Screw the snow, palm trees and the sun is where its at.
Sweet As ........ After a year and a half of cruising around the world, eating really badly, sleeping very little, and generally neglecting all things healthy it was back to Auckland to catch up with my Fam and get pampered with some seriously tasty food and all things good. So first up, a big Thanks goes out to my olds for spoiling me so much and helping my broke ass out ......... You guys are awesome. Which meant that my time in the most beautiful country in the world was always going to be awesome.
OK, so this blog is of Auckland where I didnt actually spend much time but where I grew up and is a good time to introduce my family to all the mates Ive made on the other side of the world.
First up it was my little sisters 21st Bday party which was awesome, followed by a number of Chrissy parties and gatherings, anyways, will let the blog do the talking, this one may be a little boring but I have two epic blogs of the North and South Island to follow so dont worry. Laters
