Auckland

Day 1: Fly to Auckland, Arrive at Hostel, Meet the group

Flew Into Auckland, NZ via BOS -> DFW -> AKL. Didn't sleep the entire trip. Met up with Jade and Paige at the airport before being shuttled to the YMCA Hostel, where I met Jason and Max for the first time. A group of people on the trip were already out exploring the city, so Jade, Paige, and I went on our own little walk down by the Harbor. The next few hours waiting for the rest of the group were filled with just getting to know each other and poking fun at each others language differences, accents and cultures. Eventually we were joined by Ethan, Amy, Sophie, Elena, Grace, and Nia for drinks before our welcome dinner!
