Preparation for the trip

Well the preparation for the trip could have gone better but it's been an experience in itself. Who would have thought that in New Zealand of all developed places you cannot find a power adaptor that is NZ to universal.. They only seem to sell wherever in the world to NZ. So that's a little hick up. (umm maybe I should import some and sell them, I bet ya I might be rich) oh well that's obviously not going to happen now given that all of you know about my secret plan.. Anyway.. Enough of my ranting, on to the apologizing. So I am truly sorry if I didn't get to meet up with the ones of you that I was meant to.. I have been extremely busy with work right up until 4 days before I left and then I was packing and sorting stuff out like accommodation. Alas if you do get time and don't hate me forever you could send me your address and I will try my best to send you a postcard from wherever I am around the world. So if you're ever thinking about going away on holiday for as long as I'm be better prepared than I am. Currently my pack is 22 kgs and it's full of stuff. I'm quite prepared in the emergency medical department given that I have almost everything from an ER. A full first-aid kit kindly donated by a dear friend of mine, which seriously is taken up half my pack but still, you can never be too cautious. Other things that are in my pack. Well more medical related stuff. I have a box of medication like seriously large box of medication which the doctors at uni prescribed me which includes 4 kinds of diarrhea medication, itch cream, malaria tablets, hydration packs, pain killers and much much more. I have a sleeping bag, can opener, and toiletries. The clothes I have is pretty good. They should be what I need. One thing I will mention is that in hind sight I might have sold my dignity for a t-shirt hey but it's a chance for my 15 minutes of fame right. I got a T-shirt from bFM for free in exchange for taking photos of myself around the world with it. Which should be quite cool I rekon given that I went to the university that it's broadcasting from and work for the association that owns them I guess I'm only helping them out. Apart from that the preparation for the trip is just basically looking online for cool stuff to see and do. Actually this might be the right time to open up this call to all the people who read this blog. If you have any suggestions of what I should do around the world email me so I can see if I can do it. And I think I have ranted enough tonight, there will most probably be another post tomorrow before I leave at 6.30pm NZ time. Oh one last thing. I can't believe it I'm going to arrive in Chile before I leave NZ it's crazy I love it.. Now why didn't I go on my birthday???
