Traveling In the North Island: Bay of Plenty, Rotorua and Auckland

I am not the type of person who really plan for a trip, I came here without really plan on where to go. So basically, I travel either due to there is work, or to vist a friend of mine, or there is someone else plan and I join in.

I spend 4 months in the north island for the kiwi fruits, staying at the Bay of Plenty. I did not buy a car yet until end of March. So, my life was taking my sweet time watcing Youtubes and get sme chance to learn cooking simple dishes.

It was my new housemate, Huei and Nisha bring me to Mt. Manganui and Papamoa Beach, nd some places around here.

I haven't really visited Auckland but went there 3 times between these month:

1. While waiting for the work to start, I travel to Auckland to meet up with Daniela and stay at her place. She is my ex colleague from Chile. She has been a good host and bring me around.





I stopped by at Rotorua and walk in the city, thought to visit the museum but it was closed due to the earthquake last year.




I thought it shall be a longer holiday so I have booked my trip to Wellington, but I have cancelled the plan after visit Daniela after receive some calls for interview back at Te Puke.

2. Then, after I finished the kiwi berries and wait for kiwi fruits, Debera has come back to her home. I took bus to visit her in Auckland. It was a few days of raining day so I just wet and visit my lovely buddy at her house. Meet her parents, ate the famous pies, and not forget to play Catan at her house. Finally see her with her piano and also drum set.


Lastly, finally the weather got better, she brought me to jogging, There is when you realized your stamina all gone. XD

3. Our flight to Nelson for interview was cancelled, so we end up went for a day trip in Auckland and visited the One Tree Hill.
