New Year, New Plans

Finally, I have something to look forward to!
I’ve booked flights to go to Rarotonga in February 🙂
As a Christmas Present, I got tickets for my Boyfriend and myself to spend 5 days on this beautiful island.
I decided on Rarotonga because Jetstar was doing a really good deal on flights. So good in fact that I contacted my friend Kerri and asked if her and her husband wanted to join us for 5 days away too and she said yes 🙂

A quick break-down on the people we’re holidaying with – I met Kerri back in 2014 when I was studying to be a nanny (yes you can get a certificate in nannying believe it or not) she wasn’t in my class however, she was my Nanny mum that I was placed with.
So I was actually looking after her 3 boys while she went to work.

When I was finished my 6 months of study, her and Glen (her Husband) offered me a full-time job with them and I accepted. For some reason, even though I don’t work for her anymore, we stayed really good friends. She literally lived down the road from me so I’d house-sit for them all the time and pop round randomly for chats.
Now that they’ve moved about 5 minutes away, I still pop round randomly for chats but stay for literally 5 hours and drag her to the gym with me for some company from time to time.
So yes – we’re all off to Rarotonga in February!

In other good news, I have a new job 🙂
I don’t start until I get back from Rarotonga which is still around a month away, but I’ll be leaving the Radio Station I work for and go on to become a Travel Agent. Pretty suited for me don’t you think?
It’s a little bit nerve racking because of everything I have to learn but I’m looking-forward to getting my foot in the door with a career I’m actually really interested in.
In terms of the Flight Attending path….I’m holding off on that at the moment. I think everything happens for a reason, and I’m sensing that right now just isn’t the right time for me to become an Air Hostess.
I’ll see where this Travel Agent path takes me instead. I could end up hating it or absolutely loving it but either way I hope I get some good travel deals.

I hope everyone had a good break over the Christmas/New Year holidays.
I had a wonderful time spent sunbathing up in Mount Maunganui – so much in fact that I’m about to write a post on all the things you can enjoy there. Even if you’re on a budget.

Happy New Year!
