Auckland, New Zealand
Spain Holiday 2010
Explored a lava cave under Three Kings volcano last night. (Auckland is built around 48 volcanoes and thousands of people live in homes without realising there are a myriad of caves beneath. As a boy I used to explore some of them.) May join Auckland Geology Club soon..
Teaching English to middle-aged Chinese and Koreans in Auckland is great fun and amazingly I get paid to do this! Before that, I did the same thing in Qingdao, China for 3 years - even there they paid me!
