It’s no secret that a large part of my trip was devoted to recording every minutae of the experience. Doing so was no small effort on my part. Once I hit New Zealand, I pretty much wrote a blog post, posted pictures, and created a custom Google map for every single day of the trip. I’d be lying if I said it was easy. In general, I was spending about an hour and a half each and every day putting in the work to share this stuff with everyone. However, once I got into the habit. It wasn’t all that bad. Usually, at the end of a day cycling, I’d buy a giant beer, and sit down with my gear and work at it. I’d usually get some pretty interested people wanting to know what I was up to, so I’d make some new friends. By the time I was done my writing, I had other things to do. Also, I knew there was no way I’d ever be able to capture my thoughts unless it was the same day things happened.
