Looking Forward

So Ill be in New Zealand in less than two months! how exciting!  Until then I'll packing and preparing.  I've been reading up on the country, its history, geology, and cultural relevance in the polynesian community. 

This weekend I had the pleasure of meeting with Scott Dowd of the New England Aquarium.  His passion lies in the conservation of amazonian rain forest to save one small fish that fuels the economy of a region.  He introduced me to Dr. Les Kaufman who works with a global conservation group to try and save the oceans.  Their dedication to conservation inspired me.  It makes me so happy that not only will my trip be and adventure it will be fulfilling in every way.

until next time..

t-65 days Until New Zealand

Several thousand dollars later and I am officially confirmed to be in New Zealand the Month of January 2010. I'll be volunteering on a conservation project and taking the adventure of a lifetime. I have wanted to visit New Zealand since I was a child, but seeing the Lord of the Rings films solidified it for me. Ill be travelng from Boston to Reno to go home for x-mas, then Reno to LA, and LA to New Zealand. Ill be blogging along the way so my readers can follow up on my adventures.
Until next time...
