 05/01/24 The North Island Last days in Hamilton I am once again writing from the Auckland airport. After an incredible holiday season with my wwoofing family, I am very excited to move on to my next place: Makarora. For the next week, I will be working with Aspiring Biodiversity and Birds NZ to deliver an awesome birding camp for ages 14-18. This was the age range that I really discovered birds, so I am so excited to hopefully help some other youths discover the wonders of the bird world. And, I'll finally get to spend some time in Queenstown and Wanaka :) I have grown to love the North Island and the people in it. It has been so interesting to learn from New Zealanders and actually be immersed in its rich culture. I got so so lucky finding Nina as she really encouraged me to explore and experience what the North Island had to offer. I'll start with the Waitomo Glowworms.   I wish wish wish I could have photos of the glowworms to share, but it was too dark for anything to show
