Matamata, New Zealand
Tuesday, October 11, 2005
After a couple of days in Auckland, I left to work on a vineyard. Unfortunately once i got there, I realized there will not be much work available for the next says. And so it was, Clare and I left 2 days after I arrived to move to our next farm stay near Matamata. There we worked our ass off, milking twice a day at 6am and 3:30pm and doing diverse other jobs for room and board. I liked the work but felt imprisoned on the farm as i could not venture out and explore the area. Clare left for Auckland after a week. Then came Asami form Japan who wasn't happy and left after 2 days and the two Canadians, Daniel and Remy left after one day. Daryl went car shopping with me but to no avail, so after 2 weeks on the farm, went back to Auckland to try my luck in a car purchase again. Hope it works this time.
