Future adventure prospects.

So I tried to do a video for this entry, but I couldn't get it to upload so looks like I'm sticking to typing out text. Last night I worked camera 4 (first time using them)  for the youth. Camera 4 is set up back in the far right corner of the auditorium so it can get shots from partly behind the stage and be able to pan over the audience. Unfortunately it is the most boring camera to work. The only tricks I could do was a slow pull out and gradual pan  left over the crowd, and that was all the director who was talking to us from the control room over the headsets wanted from me. I have found the more I learn about tv/media, the less I know.
Today looks like it's going to be a slow one. Bear Grylls is speaking at Hillsong tonight, but I'm not going to be able to go because the tickets sold out in under 24 hours two weeks ago. Time is going so fast here! I have been here for two months now, but it feels like maybe three weeks.  In hindsight, I see how important going to Sydney was that first week. It was there that we met the majority of the people we still hang out with now. The people we grouped together with back then, are the same people we  group with now.

I dearly miss camping. I used to go out about once a month or so back home, and now I have been on an outdoors hiatus for about four months now (the weather was not permitting the last few months I was home). I'm going to try going to the Blue Mountains  sometime in the upcoming months. I also would like to visit New Zealand sometime while I'm here. I have met a few people that live there and I'm hoping I could  backpack and hostel jump my way around. As far as my long term adventures go, I'm thinking South America...

First stop, Quito Ecuador. I was there for a few months on a mission trip, but I feel like I was to young to really enjoy it.
                                                     
Then Mancha Pinchu in Peru.

And finally Roi de Janerio.
 I know a lot of people are wondering "Why is he thinking about visiting other countries, he just moved to one!" But I don't plan on going on this little adventure for awhile, in fact,  maybe not even till after I'm married. Also, those close to me know I never stop dreaming up adventures to go on.
