I am so glad to be back in Singapore. The tropical weather and tasty food just makes me miss it so much. The trip to New Zealand for a week was great, but sometimes there were frustrating moments with my brother around.
I went to New Zealand together with my family and we toured the South Islands in a tour group. The first day was quite boring because nobody talked to me besides my family members, but it soon got better when I started making new friends. Most of the time in New Zealand was spent on traveling or else free and easy, which my family would usually go shopping.
The hotels we stayed in were all not bad, but the breakfast served was the same everyday. I was alright with the breakfast even though it was the same everyday. The tour guide brought us to various places to see mountains and old buildings which we cannot see in Singapore. It was all very interesting and I took a lot of photos there.
From this trip, I learnt a lot of new things and also experienced life in New Zealand for about a week. The life there is not as fast-paced as Singapore and there is totally no stress at all being there. I hope to go back there again one day, as the chocolates and ice cream is so abundant there.
