Stick to your bubble, not your couch!
Hi all, I have just moved to Nelson at the beginning of March and, despite current times, have enjoyed my daily exercise exploring my local area, the trees especially are exceptional- all different and turning for autumn.
I am working for New Zealand Red Cross and we have set up a virtual mission challenge where you walk 71km at your own pace and within government guidelines and you can follow your progress with views of Lake Taupo! Its a great way to keep your steps up and be part of a community.
You can check out more on this link, its a suggested $25 which goes towards helping the most vulnerable in communities and is a nice way to connect and stay active during this time: www.facebook.com... or www.myvirtualmission.com...
I cant wait until we are able to explore Nelson and the surrounding areas more after lockdown, its such a lovely part of the world

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
