Well, here I am in Hastings. I was worried that traveling through backpackers was going to be just as lonely as wwoofing in Otaki with Ron. However, I was wrong!
The two German girls who were my roommates for 1 night just weren't that friendly. They talked to me when I asked them questions, but overall kept to themselves. When I came back from my long day out yesterday I found Jacob and Iris cooking away in the kitchen. They are from Hong Kong. Iris has been here over a year now, and Jacob about 4 months. They are amazing. We had dinner together, and after watched the show, Grey's Anatomy together, and also with two OTHER girls from Germany. Everyone is very nice, kind, and wants to make friends. This morning I had breakfast with a guy from Canada. Things are looking so much better.
Jacob and I have been called upon for work. We are under contract for 1 month. I know it is a long time, but they are all so nice and interesting. Other people will come and go in the next month. The hostel is safe, cozy, and as I have explored Hastings it is a very nice town. We all are just traveling and want to meet people :)
I will post pictures of my room soon
what kind of work did you get?
