Takaka, Golden Bay.
I came to visit my perants on their new B&B/orchard, and liked it so much, enjoyed swimming in the crystal waters off golden beaches, walking the National Parks, Kayaking along the coast and feasting on my mothers fine cooking, that I'm still here. Surrounded by some of NZ's best communes, and hippy culture, theres been a continuious array of unusual.
To make money I've been pouring beers in a DB local pub, mostly to fishermen, rugby players etc a true array of REAL kiwis, who's conversation never failed to surprize me. Its been grand.
But the weathers changing, rather then buy myself a winter jumper, I might just wander off again, India by June
ahhhhh
