Three Way Separation

Our three heroes made it to Kaikoura yesterday, where sea meets snow capped mountains in one big explosion to the eye. It's unreal.

Driving here yesterday, it all kind of hit us at once that coming to this country has been the best decisions of our lives and that ending the adventure so soon is absolutely heart breaking.

But does it really have to end? The answer was a loud 'HELL NAW.'

The three of us are coming back in 2014, all in our own ways.

For the Canadian it may be in the form of Midwifery School or alternative medicine.

For LP, it may be in the form of a working holiday visa or grad school.

For me...Do I apply for the working holiday visa? Do I move here? Do I stay here? Do I completely change my plan? It's been my plan for years, and it's terrifying to think that it could all change.

In regards to this idea that we're coming back here, with one week left, the three heroes are splitting up... Even LP and I.

It's true.
The three heroes with their trusty steed Bruno Timberlake Mars end their journey together in Kaikoura.

The Canadian's staying in Kaikoura for a few more days and going to finish the North Island at her own pace and her own time.

LP is going back to Dunedin. She and I will happily reunite in Auckland on Thursday.

And me? I feel like need to reevaluate my entire future, while also going to Hobbiton.

It's the end of the adventure for the three heroes, but really, it's just the beginning of their friendship.
