I have started to read a lot of photo blogs lately, especially other Daily Photo blogs. One of my favorites is Auckland Daily Photo. So, I was super happy to be given a “Blogging Best Friend” tag from Lachezar of that very blog.
I have always been fascinated by New Zealand–springing from my Split Enz/Neil Finn/Crowded House adoration (read a little about that here), then lasting due to New Zealand’s beauty–and his blog brings me a slice of that beautiful country daily. His pictures are simple and precise, truly an inspiration.
The rules of the tag are below, I have chosen the following blogs in part based on the rules, and in part because I haven’t ever linked to them before and I wanted to introduce them:
Big Hair Envy: : Her own tagline says it best “Confessions of a former spiral perm addict.” I don’t know where she is, somewhere country-ish. Where are you?
The Mental Pause Chronicles:: Serious fun and she never, ever talks about shoes, chardonnay, laundry, football,, how best to clean your kitchen…or llamas., she never talks about llamas. She kicks out the humor from this place called “Connecticut.”
Dry as toast:: My newest follower. She is a young writer living in New York. I just want to squeeze her she’s so adorable and then get all bossy every time I read her posts.
I love retro things: : After reading Amy’s blog I feel like I have just chatted with a friend. She’s also in New Zealand.
Yankee in Belgrade: : Bibi’s daily photo blog is like going to Serbia daily, without the jet lag or language barrier.
If you have the time, feel free to respond to the tag–I will still be your BBF, even if you can’t do it.
1. Only five people are allowed
2. Four have to be dedicated followers of your blog
3. One has to be someone new or recently new to your blog and live in another part of the world
4. You must link back to whoever linked to you
You are so funny and cute….
I will be checking out all your faves. Thanks for sharing.
I heart a nice llama.
this is awesome! I was born and raised in Auckland, lived there for 23 years before moving up north. btw if you want to see some more photos of New Zealand check out my photoblog at treefernphotos.blogspot.com
Aww thanks for introducing me Suz! A big hug with a giant side of sass goes to you 😉
I haven’t ever heard of these Daily Photo Blogs before. what a great idea. I know it’s not YOUR idea, I’m just saying. I love the Belgrade one, I’ve always wanted to go there.
yes, my husband and I have decided when America finally does completely fall apart, or become socialist, we’re moving to New Zealand. Perhaps I can teach at the school of general knowledge?
Hey Chickie! Thanks for the tag:) I won’t be able to post it until mid-week, but I WILL post it!!!
I think I’ve heard of Connecticut before, it’s to the right of us I think. If you are standing looking at Canada, it’s to the right. I love New Zealand too. I have been there twice and want to go back. If McCain wins I just might.
Forgot to mention that I am in the beautiful Commonwealth of Virginia:)
How on earth did I miss this? Thanks, and I will get to this. Promise;) Just after I have a little drinkie poo.
