原本是不想分享我的故事。第一害羞，我的故事不精彩，文采很不好。第二懒惰，太多东东西西忘光了，没写日志的下场，都是靠照片与户口里的消费额回想。 第三不想想起那里的点点滴滴，太煎熬了。回来马来西亚已经一个月了，无时无刻都在挂念那里的人事物，总觉得有些事还没做完。忘不了就尽情的回想吧！重新地在脑袋里再流浪过过瘾！
Before leaving Malaysia, I was working in a advertising company. Told my boss I'm leaving 3 days later. Reason to leave: going to backpack in New Zealand. My boss and colleagues aspect me might not be able to 'survive' more than 3 weeks over there. I don't give a shit what's people thought about me, what ever.
Had not much experiences on backpacking, just went to Bangkok & Singapore before. Read fews books, browsing lots of blogs. Most of the important information get it from Lonely Planet. Bought a chinese version Lonely Planet from Taiwan $500NTW, cause it is cheaper than the English version around RM70+ to RM100+, as everyone known, chinese book from China & Taiwan is much more cheaper although it the original copy. Kindna suggest traveler must have it, if going to travel to those countries where are not easily get internet access.
Language: My English is kindna poor. Watch a lot of American series to improve my listening. GOSSIP GIRL, THE VAMPIRE DIARIES, DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES, LIE TO ME,HEROES....... Of cause it's work!
Going to nz on April, the Exchanging Rates is very not worth in those bank. I suggest people should go for the exchange money agents. Because I will not bring a large amount NZD cash with me, so I had to change the money in Bank ($1NZD = RM2.378) SO EXPENSIVE!!! I suggest before exchange large amount of foreign money, please refer to in BANK NEGARA MALAYSIA.
Luggage was 28kg, including clothes, pants, medicines, skin care products, lots of instant noodles, hp laptop, dslr camera, lomo camera, souvenirs for travelers.... 1 huge luggage bag, 1 backpack, and 1 handbag. Overweight: 18kg. Extra charge: RM180.

Saw a blog written by a Taiwanese guy, have the resonance with him with the last 2 sentences.
今晚要在奧克蘭的機場待一晚，回味一下當初出來旅行的時候，在機場流浪的感覺！之後還要到新加坡及馬來西亞流浪，但是其實我現在還蠻想回台灣啦！住在Hostel的背包客有很多人是剛到這裡的，她們總是問我你會覺得有點捨不得嗎？我只能說對於這個國家不會，但是對於我在這裡遇到的人，就真的很捨不得啦！因為她們或許是你一輩子都不會再遇到的人了！Fom 紐西蘭打工旅遊行
