This time it’s a bit different, I’m staying at friend’s in Blenheim in the north-est of the South island. Middle-sized town (about 30,000 inhabitants), close from the sea and surounded by low mountains.

After 8 days in Kaikoura, I left doing some hitch-hiking and the 52nd car to pass by me stopped. It was driven by three wwoofers like me . I was lucky because they were going to the very place I was heading to (there’s no other town 200km around on this lonely road anyway).

Before I left, I’ve seen the seal puppies, and since it’s “sooooo cuuuuuute” here are the pictures (click to enlarge) :

 

I work in the morning at the vineyard and in the afternoon on a small building site, with Donald (I forbid you to laugh). I’m probably gonna stay a bit longer in this town since there’s some work for me.

Only disavantage here : the whole family speaks french. But it’s a relief for my brain.
