Wanaka landings...

So i have arrived in Wanaka, where i plan to make my base for the winter season. The mountains that surround Wanaka are amazing and inspiring. As yet i have not been out ot play but i plan to change that this weekend.
I have been on the hunt for a job since arriving, and at the moment have had no luck. I seem to have arrived a few weeks too early but at least i am here ready for it. I have signed up to help out with a voluntary Easter programme for young kids on the area, i am building dens and scavenger hunting tomorrow, horse riding on thursday and more adventures on friday!
I plan to get myself immersed in the community and know that if i do this, the good grace and opportunities will arise from my input. At the moment, cash is running a little short and the van needs some money spent on it but it will not be long before i can be earning again. I am staying at a friends plot of land, living in the van and i am happy. The sun has shined each day i have been here and i have just found out some climbing goes on very, very close. Also i am looking into getting up into the Alps as the hut access is amazing and it puts me within touching distance of Mt. Aspiring too.

All is well, live is good and it feels great to be alive and be here, living in the now...
