things I learned on the Kepler Track – wordery blog
https://worderyblog.wordpress.com/2016/03/08/things-i-learned-on-the-kepler-track
Things I learned on the Kepler Track. On the Kepler Track, J. and I walked 50.6 km. I measured my steps, and they were 84,652. We climbed from 205m to a total height of 1400m (4600 ft), and then down again. It was 22 solid hours of walking over three days, and each day got longer as we went. It’s only three days of my life, but I really did come away feeling like it was more defining than seems logical. I learned a lot. Things I learned about tramping. People in the huts are really friendly. I kind o...

I was lucky enough to spend my Easter long weekend with some good friends from work, camping by the seaside in one of New Zealand’s beautiful national parks – Abel Tasman. It’s a land of beaches and coves and bays and greenery and unnatural warmth for the South Island – so that even at this time of year camping and swimming were viable options. I’m sure there’ll be more to come. But for now I will tell you a story. 1997 edition, to start the fire. We all. It’s satisfying to know that when something...

I think grief really changes as time passes. This week, I was eating the most delicious curry at a Sri Lankan foodstall I’ve recently discovered. Really, really delicious, and not something you can find anywhere else in this town. And I was suddenly hit with an overwhelming need to share this news with my mother, who died over ten years ago. For one moment, it was a tiny glimpse of what life would have been like if she were still around. The Sri Lankan curry incident set it all off again. I would hav...

My Christmas present to myself: two new cookbooks by two New Zealand cooks. I’m really a baker by preference, but I decided that this year I would like to get better at cooking, to take more control of the way I eat, and to eat more healthily in general. One of the really nice things about both books is that they have a whole heap of creative but simple ideas for meals and snacks right through the day – breakfast to supper. Secondly, they are also both very creative with cauliflower. An inclusive approac...

road trippin’ – wordery blog
https://worderyblog.wordpress.com/2016/05/02/road-trippin
I’ve recently changed jobs (currently on day four of the new one). I took eight days between them and drove north. These are some of the photos that might not make it onto Instagram but which I love all the same. Playing in a waterfall! Ferrying through the marlborough sounds. Crossing from south to north. The wild west coast home of poi e. Buzzing bees and kiwiana. The road to marokopa. Sliding into the sand. Luxurious north island toetoe. Sunset in raglan making a mediocre beach beautiful.

https://worderyblog.wordpress.com/2016/03/19/when-will-i-adult
When will I adult? I am going through the slightly exciting but mostly frightening process of potentially buying my first house. So far it’s going. Well… if really well means falling head over heels in love with everything that is the opposite of sensible. And yes, there’s a list now. William Makepeace Thackeray. Virginia Woolf. Mr Willoughby. Dick van Dyke. I am thinking that I will know for sure once I actually see the cat/dog/animal.). March 19, 2016. March 19, 2016. Leave a Reply Cancel reply. You ar...
