Today is the first kind of boring day I have since I’m in New Zealand. I need to finish some work, because I don’t know when I’ll have a good internet connection again. I start my workday at a local coffee place where the coffee is delicious, but they only provide internet for half an hour and so I’m soon back at the hostel. I work for most of the day, but also hang out in the backyard with some people from the hostel. I know I’m blessed with a lot of freedom with my work, though it can also be challenging to combine it with vacation sometimes. I don’t complain though, I’m thankful that I can travel so much.

In the evening I decide to go downtown once more and get some dinner somewhere. Though, the place I want to go to is super crowded, so I change my mind and do groceries instead. I think it’s nicer to eat at the hostel with some good company anyway. Just like the first night I was here I make myself some nice Italian dinner.

At the hostel I run into the hostel manager, Miki is his name by the way, and I invite him for dinner. I think that a nice way to thank a good host is to cook a delicious dinner for them. We have a Italian Spaghetti and a nice glass of wine together and have some more good conversations. I thank him again for the hospitality and for the time here. He really takes the effort of making people feel at home here in the hostel in Queenstown. I enjoyed my time at the hostel and am now ready to travel further to more adventures. It was a nice long week in Queenstown.
