I'm here! It took about 36 hours to get from the Reno Tahoe Airport to my hostel in Auckland. The traveling experience was uneventful. I slept a lot and watched a bunch of random TV/movies (international travel has improved a lot since I went to Italy). Met a couple Aussie guys that were super helpful. All the things that seem to be a terrible when traveling were non-issues. My big ass backpack was the third off the carousel (it has a Sunnie on it so it was super easy to spot :)) and customs was easy peasy.
Took a shuttle from the airport to my hostel. The windows were blacked out so I still haven't seen a lot of the classic NZ scenery. My hostel is really nice. I have 2 free nights but I will probably stay for about a week. There are 4 other people in my room. To avoid jet lag I knew I needed to stay up as late as possible so I walked around Auckland with an Italian guy named Nico and a Czech girl named Iva. Auckland is beautiful and busy, it smells and feels like San Francisco. Here are a few pics and my interesting attempt at vlogging!
Love it... so excited to keep following the journey!
