Kia ora koutou. Ko Holly taku ingoa. Nō Canada au. He ringatoi ahau e noho ana i Maungawhau i Tāmaki-makau-rau. I have had the great privilege to live here in Aotearoa for close to 30 years. So privileged I obviously didn’t feel the need to learn the indigenous language of this land and it’s people. Shame on me. So I have been taking night classes this year, and hope to continue on the journey of learning te Reo Maori, and hopefully be able to have a proper kōrero some day. It’s such a beautiful language, so full of grace and meaning, so much more than words and sounds, it’s deeply rooted in the people, the spirit, the stories, and the land of Aoetearoa. Pai mārire

Tena Koutou. It’s a beautiful language, and such an important part of the social and cultural fabric of Aotearoa. I am a Canadian living here for some time, but I have just recently felt that maybe this is now my forever home. Speaking and understanding Te Reo Maori would tether me more strongly to this beautiful and unique land. Kia Ora.
