A Year of Superlatives

Today is exactly one year since I said ka kite ano to Aotearoa and my whanau.
Or, in English, since we abandoned everyone and fled to the other side of the world.
A lot has happened. I've been unbelievably fortunate enough to spend 125 days traveling out of 366, covering over 64,000 km. 
There have been 211 blog posts, 21 trips, 14 new countries, 31 flights (plus two failed ones), 47 shows, 4 new ticks on the bucket list, and 16,933 photos to show for it all.
This is my list of superlatives: the best and the worst of a year spent exploring:
Awkwardest photoBest showLuckiest CatchColdest life lesson
Best use of a chair
Weirdest person encountered
Most expensive life lessonWorst health hazardCoolest accommodationBest musical comedyBiggest overreaction
Most frustrating encounter with bureaucracyBest weekenderWorst attempt to go undercoverBiggest anticlimaxBest actingMost embarrassing object confiscated by airport securityLongest delay
Grossest life lessonWorst night of sleepBest concertMost revealing life lesson
Favourite place(this was the hardest one of all, and in fact a three way tie. So make sure you click the right part of the words!)
