Erika's life

Hello! I'm a little bit busy because I had been to New Zealand and after coming back to Japan, I have to work everyday... Now, I want to write about New Zealand trip.
From last month, I went to New Zealand for two weeks. This is the first time for me to leave Japan so I was a little bit nervous. But I could arrive at New Zealand safely. Yes, it was sooo fun! Actually, I went to a language scool in Auckland and stayed in host family's house but mostly, I went sightseeing. My host family consists of host mom and her son. My host mom is really really kind and I could spend a good time with her. Besides, her cook was very good! I was surprised that she served Chinese fried rice for us. Her son is handsome and always goes to pubs at night so I couldn't talk with him very much. I wanted to talk with him much more... In the house, there are also two students from Switzer land and Japan. The Japanese girl and I came to the house in the same day and went back to Japan in the same day! I could get along with her. Also, I could talk about many things with the Swiss girl.
When I came to New Zealand, I was surprised at few things. First, I was surprised that there were a lot of Chinese, Korean and Japanese restaurants in Auckland. Besides, there are many Chinese and I saw many Chinese are working at cheap restaurants. In Asian restaurants, we can eat delicious Korean and Chinese food cheaply. I don't know wheter Japanese food is good or not because I was afraid to eat Japanese food in there. Secondly, I was surprised that bus drivers were very fierce and I was scary to ride the buses... Be careful to ride buses in NZ!

Anway, I went to many palces, Auckland zoo, sea museum, Hobbiton town, Devon port, sky tower and so on. In Aucland zoo, I could see the rare animal, kiwi! Um... kiwi is a nocturnal animal so I couldn't see clearly... Besides, it was smaller than I expected. But it's very cute! In Hobbiton town, there are not remained the sets of "Load of the Ring" so only I could see the Hobitoon houses. But the nature is very beautiful and there are many sheep. We can relax in there. As for Devon port, this place is the best for me because I could see the really really beautiful landscape from the mountain. I recommend you to go there.
My feeling about New Zealand is that people are kind and nature is very beautiful. I want to visit there again!
