So my last few posts have not reeally been very action filled, and to be honest this one is not going to be either. I have been in DUnedin now for around 3 weeks i think, maybe four, and will be here for another one or two i say. I have done most of the tourist stuff around here, say the Steepest Hill, went to the Catlins and saw the Peninsula wildlife sanctury. I have become pretty settled here and i am not really that bothered by it. As i said to Liam the other day, not everyday can be filled with mountain hikes and bungee jumps. I have actually started paid work here in the internet cafe (the hostel reception is in the internet cafe and the hostel is upstairs) as well as dressing beds and doing laundry in the hostel, meaning i get free accomodation several days a week and make a few bob during the week as well. That has been my plan while waiting for Queenstown, not heamorrhage money cuz i am sure there will be plenty of that in Queenstown, or Expensive-Ville as i like to call it.

The hostel has gotten pretty quiet with it turning to Winter and all and there has not been a good a group as the one we went on the roadtrip but it has ticked along, lots of rented DVDs, occasional drinks and incresing time spent playing computers in the cafe. "You could have done all this at home!" i hear you say, true i suppose but i am not at home and i am doing what i like down here with different people and in a different culture than home, which makes it a different experience and a very enjoyable one at that.
