Month in Golden Bay
At our first Wwoof in Golden Bay we built a waterfall and pools in the host's 'Goddess Garden.' This one acre plot of land was located just outside of the hip town of Takaka.
Our next stop became a long respite for us: lovely Shambala. Overlooking the water with access to the beach, we watched both the full moon and the sun rise (above). And am meditation, nightly yoga in our beautiful hall completed paradise for us. We spent our efforts and gave our love to mosaics on the Hall roof (below).
Tomo, our new friend at Shambala with his Clifford Sailboat. She held her own in fairly rough seas.
Seals came to low tide pools at Wharariki Beach, our favorite spot on Farewell Spit.
I saw these sand formations and thought of Trees of Life.
Sunset on our first night at Adrift with Adrian and Pat. This is our view from the deck.
Again at Wharariki but with a light rain...still incredibly beautiful and special.

Hi, my name's Deena and I'm a Columbia University graduate student of journalism and freelance reporter who is writing an article on WWOOF. I came across your blog and was wondering if you have some photos of your farming experience that I could use for my article? Please email me as soon as possible: dg2190@columbia.edu
uff, lovely people, just looked back at months of your beautiful pictures. what miraculous places you've been loving and living in. it's enough to make me quit my job, home and city and go play in beautiful places for awhile. oh wait, i'm doing that - count down is a month. most likely will be in new england for the summer, farming, playing and hiking. maybe a quick trip abroad to some kind of paradise as well. can't wait.
much love chickpeas - your travels look amazing. :)

Conor, Tricie, your blog continues to inspire! I'm so happy you finally made it to Golden Bay and Abel Tasman, I have such fond memories of that area. Sounds like an incredible trip, though of course there are always obstacles and challenges to overcome as well. My love to you,
John
