Author: Brenda WilliamsI have an obsession with maintaining a clean and organized living environment. My boyfriend jokes around that I have obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) when it comes to neatness and organization; and quite frankly, although I have never been formerly diagnosed, I wouldn't doubt it. That being said, while you don't have to be a 'neat freak' like me, you should want to maintain a clean home. After all, you never know who might pop by unexpectedly, and the last thing that you want is for someone to walk in the door and see dishes piled up in the sink, books strewn about and other food items left out on the kitchen counters.I will never forget one of the times when I went to visit my boyfriend when he used to share a town home with his older brother.

This might be the smallest National Park of New Zealand, but it punches above its weight. One factor is weather, where climate is mild that you would probably get attached to it in the period of your trip. And that is one awesome reason to come anytime of 2010.For those who seek tracks and walks, would find their trip in place get to know the Coast Track and the Inland Track. The Coast Track is easier, a great stuff for beginners. Kayaking and sailing is an all day activity, the rentals and tours can be arranged right at the park, but make sure to get important informations if you don't plan to take the tour. Some pests aren't adorable to be remembered or even mentioned on your blog later on, anyway they would be pests that we've been encountering nothing extraordinary (but they are still pests). Ask some advice and basically useful informations, that won't hurt and locals would surely understand that. Mountain Biking, i love this and there are two places to best establish this activity, one is Moa Park Track, two is on the Gibbs Hill Track. Consider...more
