Here are some things that are the same in any country…

Lattes: They may call them flat whites, but they still are absolutely delicious and my favorite way to wake up! Lucky for me, soy milk is also universal.

Breakups: Watching the local morning news, breakups have been a topic of conversation every day since I arrived. Maybe I’ll try to get on local TV. But I digress… What I love is that this proves breakups are universal. Rather than thinking at any given time you are the only one feeling the tremendous pain and agony of a broken heart, you’re not alone. If everyone else can get through it, so can you!

Sex & the City movie: The night before I flew to New Zealand, I took my girlfriends to see Sex & the City. It was a total Girls Night Out in the theater! I took Mr. XY to see the film a few nights ago here in Wellington and it was the same experience. Girlfriends going to the movies together. Love that!

The Gym: I’m kicking my own ass at the gym here. Strangely, I love it. That’s definitely different. What’s not changed is the fact that I make a million and one excuses NOT to workout before I give in and go.

My Writing: Same goes for my writing. A million excused followed by sitting down in front of a beautiful view of Wellington Harbor and W-R-I-T-I-N-G.

Gotta run. Need to shower and change before meeting Mr. XY and his colleagues for lunch. G’day!
