The Vacation of a Lifetime

Just one week after Match Day, I finished medical school! Holy crap, it still hasn't hit me that I'm done. And after moving all of our worldly possessions into storage and my parents house in the course of one weekend, we immediately took off halfway around the world. We went to the north island of New Zealand and to the kingdom of Tonga, and both were AMAZING. Luckily, I have a lot of family in New Zealand, so BF and I just went from city to city visiting everyone and exploring. Oh yeah, and something pretty big happened.... Here are some pictures capturing the adventures:
