The Itchy American

Natural beauty at its best
Wednesday, May 28th, 2008When I first handed over the $150 to go see Milford Sound I really had no idea what I was signing up for, but, as usual, everyone was doing it so I had to go too! Plus, my high school friend Jessica Rowan who studied over here suggested it when I ...
