We have been living in Hawkes Bay for well over a month now. I don’t know where that month has gone, it is a blur of wallpaper and doctors appointments. But we are so glad we made the move. I really have fallen in love with this place. Although there will always be a place for Auckland in our hearts, it is hard to go past the lifestyle, the pace of life, the amazing produce and the large skies.Although I come from the great north, with all its beauty, its beaches and bohemian lifestyle. Hawkes Bay does really feel a little like home. The crisp morning and dry summers. The steep ranges and long plains. The underlying hue of gold that encompasses everything.
Yep, I am a fan.
Yep, I am a fan.
Until next time.
I’m South African and my husband is from Hawkes Bay, it took me a while to settle in, it took about a year to really find myself here but now I am really happy here. Ocean beach is awesome! Gotta love it
I enjoy your blog and your styling! I’m heading to the Hawke’s Bay in the weekend (for the first time) and was wondering if you could recommend any must see/do activities, places or eateries?
Of course! F.G.Smiths, Mister D’s, Opera Kitchen, Pipi’s Pizza are all delicious. Head up Te Mata Peak at sunset for the best views. The Farmers Market in Hastings on Sunday are a must go/see/eat ….Hope that helps and you have an amazing time!! x
Thanks so much! Appreciate it :)
