Halftime - strike the balance ;-)


my sweet little office

What should I tell you? … It’s just incredible how the days, the weeks, the months are passing by like nothing and I can’t stop them and now it’s almost halftime of my New Zealand Trip. Damn
Last Week I realized the Winter strokes New Zealand … it was last week - Monday it was The NIGHT of snow, Die NACHT des Schnees, La NOCHE de Nieve or for all French guys La Nuite de Blanche – just in 5 hours 40 centimeter of pure white stuff – !!!Sweet!!!
But there was one small little problem I didn’t know that NZ can not handle snow – and the result was that I was trapped in my house for 1 day cause all roads were closed, three days in my house without electricity and three days without work – unbelievable and all this because of only 40 centimeter of pure white powder – YEAH NZ need some help there ;-))))

Uff what else – mmmmh everybody looked on my photos so everybody knows that I traveled a lot on the south island. New Zealand is not the worst country for traveling ;-) hahaha – but like every where else NZ has as well really ugly places - and I live in such an area – damn … but this doesn’t matter NZ is a dream and I have only 25 km to Mt Hutt. Yeah the Ski season started already … uuuuh sorry that’s not true because “Mt Shutt” (that’s the name for this mountain of the local Kiwis) was closed the whole weekend because of heavy wind and snowfall) – I hope its getting better in the next days – jejejeje

Surfing – I miss Spain – I miss my apartment with ocean view in Gijon – I miss all Cabrones y Cabronas de Gijon ;-) – I miss the beach – I miss the waves in Salinas, Gijon …
I searched the last few weeks for nice waves but that’s impossible. The East Coast is something for long boarder and the West Coast is something for the tough guys the average swell height is 3 – 5 meters just incredible and additional the beaches are really steep so there is a lot of current – everybody tells u don’t try surfing on the west coast without a local. I know u guys…some of you wanna tell me now “there is good surf in NZ” - that’s right but it’s the north island!!!!!!! FUCK - I miss Surfing its incredible it’s now hardly 3 month without surfing - after 9 month almost every day surfing… I know some of you don’t understand me but it’s a part of my life.

My Work – where should I start jejejejee – mmmh after the bad start the work is getting more exciting and its now more or less fun – jejeje – But there are still things which are unbelievable. Here is an example – I work for a Snowboard and Ski Tour operator and there is no one who can ski or ride a Board - Can you now imagine how the people are and how hard is it to discuss about the marketing and other things when nobody shares your passion for this sport? And I reached now a level that everybody tells me “hey your idea is great lets do it” and bla bla bla … there is no one who criticize me or is telling me “No lets do it in this way or that way” – sometimes it would be great to have someone who shares the passion of this sport to get some more ideas and a other point of view.
But still there are some good things – and I am proud that my project is going to be online the next week – yeah I designed the last two month a new Webpage and all the stuff on this Webpage inclusive the design is all out of my strange brain. Jejeeje
But still it was a fight with these so called “web designer” – if you read the next week German Guy shot a 19 and 21 year old web designer because of the working attitude – than its me hahaha – it sometimes incredible how people waste their talent because of … I don’t know because of what … its only the unprofessional working attitude and stuff like this – but its not a problem of these two guys it’s a nation wide problem in NZ – and the result is that I am something like a desperate Housewife – uups Office boy – jejejee

But still it’s a lot of fun and I am looking forward to do the crazy stuff which I get from this company - yeah and that’s includes heli skiing, bungee jumping and my season ski pass for nearly all ski areas in NZ – I hope I got 3 incredible month left.
Wish you all an awesome and hot summer (I miss the sun) and “let’s go Germany let’s go” for the world cup jejejeeje - still I hope Dirk Nowitzki get the “Ring”
Muchas Besos para las chicas and un gran beso para los chicos ;-)
I am looking forward to seeing you all again in September or in the future and as well to get some emails ;-)
SEE YOU hast luego CIAO bis bald
