Well I had my last day at work on Friday 16 February 2007, so I am now a free (but unemployed) man. But I suppose in two weeks I will be a professional tourist! I am sad to leave my job as I had a wonderful time there and met some great people. However, I need to get away and see the big wide world and nothing was going stop me from doing that. At least I can sleep in on week days now.
Most of my travel preparation is all finished so now all I have to do is pack my bag, say my good byes and get on that plane.
I had a farewell party on Saturday which was good times. Was great to catch up with a lot of people and to those of you who made it along - a big thanks! Two of my friends made the trip up from Wellington which was special.
My next post will be on the eave of my departure. There will be some interesting feelings come that day I am sure. I have a few nerves and trepidations, but they are more than negated by my huge feeling of excitement.
Roll on 3 March...

Welcome
Hi all and welcome to my blog. Not too sure how to work these things but I am sure it can't be that hard. Blogs seem to be all the rage at the moment so I thought I would get on the bandwagon.
This blog will chart my upcoming adventures throughout the world. My goal is to leave no stone unturned, leave behind no regrets, and have a great time. I love NZ but I am really looking forward to getting away. There's a big world out there and I wanna see as much as it as possible.
So as of 3 March 2007 I am flying the coup. The initial plan is to take in South America for three months, travelling through Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, Chile, Argentina, Uruguay and a little bit of Brazil. After that I am going to visit some Yankee friends for a while, and then off to Canada to find me a job. After that, who knows...
I am really looking forward to the travels but I guess at the same time I am a little nervous and apprehensive - should be fine! I will miss my family and friends but you all understand my need to get away, and of course you can always come and visit me!
So tune in over the coming months/years and I'll endeavour to keep you all reasonably well updated as to what's happening. I'm not such a great photographer, but my camera is fairly idiot proof and I will no doubt chuck some pics on this blog too. So sit back, relax and enjoy Andy's Adventures...
