BULA  BULA BULA  BULA ROCKIN EVERYWHERE!!!!!

                                                   ......I found you, miss new 

                                                                                        BULA!

Alrighty, each time I take a trip for romantic purposes its going to get the Bradshoe treatment - firing up photoshop and weird Sex and the City google searches. My gawd, I'm sorry here is another one. 

Yep, this fuckin thing again. 

Yall are going to pray for the day I get married so these can come to an end. ....anyway, its not this time.

Years ago we caught Setdown Bradshoe galivanting around Melbin fixing a fictious broken heart, and now, she has found a new bad romance. 

ra ra, oh la la.

 
 This whole year for Bradshoe was all about a blank slate and breaking norms. 

And shake things up she did! A challenge to date the opposite of my usual type arose.

Bid farewell to a spicy South American tour.... 

            
                        * this tour requires a renaissance 🫦*



But uh......Fiji? you are living in Brisbane! what is this!? 

*ahem*  This made up character, and myself,  never give up on frequency of travel for anyone, its catch flights not feelings; so if you have feelings, you best be catching those flights. Afterall my much-anticipated visit with my island ohana for HNL Pride and Halloween was on the whoreizon...



I met a dude, we will call contestant number 2 just before I left on my trip. After pushing my HI trip out from 10 to 25 days, I was on the mainland for an LA catch up.  Watching this unfold aboard contestant number 2 grew anxious to see me. He was not yet aware I am notorious for this behaviour. 

Contestant Number 2...."can we meet somewhere along the way?"
                                                    Me:  "Fiji"

Let the games begin. 


                                  as i said. 
 

On arrival Bradshoe and contestant number 2 are taken to a romantic villa on the ocean....splendid.

DO ME ON THE SWANS!

...

And he did



The rest of this was chill. Small private island, couple villas. 
 relaxing down time from all my relaxing down time. 

"We joked and we weaved our baskets"  while drinking a fuck ton of Kava




This was the warmest water I've ever swam in btw

Look at this cunt.

Ended the whole thing with a couple days around the mainland - the mud bath was 10/10



I didnt go very far with contestant 2 when I got back to Brissy, but man that trip was a great time. 


Queenstown

ITS MY BIRTHDAY         


Yes - in a month I will be back in Hawaii showing my mom around my old stomping grounds. but I still want an island for my birthday, an island where I can dip my body in glacial fed waters and enjoy nature to the fullest. 


IM GOIN TO QUEENSTOWN



I love this island because its not your typical tropical vibe - its like if Colorado was an island. 


Casual - older - still a weirdo. On a stroll to find where im going to jump into this water....its FREEZING by the way


Getting closer....

Yes.  Yes. YES. 





I didnt care. I lived my best life. I felt every bit of this frigid water cut through my bones till I felt nothing and it was glorious. 


Back on my bridge nonsense. 


Had a nice Bday root out here 


"can host"


Yeah look - I'm on my bday trip, not too keen on posting heaps. It was fucking awesome - deffo need to come back to NZ again.
