Feb 7th

So, two Americans, three Germans, a French man, a Latvian and a kiwi walk into a lodge…


No, its not a joke, it’s my life right now. I’ve been at the Tauhara Center for about 5 days now, and am loving it. The people are so welcoming and relaxed. Catherine and Nasir (they run the place) are so sweet and take such good care of us. We’re working about 5 hours a day. And for that we are provided with free accommodation and meals (some of which are prepared by our very talented chef, Stan). I’ve mostly been in the garden everyday, weeding or planting veggies. I’ve been doing (or attempting) a bit of meditation in the beautiful sanctuary….but it’s hard. Other then hanging out here at the center, I try to get down to the beach of Lake Taupo as much as I can (its been super hot and sticky here). All in all, I am very much enjoying where I’m at right now, in place and in life.
