“I miss the feeling of coming home… when I’ve been away exploring for a while but the plane lands and I’m walking off the airbridge. I look forward to traveling again and I can’t wait to relive that feeling.”

Mischievous Puppy

"A memory I would like to relive was when I first got my puppy Bailey. Even though she was really cute, and smart, she was also super mischievous. One time she dug a hole in the sand and tried to hide it from me by laying over it. She thought she could hide it but of course the sand all over her was a dead giveaway!"

"2020 was the first year of the pandemic and my birthday was during lockdown. My mum was in Australia and couldn’t visit but she sent me this awesome cake that really made my day! I’m a huge fan of the show and was super surprised when I opened the cake box. It was the best cake ever and I was super sad to cut it up!"

Morning Bike Rides

"During the August 2021 lockdown I was in the last semester of my degree - working hard towards exams/final projects. Being stuck inside all day was hard so every morning before class I would head out for a sunrise bike ride. This helped me keep sane and start my uni day with a fresh mind. Sunrises are also beautiful! Most days consisted of a 40 km ride from Grey Lynn to Westhaven Marina to St Helliers bay and home, all before my flatmates woke up!"

On a Nearby Hill

"On a nearby hill/mountain, I met someone for the first time in person. We'd been talking online for a couple of weeks and had never met in person. Our first meeting we decided to have KFC together, he brought his picnic mat, and we sat at the top of the hill from morning until late afternoon. It was a surreal experience, spending 6 hours under the sun speaking to someone in person for the first time. And now we're together. :) Memories."

First Love

"A memory I'd like to relive is... The time I first fell in love. 2017, which was the year I met him. He was sweet, a great talker, curious and persistent. The indescribable feeling of realizing I was falling in love with him is a memory I want to relive. It was pure, genuine, and dreamy. Especially when you're young, everything felt so intense. Although the relationship did not continue after our third year together, it was a memorable experience for me."
