new plans

Sunday, May 24th, 2009

OK, so my current plan – which has changed- is I’m leaving CHCH tov head out to London next week, heading up to Auckland for the night, then to Brunei for a 24hour stopover then over to London where I have 2 weeks before starting my marquee job on the 14th on June.

 So I am going to spend 2 weeks cruising round visiting people in the UK and am heading up to Glasgow after I arrive which should be great! I haven’t really been anywhere north of London so be nice to see a bit more of the country. Still a bit undecided on plans after summer. At this stage am looking at come back to NZ in September to do another Eastercamp as this years was so much fun! So likely this will just be a short trip and will start my masters next year…then I guess get a real job or something…this trip isn’t really going to be a travelling trip but a few idea’s for next year on the way back to Europe, I really want to go to Iran after being in the Middle East last year and am working on sometime to come with me. 

 On the right hand menu’s I have started a new section for this up and coming trip “Europe Summer 09” so stayed new for some new crazy adventures involving big marquee’s

trip expenses

I finally filled out my expense spreadsheet. I kept a pretty good record of what I was spending while away. It’s not totally exact but a general idea of where my money went over the 5 and half months. It average out at $60 a day which I think is pretty good….so if you want to know how much it costs to travel the world…well, here’s an example. It’s all in NZD which can be a bit skewed as our dollar is fluctuating a bit over the last year.
