mean population 400. if that. And such a sweet community there. Henry, Andy and Moa U guys are solid. Couldn;t have had better people to hang with. Then off to Australia. Brisbane, Byron Bay, Nimbin are all sweet but the real fun happened in Cairns. Reef Encouter hostie program is all u have to remember. I mean free food, bed, and 3 dives a day, all just for being a dish pig. Love it. And being out on the reef was amazing. Met some super cool people on hte boat. Then down to MAnly, Sydney to visit Steve. Now what a fuking good time. We went out hard. A little scuffle the one night but good times for sure. Steve I owe u one bud Come to Canada. Then Comes Costa Rica. Now San Jose is a pretty shitty city. But tranquillo's backpackers makes it standable. I mean 2 wicked acoustic guitars hanging for teh guests. Love it. And a batcave downdatairs for all the partiers. Staying at Hawkins place AKA barking horse farm was unreal. Doran and Naama were amazing irsraely people. Learned some stellar recipes. The Family, Steven, Elizebeth, Sammy and Olivia, were just great. Actually felt like part of the family. I mean staying in Sammy's room was too cool. great location for the farm with rivers and mountains. Horse riding was greatr. But the kids definitely made it for me. Then I mangled my ankle and they were nice enough to put me up til I could move around a bit. THanks a ton guys. So skip nicaragua, honduras, guatemala, and straight to Belize. As soon as i got there my parents had me walking around. If it wasnt for all the beer I might have actually felt somethign. I mean fishing, sailing, sun, drinks, and good times. It was a great time spent with the rentals for the rest of the trip. Being able to catch my dinner ever night was too cool. Then the end came around. Flew home to a nice cold winter that hadn;t really started. Now I'm balls deep in snow. So back to reality. Been looking for work now 2 weeks. Tons of offers but jsut nothing perfect. I want the perfect job LOL. So everyone who wants more details just throw me an email. Enjoy everyone.
Alright refresh I got a job and am moving to Bolton (Near Toronto)!!
So til next trip, which seems to be Cali at the end of April
