Cathedral Cove

I think I can call Coromandel my favourite place on the North Island :)

A few wise words from the Coromandel

This is the shed that belongs to the house where I live at the moment. I like it.

Coromandel: Paradise

I got rid of my job in Auckland (or the job got rid of me whatever you prefer). Found a wwoof place in Coromandel. Stay with the sweetest horey in Coromandel Town. Get to see the whole peninsula while checking roadworks. I take about 100 photo's a day, so here is a small collection. Enjoy it like I do!

A day on Piha

Today I went to Piha, one of best west coast beaches on the north island.

First of all I went for a run, which was hard because my feet sunk deep into the sand all the time (good training for Tongariro Crossing though!). This is why I look so troubled.Then I went for a climb up Lion Rock. You gotta love it!

Well worth it, climbing up there gave an nice viewThen I did some tramping and found a nice place for my siestaAnd I finished the day with a:The best beer in New Zealand :D

Auckland

Two more weeks of work ahead so for now just a picture. This is the view from our kitchen window. Since we live all the way out west on the top of a hill we have Auckland all stretched out in front of us. I think it's pretty mean bro!

When I finish work I am off to Coromandel and Tongariro (Mordor!). I am not sure in which order yet, but I look forward to it.
