I just got off the phone with my friend Kevin Hanson and I am more jacked than ever about our future trip to New Zealand. There has always been a fire lit inside me to get out and really see what this huge world has to offer, but it has been totally accentuated and made a lot stronger this year with the media explosion about the country. I've always wanted to visit the country, but seeing it 3 days out of 7 on the Travel Channel really does keep the spark alive. Also, I just got done watching The Beach and the movie made me realize how much the "backpacker" lifestyle really would suit me...you know, going from beautiful place to beautiful place to learn so much about other cultures, and a lot more about yourself. Wow, I really can't wait.
