Since moving back home to Aotearoa a couple of years ago I have realised just how special Matariki is. It's a time of new beginnings and a time to reflex the past and remember those who have passed. During Matariki 2021 I looked to the stars, said a karakia to the skies above and gave thanks for a the past year and the year ahead with whānau and friends. It's been a tough year for the world. I am so grateful to be home in New Zealand and to share this special time of the year with everyone. I am looking foward to Matariki 2022 and the public holiday to mark this gift.
