New Zealand Press Trip
It’s almost here. In ten days, I leave for my New Zealand Press trip. I am getting on a plane for 13 hours, and traveling to another hemisphere. My heart and soul will be tugged in every direction. I’ve never left the kids for more than a few days, and have never left the country without them, either. I’ll be a full day ahead of them. **Okay, that part is pretty cool, but I’m not quite sleeping at night…

Why am I telling you this? Well, since most of you, my awesome friends/readers are moms like me, I figured you’d either have advice for me, or want to experience the bittersweetness of finding yourself again, post kids alongside me.
How do you want me to document the trip for you? Post on here? Facebook? Do you want videos, or pictures? What have you always wanted to know or see about New Zealand? Gimme all your unfiltered thoughts, ideas, and questions!

This sounds like a great opportunity for you to have you time. You can post on both blog and facebook and take a lot of photos to share with everyone. As a mother it is hard leaving the kids but you just have to trust who you are leaving them with and you can always Skype with the kids. Technology is a beautiful thing now days. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and have a great trip.
I’m glad that you had fun in your Press Trip! Such an amazing experienced.
This sounds so exciting. I think videos would be a great idea. I love watching them especially when people are traveling and I can see what they are seeing.
Oh my goodness! I’m so excited for you, but I also understand how you must feel to have to leave the kids behind. They’ll be fine (and so will you!). It will be hard, but you’ll get through it. Enjoy this trip of a lifetime!
I am so excited to read all about this amazing trip. I hope you are able to get a ton of photos to share with us.
Sounds like a wonderful opportunity. I have never been to New Zealand before. I’ve heard it’s really beautiful there though. I would love to go sometime. I hope you have a great trip!
How FUN! I’ve never been to New Zealand, but it’s beautiful. You’re going to have a blast! Please do share photos!
