Excited to celebrate your Tinder success story @gabbydegagne ❤️💍 And looking forward to more adventures in the hills with you!
Wooly garden and mum!🐑
Back to the playful, rooty trails of Te Waipounamu, the South Island of NZ.
I squeezed in a ride with a good friend on an old familiar trail last Friday arvo ❤️ It was mental health awareness week. The theme this year… Take time to kōrero - a little chat can go a long way.
Progress. DOC hut vibes. The end is finally in sight! My fave part begins… putting thought into interior design and making sure there’s some funky stuff going on!
Oh hello there, old friend! Yesterday I was reaquainted with a nutcracker for the first time since I was about 7yrs old at Temple Basin!
Oh, New Zealand! And this isn't even off the beaten path. Spot the highway below.
So happy to be out of lockdown today! Lets just say that 30+ days of solo isolation time has reinforced how social I am and how most things are just so much more fun with some company!!
Two Martig’s in the mountains ❤️ I feel so grateful that my Dad and I share such a deep love for the outdoors.
Finally left the shady valley for some Bealey Spur wanderings. Enjoying the slightly longer leash of level 3 but it’s pretty wild to see how little snow we have in early September.
Winter, where are yoouuuu?!
The Double Life, by Don Blanding ❤️ I’ve shared this a few times in different places but here it is again! I love it. Who else relates?
Lockdown viewing tip if you’re wishing you were out in the mountains!
Level 4 lockdown 2.0 begins…what a ride 2020/21 has been. I am SO grateful to be where I am, to have this magical backyard, to be from a country where we take peace and amazing leadership for granted.
Back in the motherland, Te Waipounamu. I love this place so damn much! After a very unsettling few months, it feels even better to be home, tucked away in our little island full of magic ❤️ So many new beginnings, my heart is full of a deep happiness and contentment and a quiet lingering sadness at the same time. I’m excited to be properly reacquainted with the beech forest, piwakawaka, kea and Ka Tiritiri o te Moana.
Today’s haul 😍
Summers in Alaska may be bloody short but they’re epic! Everything’s in a rush… the people, the flowers, the animals. Soaking in the rays, growing as much as possible before the days get darker, packing as many summer adventures in before the snow returns. There’s a sort of hectic vibe that we don’t have in NZ. Not better, not worse…just different.
I can't help but smile thinking of the incredible line up of Wahine Toa on the @thenzteam in Tokyo this year! Our women have been absolutely CRUSHING! Out of 7 gold medals so far, 6 are from women. A couple of moments from our wahine ❤️
🍃A place where green spills down to the ocean and the forest is full of lovely mossy undergrowth and ferns.
Hey there, mumma sea otter! Sea kayaking friends from our trip a few weeks ago ❤️
