Present

Present “That part of eternity dividing the domain of disappointment from the realm of hope.” Although It’s easy to search for the literal meaning of the present, the now, a gift, this point in time, it’s a lot more difficult to live by its principles. Then what could be those principles be you might ask? I’ll go ahead and try to explain them through my perspective.

Milford Sound

Life in Milford Sound Milford sound, or in Maori Piopiotahi, is located on the west side of the south island in New Zealand. There is only one road in which loops around from Queenstown to Te Anau to Milford, in which I’m trying to say it’s very isolated. I would say that Milford is a special place.

I am afraid to be the only one… The only one that isn’t in a relationship, or is in one. The only one to understand something, or not understand at all. The only one to like someone, or dislike them. It’s safe to say the list goes on. However after acknowledging all those fears you’d think I’d be anxious and incapacitated but I’m not. What makes the difference? I believe what makes it different […]

Welcome to my story

Welcome to my story I’ll use this page as a way to express what I see, feel and yes also struggle with. The ups and downs and the special situations. Long stories, short stories, pictures and thoughts. I’ve been meaning to start this blog to share my travels and experiences with the outside world, it has been 2 ½ years and some countries later and finally I have a blog space I can work with! Better late than never right!? With this blog I’ll continue with the travels to come, rather than dwell and backtrack of what has already passed. […]
