The End

So, this is the end...We've travelled across the world, slept in over a hundred different beds (not together) and experienced awesomeness such as:

Partying in Bangkok; Ping-Pong shows; Full Moon party; diving in Koh Tao; trekking, Elephant riding, star gazing and Tiger cuddling in Chiang Mai; slow boat to Laos; tubing; riding the worst mopeds known to man; tubing again; 27 hour bus journey from hell to Hanoi; Halong Bay; attempting to cross roads in Vietnam; crawling the Viet Cong Cu-Chi tunnels; shooting a rifle; Angkor Wat; Hiring a camper-van called Helen; damaging Helen; Frasier island; great barrier reef; attempting to order a drive-thru McDonald's in an imaginary car; Betty the ball; surfing; Nimbin; Magnetic Island; Helen being broken into; Cape Tribulation; Campbell Town; Sand-dune boarding; Meeting Arj Barker; Jumping off the Sky-Tower; White Water-rafting; losing my shin on the luge; Alpine crossing; meeting glow-worms; Wellington pub-crawl; sitting inside a replica Whale-Heart;  kayaking in Abel Tasman; pouring pints in Greymouth; Spending all my money; Borrowing money; Sky-diving, kayaking and Glacier walking in Franz Josef; Borrowing more money; My Birthday, and getting freaked out in Puzzlingworld in Wanaka; Highest Bungee in NZ, Frisbee golf, Fergburger in Queenstown; star-gazing at Lake Takepo; and swimming with Dolphins in Kaikoura.

My bucket-list has taken a pounding.

It wouldn't have been as amazing if I hadn't met so many awesome people, so below Ive attempted a list of credits. Obviously, it would be impossible to name everyone, but here is my best shot:

Massive thanks to everyone named above, and others who I may have missed out by accident.

A special thank you to my parents for helping me out big-time which has allowed me to do everything Ive wanted.
