Ngapuhi, Ngāti Wai
I have been lucky enough to have grown up around hunter gatherers from a young age. At the age of 7 I would go eeling by myself to bring back to my whānau. My grandfather and uncles had green fingers, I learnt a lot from them around the garden. Diving and fishing is a big part of our culture in Ngāti wai, living on the coast, it is a given to have some sort of seafood on the table. Sharing my experiences to help people with the fundamentals to self sustainability, living off the whenua and moana. My favorite quote is, “Good Better, Best Never, Rest Till Good be Better and Better be Best.”
