Going to be a day of assholes tomorrow, but getting excited. Moved out of my car this morning and back into a backpack. Took me all of an hour to do so and I filled up an entire trash can when I was done. Ok maybe not an entire trash can but you know what I mean. Makes me miss traveling with kaleb because he was definitely the more organized one. Was thinking about all the people I've met in this country and how they are all special and different and taught me different things. Kaleb is this totally amazing man with a lovely intelligence that he keeps secret from most other people. I was lucky enough to be deemed worthy to see it. We had these unexpected and deep conversations a out everything and nothing at all and I don't think we stopped talking for the first few days we were together. It immediately felt like we had been together for ages in a really nice kind of way. There were the ubiquitous friends that you make in the hostel dorms of course, but some especially fun and forgiving ones were in Byron bay. Super warm and welcoming people from literally all over the world. No one was from the same place. Then there were the kiwis, some local and some who lived abroad, but all were quick to include me in their conversations and circles. I love that openness. Then there were the Americans. An immediate connection was there because of the mutual language and culture stuff, but Ryan and of couse kaleb were especially cool. Ah, the Aussies and Germans. Some traveling together and some alone, but whether I met them in Australia or NZ, they were just fabulous. Sebastian and John whom I know I will never see again, I genuinely wish I didn't lose your emails because it would have been great to have some penpals. Ah well I must find something to do with my last day here since its cold and rainy and I have al my gear. I think I might hang with the "occupy Auckland" crowd. I have to get rid of my chair and the rest of my food anyways. Gday > bintang? Taryn
