    Hello beautiful people. Toyah here. Just wanted to give you all an update and thank you again for your support. Dan has been back to our home to help with the clean up and attempt to salvage some things. Sadly, not much can be saved. The silt from flood waters is considered dangerous/contaminated so as much as I was hoping a good dry clean might save my favourite fluffy coats, sadly we just had to let it all go. For Dan, saying goodbye to our bus has been hard. I cannot tell you the amount of work he did on the bus, in preparation for our family to live in. We are staying strong though, and trusting in the divine unfolding of this major life event.

    Thank you for helping us to rebuild. Arohanui,

    Toyah, Dan and Matai xx

    Kia ora beautiful people. I just wanted to update you all and more importantly say thank you, thank you so so much for supporting our whānau at this time. We are deeply grateful. I love reading your little messages! We are feeling so loved and held by our community right now.

    Dan, Matai and I are currently safe with whānau in Taupō as we decided to make a quick exit when we had an opportunity. However we are coming to terms with the fact that we need to return to our home and clean up / try to salvage whatever we can. The future is incredibly uncertain for us at the moment but we have a deep trust in life and know that we are going to be okay, it’s a day by day thing at the moment.

    Aroha mai ~ Aroha atu
