Moving to a new flat with cool peeps. Would like to spend this year getting to know new friends, having fun... but also saving as I'd like to go to Thailand, South Africa, England and Europe in 2005.

Looking forward to new challenges!

Whats with everyone I talk to wanting to go to Thailand?! I'm all up for it cause people who've been tell me yopu can live off about $15NZ a day for everything. Sounds perfect to me! My Aussie mate said a day of elephant treacking, 4x4 driving and two meals cost her like $40NZ

I'm so going there!!

Try and get to cambodia and laos to if you get the chance, much better impression of asian culture than thailand.....plus there even cheaper and their not quit so over the tourists..!! Cambodia is a littel bit more dnagerous though..!!

Hmmm, my best friends are arriving in a month so thats when my travels will begin! Ireland in March and April are planned so far and then the rest of Europe this year. Cant afford to take too much time off work so lots of short holidays will have to be the go. May possibly come back to NZ for a couple of weeks later in the year. Just gonna save hard and do heaps of travel is the main point of the year. I'm just gonna take it as it comes.

Settling into new job, saving some cash, enjoying friends company when they come visit, helping a mate settle into life in sydney late march, possibly moving closer to town, having a holiday back home at some stage, check out melbourne, and Indy in Nov on the gold coast - boys weekend away! Very Happy


Also on the agenda - saving cash to invest later, get back in shape, and meet more people and do more new things!
