Queenstown snowboarding

For the past weeks, I have been snowboarding, sleeping, eating, going out.
That is pretty much it. I tried to find some work but have not been lucky enough yet.
Employers look only for people with damn experience to make the beds or wash toilets!
Here are some pictures taken in The Remarkables and in Coronet Peak by night:










And also some stats made by nzski:

Queenstown and Offence

I am back in Queenstown since the awful rugby performance made by the French in Christchurch on the 15th. I am looking for a job, any job, like thousands of backpackers for the winter season.
It means you have to be very lucky to get one, or be a chef, or not be an engineer.

The day before yesterday, I received a call from the Ministry of Justice to inform me that I had an unpaid fine made on the 23rd of December!
I never paid because I never saw the letter they sent.
Offence: Ex 80kph Gaz S/C
Offence Type: Police infringement
Offence Location: SH1
Minus 60$ on my account, yeah.
