Kia ora,
wanted to start writing again. Have decided to keep my blog fairly general. There will be politics ( probably with a lefty-liberal slant….but when Labour get inevitably arrogant and start telling me how to live my life…..I will turn into a rabid libertarian), there will some travel stories (50+countries travelled through….must have some worthwhile observations to talk about), and some general thoughts about us as New Zealanders (that few will be interested in I suspect….don’t care).
My name is John
Tahuna is my village
The Piako is my river
Te Aroha is my mountain
I am a NZ pakeha of British/Viking background
I was brought up on a dairy farm and now that I’m back on a couple of acres I have found my true location on this planet.
I have been with my stunning partner, Ayesha, for 13 years and have 2 young boys
Tihei mauri ora
Enjoy….or not. Respond….or not. I’m aiming for 1 blog entry/week. Once I get a few written, I will start inviting people to view.
