BIOGRAPHY

Once upon a time, DOLITTLE had been an esteemed name within the Capitol. Your great, great ( maybe there were three greats – you don't really know how it works ) grandfather had been a general during the dark days, instrumental in implementing order within the unruly districts. His son had become a gamemaker, and the son after that had made his fortune overseeing the import and export of fruits from the districts to the Capitol. The fourth generation had inherited this business – Dolittle Imports & Exports – and enough riches along with it to keep any ordinary man satisfied.

You recall your parents telling you that you'd met through your family's business – your mother had been an employee and, at the time, their affair had been quite scandalous. You don't remember the details, however, because the story had been long and convoluted and it had not been about you, so they had quickly lost your interest. The important part is that they were married a few short months later – perhaps to avoid further scandal for the company, or perhaps just because they were so deeply in love with one another.

Children were the next logical step for the young married couple – but a month of trying turned into two, then six, then twelve. It soon became clear that starting a family would not be as simple as they would have liked – but, fortunately, they were gifted with the money and resources needed to ensure that they did not have to rely on simple biology. You and your brother are their miracles – children they'd almost given up hope on having, gifted to them by circumstance and privilege. As a result, they provide for you whatever your hearts desire.

You are a spoiled child, though not any more so than your peers. You never worry about food being on the table, or the latest clothes in your closet, or games or toys or accessories – so you take these things largely for granted. You have never known a life without a silver spoon in your mouth and the certainty of a life of luxury. You will never have a reason to toil – and so you never learn the value of trying particularly hard at anything which you don't find fun. Academic pursuits fall by the wayside as you spend your youth more concerned about parties and romance than grades or, god forbid, career prospects. Your parents, for their part, are content to let you do whatever you want – never quite having the heart to use the word no against you.

Your early adulthood continues in much the same way. You don't attend university with most of your peers – instead, you spend your nights out with interesting strangers and your days telling tales of your exploits. You earn various labels from your peers – ditzy, flighty, unfocused – sure, they're mostly true, but it's still rude. You jump carelessly from relationship to relationship, party to party, couch to couch, adventure to adventure – never committing to one person or place or thing for longer than your limited attention span can manage. You might be aimless, but you are untethered, free, and happy.

Of course, your hedonistic, years' long bender could only last for so long. When people ask about your family's fall from grace, you don't really know how to answer – mostly because you weren't paying much attention as it happened. You think it started with your father – a series of unwise financial decisions led to his business acquiring quite a sum of debt. This, however, you were assured would not be a problem. Your family is well-liked within the Capitol, and there is no rush for your father to repay what he owes just yet – his business churns along as though nothing were wrong.

And maybe nothing would have been, were it not for the exposé that followed about your mother only a few short months later. Various accusations are lobbed at your family – the most alarming of which is that your mother cheated on your father with a member of the household staff. Your mother is quick to dismiss this – and you are inclined to believe her, if only because of how poorly you'd seen her treat her staff in the past. It doesn't matter what she says, though – rumours are like a virus in the Capitol, fast-spreading and deadly. It all snowballs from there.

Overnight, your family is ousted from the Capitol elite. There is a dark stain on the name Dolittle – never mind that most people at your parents' country clubs have committed far worse sins than adultery – their sins are not public knowledge, and are easily forgotten. Your mother is blacklisted from everything from her weekly book clubs to Capitol galas. With your family's reputation taking a vicious nosedive, your father's business associates ( former friends ) are less willing to forgive his debts. Within a matter of weeks, he has lost his business entirely.

Truthfully, you'd not really cared about the misfortune befalling your parents up until this point – mostly because it hadn't yet directly affected you. Sure, people look at you funny, and they cannot help but ask if the stories are true. And, sure, it's a little more difficult to get your name on lists at the more exclusive clubs – but you work around these problems and wait for this to blow over. You don't really start to worry until your credit card is declined trying to buy tequila – even so, you think it's a cruel joke when your father calls a family meeting to inform you that most of the family's assets have been lost. That the business is gone.

And, most alarming of all, that they cannot finance you anymore.

You almost choke on your drink when your parents inform you that you'd need to find a job if you're in need of money. See, you're almost twenty-four years old, you've never worked a day in your life, and you don't want to start now. It seems humiliating, not to mention, boring. Plus, it would get in the way of your vlogging. But, the alternative seems to be losing your apartment and your furniture and your jewellery and your pet ferrets and all of your nice clothes – and parting with these things is even more unbearable than working. It will only be temporary, after all, until your father gets his business back.

You use what little influence you have left to swindle yourself a position working for the games. You are allowed to work as an assistant to the District Six escort – and the job is remarkably easy. It also happens to involve dressing up in pretty outfits and parading about on stage, which happen to be two of your favourite things. After a couple of years as an assistant, you are promoted to escort the tributes from District Eleven – you had told your boss that you would be perfect for the job given your family's ties to the district. Each year, you inform the tributes that your father used to sell their fruit in the Capitol as an icebreaker, and every year they roll their eyes at you.

You like to think you're good at the job – but nobody else would ever agree with you. You're disorangised, flighty, and you can never seem to remember anybody's names. But, given District Eleven's historically awful track record in the games, nobody really notices that you're not very good at what you're supposed to be doing. Maybe that's why, when District Two's escort retires just before the ninety-second games, you are picked to replace him. You don't get any better at your job when you transfer to District Two ( though you tend to think you have – and nobody has the heart to openly disagree ), but nobody seems to notice or care, probably because your tributes are generally more than capable of taking care of themselves.

You do quite like your job, even though you are highly incompetent. You like that they pay you ( big bonus ), that it affords you access to parties and social status that your family is currently locked out of, and that it gets your face on television. It's still a temporary gig, of course – and the best way for you to finance all the finer things in life that you have come to enjoy while you wait for your family to rebuild their status and wealth. It's been eight years, but you have a feeling that any day now will be the day that you are freed from the shackles of mediocrity and propelled back into the elite. Any day now.

1/28/23

Flight TN (Air Tahiti) 101 has stopped in Papeete for a layover on the way to Auckland.

Last night, I departed from SFO, and transferred planes at LAX.

I will spend a moment in Papeete before boarding a flight again, toward New Zealand, and the date line.

Once in Auckland, I will make my way to the harbor, to board the Majestic Princess.

The scheduled departure of the boat was delayed by three hours, to 10 P.M., due to weather conditions.

There is a fair chance of rain on most of the days that I could check the forecast for in New Zealand and Australia.

On the way here, I watched Elvis, read some of Doctor Zhivago, and listened to downloads.

1/29/23

Arrival in Auckland is met with transportation to the Auckland harbor.

It takes very little delay to gather myself after the flight and the change in time.

Many of the arriving flights had been delayed or rescheduled, according to signage at the airport, due to the flooding of the runway.

I board the Majestic Princess, unpack, shower, and tour the ship’s amenities. This includes a trip to the bar, and the consumption of four Long Island Iced Teas. Shortly after, I am able to sleep, after I last woke in California, on the 27th.

1/30/23

It was past midnight when I woke up and noticed that the ship was in motion. I laid awake for a moment before deciding upon staying conscious. I ordered a veggie burger and an Americano, walked to the deck to see the ship’s wake, and then to the other side of the boat, to stop by the casino. It was closed.

The ship would broadcast the NFC Championship at 9 A.M. in the morning, after my breakfast. As the game went through the first quarter, I watched the ship turn into its port in Tauranga. I watched the game from a hot tub until half-time, at which point I changed clothes and ate on the deck, until the third quarter of the game.

It was about a half-mile walk to the trails, the name of the mountain (a.k.a. Mount Maunganui or “The Mount”) that overlooks the peninsula and harbor of Tauranga. I hiked up one side, and saw some sheep along the way. I walked down another trail that led me to the other side of the Tauranga peninsula.

I walked alongside the beach, into a mini-peninsula off the main beach. I did some window-shopping through the mid-peninsula before finding myself near the boat. It was simpler to board again, eat again, and fall asleep for a while. When I woke up, in the evening I ordered five plates of food to the room, and finished the meal while watching Marilyn Monroe and Jane Russell in Gentlemen Prefer Blondes.

It was early enough, when the movie was over, to get drinks at the bar, and check out the Freddie Mercury tribute concert at the Princess Theater.

1/31/23

The day was highlighted by a scheduled trip to the Hobbiton movie set, the filming location for the setting of the Shire in the Lord of the Rings and Hobbit trilogies.

Before I left the ship for the drive to the set, I watched the beginning of The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, until the moment right before Bilbo decides to embark on the journey with the dwarves.

The set is located on a farm, past a range of mountains when traveling from Tauranga.

The tour began highlighting areas where specific scenes from the movies were shot, and the discussion of camera techniques used in the movie. Different areas on the set were sized proportionally, to make any character appear larger or smaller in respect to it.

I could recognize these settings, and took many photos. The tour went around the set, and ended near the Green Dragon Inn, where I was served, by our tour guide, Calen, a cup of ale.

The drive to and from the set took about an hour and 15 minutes each way. The driver discussed major exports of the area, including timber, kiwi fruit, and dairy products. I recognized the Zespri brand name as we passed by the office building for the kiwi fruit company.

Return to the ship was followed by a meal and the next hour of the first Hobbit movie. I then went to the indoor pool for what was around two hours. Patrick McCullough performed in the Princess Theater in the evening.

2/1/23

The journey’s first full day at sea would consist of traveling from Tauranga to Wellington. It started early, with breakfast, but with little other activity until my visit to the casino. My initial $20 AUD transfer was gone in just a few spins. I waited to eat at Alfredo’s, where I would eat three times throughout the day. I resumed gambling, maintaining a bank for the slots while losing at the tables. I eventually hit a slots bonus that brought me to $280 AUD, after I had put in $140 AUD in total.

I watched the Maori ambassador’s presentation on traditions and mythology in the Princess Theater. This was followed by my next visit to Alfredo;’s, in the ship’s atrium. It was in the atrium that I then participated in a Haka dance with the ambassadors. Crew members began to set up a champagne waterfall, which I watched through, nearly to its completion. At 6:30 P.M., the officers of the ship were introduced at the waterfall ceremony. I took a glass of champagne from a nearby server and sat at Alfredo’s again. I began watching Alien: Covenant, but not to its conclusion, before the night ended.

There was a musical performance in the Princess Theater. I found it happening after participating in the guessing contest for the weight of a pig-sculpture in the art studio.

2/2/23

I have found myself waking up early, as was the case today. Upon arrival in Wellington, I am ready to explore the city. The bus takes me near the cable car, which runs up a hill to the botanical gardens. These gardens run towards the side and down the hill, and included native NZ species of flora, and more - a herb garden, rose garden, and greenhouse with a pond full of guppies. The downhill trail ends back near the parliament building, which I detoured around. I walked closer to the harbor-coastline area to the Maritime Museum. There were a few objects of interest there. A walk along the coastline took me to the Te Papa Museum, which exhibited nature-science, a NZ WWI display, abstract art, traditional Maori pieces and more. The bus to the ship gathered passengers right behind the museum. Back on the boat, I took a moment to decide whether to watch the movie being shown on the deck, Dakota, before changing, and watching it from a hot tub. I met two, from Korea, in the tub.

I went to the atrium, alternated alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks three times, for six drinks total, before getting two Americanos saturated with brown sugar. The live music was okay. I watched the rest of Alien: Covenant and slept.

2/3/23

Another early day started at 5:30 A.M., until the hills around our destination port appeared around us at breakfast. The timing would allow for a load of laundry to be completed while the ship docked. In Port Shakespeare, shuttle buses took cruise-ship passengers to the town of Picton. A primary glimpse into the ocean water, from the Picton harbor beach, was very red - what I understood to be red algae. I kept walking for what was at least 2.5 hours round-trip.

It began to rain, most heavily when I decided to turn around, at the viewpoint on the trail labeled as the viewpoint for Queen Charlotte’s Sound. My shoes were a little moist, as was my passport, when I ended up back at the harbor. The couple I had met the day prior offered a pint of beer, which I drank rather quickly, before asking where I could get some soda. There was a nearby sandwich and soda shop. I stopped by, and walked through the street full of souvenir shops and restaurants, before ending up at a store, where I bought a bottle of Lawson’s Dry Hills Reserve Pinot Noir. Ideally, I would have gone on some sort of wine tour, but I did not. I was allowed to bring the wine back on board the boat.

The ship leaves Queen Charlotte Sound and turns right, to navigate southward on the southern island. It is picturesque, and I combine sightseeing from the lido deck with drinks from Alex and Whinn at the atrium’s Vines bar.

2/4/23

The ship docked in Lyttleton harbor, and I was in the initial queue to go ashore. Shuttles awaited for the journey into Lyttelton or Christchurch. Notes from my booked tour instructed me to board for Lyttelton and transfer in the port-city.

The tour bus went north around Governor’s Bay before taking the road over the mountain range that divides Christchurch from Lyttelton. Descent into Christchurch gave way to a view of the mountain-park for mountain bikers and zip-liners, and a more distant picture of Christchurch and New Zealand’s Alps. A stop was made for this moment, to observe.

Scottie, the tour guide, drove onto the streets of Christchurch while beginning to explain the effect of the hundreds of earthquakes that struck the city between 2010 and 2012. 70% of the city was rebuilt since that time, into the present day, in which the city has been reopened to cruise-ship passengers for its first year since. A wall of names downtown commemorates those lost.

Free time in the city would consist of walking by that memorial and along the river. This was followed by a few moments at the botanical gardens. There is much evidence of the effect that the earthquakes had still. In the more suburban areas, less so, as the “red zone” now delineates the area in which construction cannot take place due to risks, in the event of another earthquake. This zone was quite large, and took up most of the trip on our way to the beach in Brighton.

A few more winding roads through the jagged peninsulas wold lead to the port-city where we landed. I had a moment to stop at Eruption Brewing to down a lager on the deck.

There was a moment in the evening, at the Vines bar, as I read the next pages of Zhivago. This was followed by another moment, as I looked out the window to see three animals, apparently, jumping through the ship’s wake. I could identify the animal in the third instance as a penguin.

I kept drinking and eating, watched Morbius on the pool deck, and checked out the late-night dance in the atrium before calling it a night.

2/5/23

The ship docked at Port Chalmers in the early morning.

Upon entering the port-city, I walked through the main city street, up through a path by the Presbyterian Church, and to a garden that house a lookout over the harbor, the dock, and city hall. Buses were ready to take passengers to the city of Dunedin. The city center is an octagon-shaped block with a road for buses going horizontally through. It was pretty early in the morning, on a Sunday, and I would need to walk the same path twice t be there for various sites’ hours of operation. These sites included the rail station, the Toitū Otago Settlers Museum, and the Chinese Garden. I visited three churches, the First Church of Otago, St. Paul’s Cathedral, and the St. Joseph Cathedral. I attended mass at St. Paul’s until the communal prayers, then walked to the St. Joseph Cathedral, just before communal prayers.

I walked back to the octagon, and had fish and chips at a place called Social Club. This was followed by a visit to the Dunedin Public Art Gallery. This would conclude my visit to the city, as buses to the ship departed from the octagon.

I stayed wake into the early hours of the next morning, as the DJ took over the atrium/dance floor per usual. Midnight marked the arrival of my birthday.

2/6/23 - 2/8/23

It was a rather late night, the previous night.

Three days were spent to cross the Tasman Sea, into Australia.

I dined at the Crown Grill for my birthday festivities. The next day’s dinner would be in the Symphony Dining Room. On the next, dinner was at the Harmony Restaurant. The food at all three locations on the ship was delectable.

My stateroom is located near the front of the ship, which can apparently rock with the waves, as the ship presses forward. The movement could have been worse, but it did not go unnoticed. We were quite close to Tasmania on the night before we got there, and the going was pretty easy, much of the early morning consisting of cruising through the bay and into the Hobart port.

2/9/23

Dawn arrives as the ship arrives in the port of Hobart. I watched the ship dock in the morning light. The groups for excursions into Tasmania are assembled in the Princess Theater. Several groups prepare to board buses to the Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary. I had looked into this excursion for an opportunity to see Tasmanian Devils. This was the first instance in which I had done so. There were several species native to Australia there as well, an abundance of kangaroos, some emus, birds, etc. We were bussed back towards the ship, stopping by the bridge for a photo-op across the bay from Hobart.

The bus dropped us off at the port, there was still about six hours to walk through the city. I started west, towards the other side of the port, and out into the respective peninsula. The University of Tasmania is located there, and a little further is a residential area in which I found a hotel bar that poured me a Cascade, a native Tasmanian beer. The path would lead back towards but past the ship, through downtown Hobart past various athletics facilities, through a fallen soldiers’ memorial, to a track meet in progress. This path continued through to the botanical gardens. I would check the time to be back on the boat, stopping by the war memorial, the ANZAC eye.

The Hobart Brewing Co. is located right next to the port, and I stop for a flavored beer.

2/10/23

The last day of the cruise is a day at sea, between Tasmania and Sydney. It is a fairly good moment. I found myself on the deck at times, in the atrium as the choir sang Oklahoma!, and dining in the Allegro Dining Room that evening. I had barramundi. The Noordam cruises alongside us, I observed, as the evening continued.

2/11/23

We arrived in the port of Sydney at around 5 A.M. I am ready to leave with my disembarkation group at 8 A.M. It’s a pretty good feeling, sunrise over the Sydney Opera House. I am not feeling any fatigue. The deal I booked online was a bus pass/hostel package, with plenty of distance to cover up the east coast of Australia. Accommodations are about a mile inland, near Town Hall. I dropped off my bags at the Nomads Hostel location and begin my first day of two in Sydney. Proceeding east past Town Hall is the ANZAC War Memorial and the botanical gardens. Along the path northward is the Art Gallery of New South Wales, made up of two separate buildings. There are a few nice pieces there, I’m not sure I recognized any in particular, maybe some artists here and there. I continued north through the gardens and past the Opera House again, towards the Sydney Harbor Bridge. At this moment in the day, I do not have any time constraints, but the walk over the bridge and back to the hostel took about 2 hours. It’s at this moment that I get ready to attend the performance of La Boheme at the opera house. This preparation includes the consumption of Somersby cider and jalapeño poppers at the hostel bar.

2/12/23

I made the route out to take for the second and last planned day in Sydney. It was through to the west via train to to the Olympic park, and then after a walk through it, a ferry ride back to the quay. It was a pretty lengthy trek. The bus left at 7 P.M., which left me some time to visit Bondi Beach, walk around there, and take the bus and subway back to the city center where I had left my bags, and where the Greyhound bus would depart from.

2/13/23

The bus ride has taken about 19 hours to Brisbane. This area of Australia is made up of national parks and Eucalyptus forests. I looked out the window for a good while until it was overwhelmingly dark outside, at which point I watched the last two episodes of the National Treasure series on my phone. Traffic increased as we approached the city of Brisbane. The Super Bowl was occurring, and I listened in. When I arrived, I walked to the Nomads hostel, and left my bags there before check-in at 3 P.M. The central business district is pretty nice, and it is fairly hot outside - I stopped by Starbucks for a refresher and an ice-water. The city is built alongside a river, and there’s a smaller arts part of the city as well on the other side of the river from the business district. This evening walk included three museums, a cozy park, and a ferris-wheel ride. I got a ticket for an evening concert - classical music, a chamber orchestra led by violinist Ilya Gringolts. I walked back to the hostel, checked in, showered, and got sushi. Then, I went to the concert.

2/14/23

The Brisbane train station is one block from the hostel. I got a vending machine espresso drink from the station before departing towards the Australia Zoo. I had seen a few episodes of Crikey! It’s the Irwins before my trip started. It was a good stop to make. I went around the zoo and ended up in the middle of it, where the crocodiles were. The crocodiles were from Australia, some with backstories on display. I liked the alligators as well, and they were from the U.S.A. I got an Icee by the African savannah exhibit, where there were zebras, giraffes, and rhinos. There was a tiger feeding. I got a salad before the Crocoseum show - trained birds flying from trainer to trainer, and crocodile feeding. There was a moment to stop by the animal hospital before going back to Brisbane. I had potato gnocchi for dinner.

2/15/23

It was a pretty nice, early morning. I got some fruit buns at Woolworth’s grocery store before my bus to Airlie Beach. This bus ride would take the rest of the day and the morning of the next. I got a long black from the station cafe. The Dallas Stars played, and I listened to that. I revisited some of my Youtube Music listening history from two or three years ago. This included “Moonshadow” by Cat Stevens., and “Let Me Go” by Alesso, Hailee Steinfeld, and Florida-Georgia Line.

2/16/23

Once in Airlie Beach, I decided to go on a boat ride to a nearby island. This is the southern part of the Great Barrier Reef. The boat, the Camira, sailed out to Whitsunday Island. We anchored by one side of the island to snorkel, and I made use of my underwater camera in pursuit of some colorful marine life. Once anchored by another part of the island, we hiked up to a lookout over the beach, and walked down to it as well. Lunch for me was a veggie burger. I tried the Strongbow and the Great Northern Brewing Co. “Super Crisp.” In the evening would be a moment to walk through Airlie Beach - the pools, the beach, and the harbor, where I got a pizza. The hostel pool area was closed, but I sat down and almost fell asleep there.

2/17/23

The bus to Townsville departed at 9:50 A.M., by which time I had walked through the town again, to McDonalds, Woolworth’s and a pharmacy, where I got a pin with turtles on it, for my backpack. The bus ride there took about five hours. The bus station is linked to the ferry system between the town and Magnetic Island, where I planned to stay for two nights. I stopped by the hostel, but I had forgotten to make a reservation. The other hostel on the map was in Picnic Bay, about a mile away. I walked with a resident on the trail there. The island is pretty nice, not too populated, and I had a squash salad and a beer flight at Maggie Island Brewery - a fresh cucumber beer stood out - the last one on the flight. After that, I did the laundry, considering the hike to West Point, as it began to rain.

2/18/23

Early morning, I had the cup ramen noodles I had, and waded in the pool with Louie, an Australian Shepherd. He swam across a few times, but I was preparing for my trip to Horseshoe Bay, on the other side of the island. This hike would start at the bay and go around the outer side to the north-east, down south, and towards the lookout, located closer to the center of the island, up a long flight of stairs. Adam, from the hostel, told me that I should bring carrots for the rock wallabies, if I intended on feeding them. I got these from the store at Horseshoe Bay. I walked on the trail as it presented itself, and although it was raining, I enjoyed looking at the beachfronts and flora. The informational guidepost mentioned that this island was a precautionary WWII lookout, used both by Australian and U.S.A. soldiers in that time. The lookout at the top was just two buildings. The Magnetic Island National Park entrance was nearby, where I waited for the bus. I rode to the south-eastern part of the island where the rock wallabies lived. I fed one a carrot immediately, gave one to some tourists who had scootered there, and with no other wallabies around, ate the last one. I missed the next bus back to Picnic Bay. There was a store nearby, where I got pasta, sauce, sour skittles, cheese, chips, and pineapple juice. I waited by the bus stop as the rain stopped and started again, before the next bus. I shared the pasta with some tourists from Germany.

2/19/23

I woke up in time to swim at the Picnic Bay beach, and then again at the hostel pool with Louie. I took the 10 A.M. ferry back to Townsville, and walked through a memorial park. I got a pizza by the Townsville beach, and some ice cream after that. The bus to Cairns would be at 2:40 P.M., and I walked the beach for a bit, got some beers as UFC played on T.V., and wandered back to the station. It was nighttime in Cairns when I got there.

2/20/23

The early morning consisted of breakfast at McDonalds, by the harbor, where I boarded the Evolution to scuba-dive. The bus stopped at two different locations for diving and snorkeling. We were given some instruction on how to dive, on the way there.I opted to dive twice. The first time I dove, a fellow diver, Josephine, and I linked arms with an instructor. We descended, and some things that stood out to me were the shark, and a fish that followed me about the size of my upper body. After the dive, I snorkeled. The ship, the Evolution, moved to its next location, the North Hastings Reef. This location had more coral, and we dove in a group of five, including the instructor. We saw a few more colorful fish, a few giant clams, sea cucumbers, and two more sharks. Both dives were about 15-20 minutes. I snorkeled again, after removing the self-contained underwater breathing apparatus. I saw a turtle, a lone jellyfish, and a few fish by the boat that looked like Dory from Finding Nemo. The ship made its way back to Cairns, where I received my PADI certificate for my dive. I stopped by a restaurant for some fried seafood and a XXXX beer, then got some gelato, proceeding to walk the length of the beach and turn around towards the hostel.

2/21/23

I opted not to go to the rainforest/gondola-trip nearby, where I was aware of a koala sanctuary. I got a falafel wrap, and proceeded to the Cairns Aquarium. It was a good way to wind down the trip, looking at the fish and turtles. I looked into the Carins Turtle Rehabilitation Centre, where we saw two turtles. Carlotta was missing a left flipper, and was adjusting to swim without it. There was another turtle that had a balance issue due to one of the pressure systems in the head. I went back to Gilligan’s for the afternoon, and went to the pool. I drank a lot that evening, and got drinks for some of my roommates.

2/22/23

My flight home would be at 6:10 P.M., and I walked all the way to the airport from the hostel, through the inner city instead of the beach, and through the Cairns Botanic Gardens and rainforest. I got there at around 2 P.M. I got some food and beer, a few mementos from the airport shop, and boarded the flight to Singapore. I would arrive there at around 11:00 P.M.

2/23/23

Early morning, and I have gotten on a train to the city, but I mistook which stop to transfer, and was stranded, as that was the last train. I exited the station and waved down a cab. I explained what I wanted to do in Singapore, and he took me where I wanted to go. We stopped first by the Gardens by the Bay, where the park structures were unlit. I ran around the park for a bit, then we proceeded to a lookout, where the Sands, the harbor, and the dam between the river and the sea were visible. We drove through the inner city, and stopped at Little India to eat. I had seafood noodles, the driver had an egg dish. We had some coffee, and I was not allowed to pay for the meal. The driver stopped by to get gas, as we went back to the airport. My flight would leave from Terminal 3. Most of the airport was closed, but I went to the Jewel and fell asleep in there for a few hours, where the waterfall would run, but was not for the night hours. A few more hours would conclude the trip.

“Brazil will import about 700,000 boxes of Chilean cherries in this campaign”

Three days before the start of the new year, Chilean cherry shipments registered a rise in the Brazilian market. “To date, Brazil has imported 630,000 boxes of cherries. By the same date of the previous season, it had imported 450,000 boxes,” stated Julio Cesar Zanardi, founder of Garden Fruit, one of Brazil's largest fruit importers.

Chilean exporters have increased the volume exported by trucks to closer and more economical destinations, such as Brazil, due to the logistical crisis and the increase in freight and costs. Importers are betting on popularizing the consumption of this fruit in summer.

Zanardi says that Chile has been sending cherries to Brazil for years, but that there's been an increase in the volumes shipped in the 2022-23 campaign because of Chile's increased production. “Up until today, our company has received 190,000 five-kilo boxes versus the 105,000 boxes we had received in the previous season. Thus, we project that we will reach 220,000 boxes, versus the previous 110,000,” Zanardi stated. “Brazil will import about 700,000 boxes of Chilean cherries in this campaign, i.e. almost 35% more than the 520,000 boxes that it imported in the previous season.”

Evolving Dynamics: Ethylene Market's 4.09% CAGR Story

According to the ChemAnalyst report titled "Global Ethylene Market Analysis: Plant Capacity, Production, Operating Efficiency, Demand & Supply, End-User Industries, Sales Channel, Regional Demand, Foreign Trade, Company Share, 2015-2035," the ethylene market is poised for significant expansion and is expected to reach 260 million tonnes by 2035. This growth is anticipated to occur at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.09% during the forecast period. The increasing demand for ethylene across various end-use industries, including Polyethylene, Ethylene Oxide, Ethylene Dichloride, Ethylene Benzene, and others, is expected to drive the demand for ethylene in the years to come, with the polyethylene manufacturing sector leading the global ethylene market.

Ethylene is a colorless gas with a fruity smell and is produced through the steam-cracking process of feedstocks such as ethane and naphtha. This process involves pyrolysis, which is highly endothermic and occurs at temperatures around 750 degrees Celsius. Ethylene finds applications in various industries, including agriculture, chemical synthesis, and as a refrigerant in petrochemical industries and a fuel gas in welding and cutting processes. In agriculture, it is used to ripen fruits such as tomatoes, bananas, and mangoes.

The primary driver of the global ethylene market is the polyethylene industry. Polyethylene is known for its excellent chemical and abrasion resistance, low friction coefficient, lightweight properties, and minimal water absorption. It is widely used in the food and beverage sector for packaging, including grocery bags, toys, cable insulation, squeeze bottles, cups, bowls, and housewares. The increasing urban population and the growing demand for ready-to-eat products are expected to boost the polyethylene market, driving the demand for ethylene.

What does Saudi import the most?

What comes to mind when you hear the word "Saudi Arabia"? Do you think of deserts, camels, and oil reserves? Or think of the world's biggest market for Middle Eastern goods! In this blog article, I'll give you an overview of what Saudi imports have and their effect on global trade and the economy.

Saudi Arabia is one of the most important oil-producing countries in the world. It's also a major global importer of goods. In 2008, Saudi Arabia imported $861 billion of goods, making it the ninth-largest importer in the world. That makes Saudi Arabia one of the most important markets in the world for goods from across the Middle East and North Africa.

Some of Saudi Arabia's top imports include oil and gas products, technology, medical supplies, and automobiles. These imports have a significant impact on global trade and the economy. For example, oil exports make up about 10 percent of Saudi Arabia's GDP. Automobiles are a big part of this; they account for about 30 percent of exports. That has had a significant impact on the global automotive industry, which is struggling to adjust to new trends in the market.

Overall, Saudi Arabia's imports significantly impact global trade and the economy. They play an essential role in bringing goods from all over the world to Saudi Arabia and worldwide consumers.

What is Saudi Arabia's main import?

According to the World Bank, Saudi Arabia imports the crudest oil, followed by machinery and equipment. The country imports many other items, including foodstuffs, chemicals, textiles, and vehicles.

Saudi Arabia is one of the world's leading oil producers, and its economy heavily depends on exports. The country has also become a significant player in the global marketplace for other goods and services.

How to enter in Saudi Arabia Market with Verger Group

If you're looking to import goods into Saudi Arabia, the process has become much easier thanks to the Verger Group. By getting in touch with the Verger Group and obtaining a Saber certificate, you can streamline the import process and make it much simpler. The Saber certificate is an essential document for anyone looking to import goods into Saudi Arabia, so getting in touch with the Verger Group is a great first step.

Saudi imports the most oil

The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is the largest oil exporter in the world, and it also imports the most goods. In 2014, Saudi Arabia imported $441.5 billion of goods, accounting for nearly half of its total exports. The top five items that Saudi Arabia imported were crude oil (29 percent of total imports), petroleum products (24 percent), foodstuffs (17 percent), aircraft parts and equipment (8 percent), and vehicles (7 percent).

Saudi imports olive oil, carob, and almond oil

Saudi Arabia is one of the world's top importers of olive oil, carob, and almond oil. These three oils are used in a variety of recipes across the Middle East and around the world. Saudi imports these oils to meet its citizens' needs and provide economic stability for the country. In 2016, Saudi imports of olive oil amounted to 1.5 million tons, carob oil 1.2 million tons, and almond oil 680,000 tons. These amounts represent a 6 percent increase from 2015 levels.

The Saudi government has invested in various initiatives to promote the use of these oils domestically and internationally. For example, the Saudi Olive Council was created to help increase the production of olive oil and other agricultural products. The council works with companies and organizations to develop new recipes and sell products nationally and internationally. The Saudi Ministry of Trade also established an export promotion centre for these oils to help increase demand from foreign markets. These efforts are likely responsible for the increasing popularity of these oils in Saudi Arabia and worldwide.

Saudi imports fruit juices, raisins, and dates

According to the latest data from the Saudi Statistical Agency, Riyadh's top imports in 2016 were fruit juices, raisins, and dates. These products accounted for 30 percent of the country's total value of all exports. The second most popular item was petroleum products, which comprised 25 percent of exports. Other top exports included steel products (20 percent), chemicals (19 percent), and vehicles and parts (14 percent).

The data shows that Riyadh's main export partners are Germany (22 percent of total exports), the United States (16 percent), China (12 percent), Japan (11 percent), France (10 percent), and Italy (10 percent). The central destination countries for Saudi exports are Germany, China, the United States, Japan, France, and Italy.

Saudi imports tea

Since the 1970s, Saudi Arabia has been importing tea to meet domestic demand. The country is currently the world's sixth-largest tea importer, with total imports of 1,000 metric tons in 2013. Tea is one of the most popular import commodities for Saudi Arabia, as both the private and official sectors enjoy it.

The leading tea suppliers to Saudi Arabia are China, India, Sri Lanka, Kenya, and Turkey. India supplies around 71% of all Saudi tea imports, while China constitutes around 15%. The remaining supplier countries account for a combined 10%.

Tea production in these countries ranges from 3,000 metric tons to 6 million metric tons annually. However, due to concerns over quality and pesticide residues in some of these products, Saudi Arabia has increasingly been turning to imported teas. In 2012 alone, imported teas accounted for 46% of all tea consumed in the kingdom.

Conclusion

What does Saudi import the most? That's a question we asked our team of researchers, and they came back with some interesting findings. Surprisingly, the top two imports from Saudi Arabia are crude oil and medical devices. Saudis are big consumers of both goods, likely due to the high price of oil and the popularity of medical treatments in the country.

Saudi Arabia imported $64.5 billion worth of goods in 2017. That decreased from 2016, when the country imported $68.4 billion of goods. However, it's still impressive and shows that Saudi Arabia remains a major player in the global market.
