Wellington - The Windy City

Hey *,

3.5 weeks gone in no time ... for this trip it's my last day in New Zealand, I'll fly back to Melbourne tomorrow early morning.

I stayed here in Wellington once more in a really nice backpacker (World Wide Backpackers) - very amazing how good it was, especially as those backpackers in bigger cities are more often not as good as those around the countryside. Also here, nice rooms, good beds, free internet, free local calls, ...

Did a lot of walking
  • through the city
  • along the harbor side
  • through the botanical gardens (although I took the cable car up and down again)
  • through Te Papa (Maori for "My Place"), the National Museum of New Zealand (free entry!)
  • through the Beehive (the NZ parliament where I did a guided tour (also for free))
As you can imagine I loved my stay in New Zealand - the perfect holiday! Looking forward to coming back soon again (hope this time it won't take nearly 5 years to return ;) I definitely feel re-vitalized and come back with a lot of energy for term 2 starting in 2 weeks, beginning of February ... but before I"ll have another week of vacation in Tasmania ... :))

Keep you updated.
B.
