Less than 15 hours before we see the end of the year here in NZ. I hope for those that have enjoyed their time here(and still enjoying), may 2017 give even more wonderment and opportunities of growth as you head off on your next adventure.
I'll hopefully be more active and informative of events and activities, which will include the 9th annual CS Tongariro alpine crossing in late January and other fun stuff for everyone to enjoy. Happy end of 2016 and hopefully see you all next year!
