Pictures:
 My first camp after leaving Gisborne, DOC camp site Waioeka gorge.

 While taking a photo of an amazing view, I was looking over the harbour on the hill above Opononi. I could hear the soft strum of a guitar and rhythmic humming. I looked over to find a lovely lady who after a small conversation offered to wash my clothes for me.

 Freedom camping in the Corromandel.

Tyson Head a Canadian I meet while biking through the Corromandel, we meet up again in Gisborne and again in Haste. We keep in touch on Skype and a Canadian Bike maybe in the making.
