Weekly update

Oh look at me, posting weekly.
Seems like Fridays have been a good day for some posting, as it is my Sunday. The last few weeks been having lazy Sundays as the weather's still a bit cold to be outside the whole day. I do have plans to do some hikes in the next couple of weeks as soon as it gets a tiny bit warmer. Usually on Thursdays I go to town to do grocery shopping and whatever else I need to buy as there's no supermarket around here where I live. So Queenstown's the closest place for that and it takes about an hour to drive one way. It's kinda funny to think I have to drive an hour to get to a supermarket. Yes, I do live in the middle of nowhere ha.

Below you can see the view I have when driving back home. Lovelovelove.

Not much has happened this week, just been working and hanging out with my work mates. At the moment there's 5 of us living at the house here; French-Austrian couple, two English girls and me. And a few casual workers living in other areas but most of the time hanging out here at the house as well.

On Mondays we have a game night where we play whatever board or card games we feel like and maybe have a few drinks. It's a bit weird day for that, a Monday, but that's when three of us are off and the other people don't have an early start the next day. Lately we've been really into the Monopoly cards game - it's the best ha. 

This Monday was a bit different though - we did play some games but also had a huge bonfire at the beach. Andreas, the Austrian, has his birthday on Saturday and as there's an English couple leaving on Saturday, we decided to celebrate Andy's birthday that day.  It's really nice we're keeping our Monday games night and do all this fun stuff together.

On Tuesday I finished quite early so went for a walk just a bit up the road. There are a few fords (small streams/rivers) going across the road where I went for the walk so couldn't go that far away though.

And as I was walking back, saw Ziggy, Andy and Rob walking down and joined them for an evening kayak. We went to a nearby beach (only takes about 15-20mins to kayak) and had a small fire there. Such a nice ending for the day.

See ya next week. Hopefully.
