  • Welcome back for Chapter Two of this wildly dramatised portrayal of what it's like thru hiking Te Araroa; the 3,000km trail of Aotearoa, New Zealand.
    Te Reo Māori words:
    Nau mai, haere mai! = Welcome, come on in!
    Rangatira = High ranking, chiefly, noble, esteemed
    Te Tiriti O Waitangi = The Treaty of Waitangi
    Learn more about Te Tiriti O Waitangi here: • Understanding Te Tirit...
    Big thanks to Macpac for supplying the gear, and the TA trust for all the hard work to keep this trail alive!

    idk if anyone else feels this, but having had watched the PCT series a few times now, I've come to realize how much the dynamic and constant scenery/landscape changes added/affectted the storytelling in that series. It's interesting to watch the TA series and have the narrative come more from Elina that the landscape. I think it's a much richer, complex narrative than just earthp0rn.

    • @eaglesfannnn

    I watch Elina’s videos as a reminder to be in the moment when I’m on a long walk, to treat each day as a forest bath, and to wait in expectant silence for the lessons that come my way. Today’s lesson came with the quote , “ We pack for what we’re afraid of. “ I knew what that meant for me immediately . Can’t wait to let go of that fear.

    Your idiosyncratic narrative filming style gives this trek a distinctive and endearing charm. Somehow you get the experience to slip linear time and enter heart time. In other words, the presence of the eternal Here and Now. Love it. Elina! Walk on, Kiwi Lady! Love from Canada.

    Well, that was nothing short of amazing.
    “It is a dangerous business going out your door
    The sweeping heights
    And smiling eyes
    The golden for just an hour
    But with trail to step
    And open heart
    Why ever stay inside”

    Thanks for sharing this. I did an exchange student program more than 20 years ago in NZ. I lived in Gisborne with a lovely family for one year, it has changed my life and was the making of me. To this day I have always kept in touch with my NZ family and friends and I try to visit as often as I can. NZ has a special place in my heart. I have done a few long distances human powered trip (walking, cycling, kayaking) so far since I have learned about the TA I dream about it. I would love to reconnect with NZ by walking it. Now as a 40 something working mum I just need to find a way to carve out the time to do it someday. Your videos inspire me cheers.

    Sometimes life really gives you a sign. Either that, or those algorithms have become *that* good. I've been thinking about doing Te Araroa myself, too, in the not so distant future. Or, well, who am I kidding, I've actually started making plans and thinking in terms of "when" and "how", not "if". And then this series is what youtube presented me with. I've never done a thru-hike or anything else than a bit of camping on a fairly well maintained campsite, but this video series made me want to walk the whole lenght of Aotearoa even more than I did before. So inspiring! (And no, those blisters didn't turn me off, lol.)

    These films are SO good Elina - the best I've seen on the TA. I love the soundtrack, the interviews and the 'sitting' in the land ...because these moments are a big part of why I travel. I plan to do TA when I can afford to do it. I started the thought a year ago and hope I can complete the journey to the start at Cape Reinga. I know it may not be for 4/5 years. I don't know why I want to do the TA. I do know why I want to.

    Totally taken by this video. Been a fan of forest bathing, shinrin-yoku, for a few years now but was kind of conflicted about what was going on. Though I know that it truly works. .
    A couple of weeks ago read, _The Heartbeat of Trees; Embracing our ancient bond with forests and nature_, by the German author Peter Wohllenben--yet another nemophilist--just like you. He mentioned Forest Bathing quite a few times, and quoted Dr Qing Li of the Nippon Medical School in Tokyo, he wrote the book after all!
    And and now your video. Oops, pardon me, your STUNNING video. It is a keeper for sure. Thanks for all that went into making it and then posting it to CZcams.
    I am getting so much out of it. For an old coot such as myself, that is a high compliment
    In my urban setting here LA, not always easy to get into the woods, but I sure can get next to the woods--each and every day.
