Packing up and heading out to explore

Today was my last day of work. It was a good end to 8 weeks working with the Advanced Energy and Material Systems Lab at the University of Canterbury. A great experience that I am thankful for!

Tomorrow is my last day in Christchurch for a while. "I'm going on holiday." I'm heading to the top of the South Island on Sunday to hike the Heaphy Track, which ends near Karamea on the West Coast. From there, I'll be traveling down the remote West Coast, exploring and hiking, finally ending in Wanaka to visit with friends and savor one of the most beautiful places on earth. I'm excited! And with the current weather forecast, there will almost surely be some good tales. Be patient. They will come.

If you like maps, here's a link to a map of my journey. Note that the section from "C" to "D" is wrong. We'll be walking the Heaphy Track through Kahurangi National Park.
