Road trip, New Zealand and Kawai Pura Pura

Sooo, sailing and spearfishing didn't happen. I hooked up with David, my german friend from Krambach, AUS, that left the farm some weeks before. He picked me up and we went for an awesome camping/roadtrip from Newcastle, all the way to Melbourne via Camberra. We intended to go to Tasmania, but for practical VISA/Air fare reasons we split. I spent a few days on the couch of my good friend Alexandra in Melbourne before randomly flying to Auckland, New Zealand where i checked in as a voulenteer at a yoga retreat called Kawai Pura Pura. One of the better decition so far. I have spent about 7 weeks in this place and it was absolutely amazing. A community of about 30 + travellers, living in dorms, caravans and small huts at the most well maintained garden area in the north end of Auckland, Albany. For three hours of toilet cleaning pr day i had my acommodation, free yoga classes and the company of one of the most alive, funny and woke crowd ive hung out with. I was living in this little bubble most of the time, exept for a small excursion with my german friend, Felix, and in the end a longer road trip with the most awesome Noa from Argentina and Andrea from France. I could write details for years, but ill rather tell the stories than write them.
Now i have left NZ for Peru. Im in Lima now and im headed for Iquitos to attend a god damn Aya Huaska retreat. They say its a life changing experience, so lets see how changed my life will become 
