Weekly Recap

Week from 12.08.-18.08.

From Monday to Thursday, I was on a team trip to Hamilton with the other volunteers and a few people from El Rancho. A 6-hour drive on Monday there and back on Thursday. We spent the time in the car doing karaoke and sleeping. Once there, we visited Hobbiton, the famous film set of 'The Lord of the Rings', solved escape rooms, and checked out sights like the Hamilton Gardens and the Huka Falls. On Wednesday morning, we all got up very early to take a sunrise hike. 1400 steps, almost an hour of climbing, and it was well worth it! On the way up, I even saw glowworms. The view was incredible. The rest of the trip was filled with team competitions like cook-offs and quiz nights.

On Friday, Saturday, and Sunday we had free time. So relaxing! On Friday we explored Waikanae, and on Saturday, we spent the day in Wellington, visited the museum, and then met up with others in the evening to experience the city at night and dance a bit. So Sunday was a very relaxed day where everyone did their own thing. All in all, it was a very eventful, entertaining, and yet relaxing week!
