Governors Bay Foreshore Track Walk
I’ve been wanting to start a series on the blog sharing some of nature walks that I love, in and around the city. When we moved to Christchurch, I immediately began researching all the tracks close to me to explore, and this Governors Bay Foreshore Track was one of them. So, one morning, I packed up my camera and took a drive to see what I could find.

My Vegetable Garden
Hi friends! Lets start by reconnecting as it’s been a long long time since I’ve added anything to this little online space of mine. What better way than to update you on my vegetable garden. So, shall we start with our big life change? We’ve moved cities! Immigrating is one thing, but moving cities after you’ve immigrated and been in one for 6 years is a whole different kettle of fish. Nick and I moved further down the South Island of New Zealand, to beautiful Christchurch. You may have heard of this humble city from it’s shadow of a massive M6.2 earthquake that crippled it and it’s people to their…

Lemon Honey Chia Bliss Balls
I had a moment the other day, wondering how many bliss ball recipes there must be floating around the internet these days. Quite a few I’d like to think, but what’s one more to add to the mix? They’re great to have on hand for a quick snack and to keep those blood sugars and energy levels sustained.

Detox Smoothie with Chlorella
What does Detox even mean? Itβs a term thrown around the internet so freely these days, lets get back to basics and back to what it really means to detoxify the body. This Detox Smoothie with Chlorella recipe (using the NutriBullet Balance) is a great facilitator in doing just that.
