Travelling for a month...

Finally, I have some time to sit down to sort through the photos from the past month...

The word "freedom" is often associated with travel, but along with that comes displacement and estrangement. I can't say whether traveling so much and working around the world is an ideal lifestyle. I'm starting to worry that I can't settle down. I can't say whether or not I'm happy, but I know for a fact that I'm glad.

I'm so glad I went back to Auckland this time, though it was brief and abrupt, I got everything I wanted: I found out that there is nothing else there for me.

I wanted to get my heart back, but as my friend said "You can grow a new one."

My dear friends from New Zealand: thank you, good luck, and I miss you all.
