I have dream of taking the plane to the every corners of the world since I was a child. Travelling always a passion of mine, it becomes part of my life. I was so excited when I got to know about the working holiday visa of New Zealand, I knew I'm going to make part of my dreams come true.
Travel by my own is a challenge as I never do this for the past, especially to a western country. It was an immense thing that has ever happened to me. It’s different than any other travelling experience I had in the past, backpacking gave me a whole new viewpoint on travel. There were no any plan and arrangement make in advance, except the first day I arrived. I didn't know what will I do and where I would be tomorrow. It's a thrilling experience I ever have especially for the beginning.
Living in New Zealand is a culture shock to me. The simple stress-less lifestyle, open work attitude, the friendliness from stranger....were all different to what I accustomed to back home.
I met different people from all walk of life, did things that I never thought I will do. My love for travelling blossomed.
I'm a lot more independent and I've learnt a lot of valuable lessons along the way, most important, I made a lot of new friends.
I'm always believe that everyone should experience a different way of life to fully apreciate what life is about.
So glad to see you, your words and your high spirit in making your dreams come true.
