Surf.

So these days I spend surfing and working.

I still struggle to ride waves.

I actually have a group of solid friends now.

Yey.

I bought a new car, a Nissan Bluebird. It has a name- Snoop. And it's a manual.

The Kiwi survival guide:

Lemonade here is Sprite- real lemonade does not exist
They love ginger beer.
Candy is called lollies.
They have gummy babies and Eskimos.
They don't have rags but tea towels and cloths.
They giggle if I say silverware-its cutlery.
They say Ta for thank you.
You ask for your check when eating at a restaurant or else you pay at the counter- they never just bring it over.
Alcohol is not cheap.
The highest alcohol in beer in 5%.
The entrees are their appetizers and our entrees are their main courses.
Cars are not cheap.
It's okay to be homeless- or a traveling bum.
There is no animal or creature that will kill you.
Petrol (gas) price is double.
Kiwis are the cheapest fruit to purchase.
They love beets.
All cookies are hard- they are meant to be dipped in coffee or tea.
They have savory muffins everywhere- spinach and feta= amazing.
They don't really have drip coffee.
They have flat whites- which is espresso with steamed milk.
The sun is super powerful.
They call bathing suits, "togs."
They love pies- especially meat pies (mince and cheese).
Instead of a popcorn button on microwaves they have a meat pie button.
They drive on the left side of the road.
They love reggae, electronic, and drum & bass music.

AND...
They say things like : "Sweet as"
