 Going Further
literally will take you further as we go
offshore mainland New Zealand to Great Barrier Island. (90kms from
Auckland) Great Barrier is Aotea, the historic “gateway” to Aotearoa.
Getting there is part of the journey you are on, a pilgrimage and a
week living in community, away from the world's distractions. |
