Missing New Zealand...





Greetings from the mountains of Colorado. It's not exactly home but where the movie was shot anyway. I had put aside doing the blog for the remainder of the time I was in New Zealand. Why? Because the last thing that I wanted to be doing was sitting inside on a computer when I was in what I feel is the most beautiful country in the world. Plus after I left Oamaru I was on farms and way out in the country, so I was enveloped in that world of nature and animals.

I miss New Zealand terribly, but know that my decision to come back to this continent was the right one--for now! I am not closing any doors that's for sure. My experience in NZ was the greatest time for me and although I still have a few things to do with the movie, I am going to be making some big changes.

I highly recommend WWOOF-ing and Work Exchange to anyone who wants to learn about a country, the people and the culture. It's a wonderful way to be living there and you get to feel that you are accomplishing something by the work you are doing for the hosts. I almost can't pick out a favorite place but I will post a few photos of a couple of places and hope you enjoy them.

The movie free download is going great! There have been over 7000!!! people who have downloaded it! That is only from Mininova, and there are other sites, so probably there have been even more! I am happy about that for sure! I was hoping for more than one donation even after reading in places that it's worth the price of a movie (and I was happy to read that!) but they didn't follow through. Oh well at least I know from many of the emails I have received, that I have helped some people and that's what it's really all about!

Ok, will add a photo or two and will be back when I get the chance! Remember to follow your heart in whatever you want to do with your life and be true to yourself! Kia Ora...
