I remember as a child listening to the sea inside a shell. I thought it was the most amazing thing being able to hear the sea even when I wasn’t there…I never grew up by the sea but our visits to Maketu and Taranaki were always times of anticipation and excitement. To smell the fresh salty air and to feel the ocean breeze was always a real buzz for me – a reconnection to home, a reconnection to Tangaroa…

So I’ve lived beside the sea for over 10 years now, in the west and now in the east and I treasure every day that I can be with Tangaroa and to experience his many wonderful gifts…
Arohanui,
