If you want to follow my walk from Facebook, you can search for 'Te Araroa - Rambling Dave' and 'Like' that page. You should have all the fun of Facebook there.

Thanks to generous donations and lots of planning, I am finally going! My flight leaves on 20th June 2011 and arrives 22nd June. I leave the day before the UK's longest day and land on New Zealand's shortest day!
I will be staying with my friend Adam upon arrival and I'm currently sorting out people to stay with from www.helpx.net to stay with until the Spring arrives in the Southern hemisphere!
