Just chillin

I've been in Queenstown a little over 2 weeks.
Life is good.
It's so beautiful here.
There's been a few days when the mountains had snowy tops.
I've been looking for a J.O.B. but in the meantime I've been doing temp work and hanging around town.
Bad photo. But I'm enjoying a monster beer at Cowboys. I even tried to ride the mechanical bull. I didn't do well....
No skills and apparently no dignity. Hahaha.

I live in a cute little hostel called Bumbles, which is full of fun and friendly backpackers. I work at the hostel to pay for my bed. One less expense while I search for work.
This is hanging up in my dorm.  It's like they knew I was coming...

The temp work I've been doing has been a little housekeeping (lame) and working big functions at the Skyline restaurant. Which is definitely my preferred temp job. We get to feast on the gourmet dinners they serve. One night I had four desserts. Pork alert!
Plus, I love the commute.

The Bungy platform
On my way to work. There's someone Bungying in the bottom right corner.

"Would you car for another drink, sir?"

I've had a few interviews but no jobs. I have my fingers crossed that I might get hired at Outdoor World, the REI of NZ.
A covert lakeside band. They set up a hundred candles and played great tunes till the cops shut it down. Bad photo tho...

In the meantime, I've been enjoying the gorgeous views and bumping night life of this little resort town.

I've been pretty busy, with temp work and working at the hostel. I actually haven't had a full day off in 2 weeks. So I hope to get out and about and do some hiking on my days off this week.
