Te Araroa: Cathy's Pies

Send us a textThe Blissful Hiker is back on New Zealand's Te Araroa walking through the Waikato Region in the center of the North Island. She learns to face her fear – as well as ambivalence and irritation – and muscle through the bad parts so she can be open to surprise. In this episode: Blissful skips a trail detour and starts her hike in muddy wetlands and electric-fenced pastureland.She arranges for a whole group to camp at Cathy's Pies and learns that whatever answers she's looking for on the trail, is likely already inside her. Her hiking friends share many of her same feelings about the trail and remind her this is all building "character." Once she moves past fear and gets her rhythm, she camps alone high up in the Hakarimata Range with an incredible sunset and a morepork (owl) for company. MUSIC: Introduccion y allegro by Carlos Guastavino as played by Alison Young, flute and Vicki Seldon, pianoavailable on iTunesKULA CLOTH "pee rag"!
