New home in Kaitaia (northland)

I now am 5 hours drive north of Auckland. Constant and gusty winds. I will have no trees in which to hang my hammock during my 3 night hike to the lighthouse. I recently watched an interesting youtube video "the story of stuff" i urge you all to watch it and let me know what you think (its about 15 minutes but well worth your time) The camper seen here is where i have been for the past 4 nights. I find great reward in minimalistic living. "may my heart always be open to little birds who are the secrets of living whatever they sing is better than to know ... may my mind stroll about hungry and fearless and thirsty and supple" _e.e. cummings
