Two NZ Woman's Weekly stories

Still playing catch up but two of my stories are in this week's NZWW - the first a travel piece on Seville (click here to read) and the second a story on a farmer who started a pure wool blanket business from her 1700ha farm.

Cue location envy at the farm's location - 50km from the nearest city. Oh to be able to live somewhere so remote and beautiful.

     

Second Canada story

Playing catch-up after being away but my Rocky Mountaineer story from May's Adventure World famil was published in last week's Sunday Star Times (click here to read).

Thanks to the Animator for the glorious pix.

Opening night of the NZ International Film Festival

I'm shattered after the 2.00am bedtime (late flight from Canberra via Sydney) and having to show up to the part-time contract at 8.00am today, but nothing will keep me from tonight's opening event which I was lucky enough to get a media tix to again this year.

Opening the festival tonight is the gorgeous flick The First Monday in May which I have been wanting to see for a very, very long time.

Ohh and the Singapore Airlines media famil to Canberra was a blast - pics to come.

Byeee....

Tomorrow I have to wake at 4.30am, a time I very rarely see, for my flight to Sydney and then another to Canberra for a three-night Singapore Airlines media trip.

As ever, I will miss my two boys, especially this furry bundle of joy.

See you on the other side.

    

A Passage to India

My story on our Adventure World media trip to India is published in this month's North & South Magazine. Note the glorious pics from the Animator (click here to read).

My story on the second stage of this Silverstream landscape design is published on the Zones website today (click here to read).

The nicest man in Wellington

A couple of weeks back, the photographer, make-up artist and I schlepped up to Hataitai to interview a couple who had set up a foundation to test kids eyes and provide glasses where needed.

They were the loveliest people ever, plus they baked for us! As Neil the photographer said, in 25 years of snapping for women's mags, no interview subject has ever baked for him.

The story is in this week's NZ Woman's Weekly (click here to read).
