Fishing, Diving, Gardening

On most occasion's I would travel to the Manawatu to catch up with friends to go fishing the beach at Tangimoana, Foxton. Most occasions I would be diving the south east coast of the north island, where we would be fishing, netting and diving for crayfish, paua and Kina. The whole part is being there amongst our beautiful environment and Whanau and friends.

As for gardening, there's a benefit in growing your own vegetables and fruit, its something that has been taught to me as a young child of 8 years old.
