Pauanui always makes me feel free. It’s a little seaside holiday community on New Zealand’s Coromandel peninsula – characterised by a sweeping white sand beach, pink stone roads, a bush covered mountain and the sound of private airplane landing at the local airfield. I spent the weekend there with some of my favourite people (thanks to Prasnaglava for the photos).
Some of the things we got up to: walking for hours around the rocks, foraging for kai (that’s the kina we harassed up there), building a big bonfire that we toasted sandy marshmallows on and watching some classic 80’s flicks (always gotta be the 80’s movies).
We also spotted a rare moonbow. No jokes, it was phenomenal!

You make me wanna go on a little trip myself. I especially love the picture of the flower field and the stoned next to it. But of course they are all lovely. :)
I’ve never even HEARD of a moonbow. That’s so magic.
Johanna: Neither had we! We definitely pinched ourselves and wondered if we’d discovered an amazing lunar quirk. Then the next morning we overheard the locals talking about the ‘moonbow’ :) Not as drunk as we thought!
