Goood moorning Kurt. Wanted to let you know ive spent past week and a half re-watching your Te Araroa video's and as previous thoroughly enjoyed every moment of you and Richy and then Barb fulfill your dream. Stunning my friend , the determination and stamina to keep going to the end . I could see that you were getting very tired towards the end but you kept going. Well done, I take my hat off to you. Thanks again for taking us on your journey. Cheers , SteveG

The hut there at Martins hut has had some major work done on it recently which was overdue, it's a lot better now

I hunted Merrivale and the longwoods a lot so well used to that mud but I usually stay off the main tracks.

Good evening mate , Great news about your wife..good thing to about living in New Zealand our health care wont make you 1000000s of dollars in dept,.I left Te kuiti to start the TA trail but it was closed for lambing. do so Ive just Decided to walk all over New Zealand for the next 13+ months..doing bits of the TA when I'm in the Area. At the moment I'm halfway to Stratford on the Forgotten World Highway its incredible mate. So much history to see and read. But my pack is seriously hurting my shoulders so much, trying to find a way to make it more Comfortable but nothing yet. Ive done over 133km already on tarmac lol. Hoping for nice trails but only long winding hilly roads ahead. Been doing around 27km a day just to get to a place to camp. I opted out of the hammock after night 1. I really a good lightweight tent. The packs around 15kg but probably more for this current 7-8 day walk.. I tell yah mate all my training has not prepared me for the real thing 😂. But super grateful to have the opportunity to walk freely without a time limit..

Steak and cheese is my go too

Ahh Good in you being a Pastor and you look like my last pastor just love learning more about you both

The silence at the end bought me to tears the contemplation the excitement the reflection

Well done for achieving such a huge journey , its amazing to have watched the jounrney and one day i will do this too and you and richie will be on my mind , amazing how much you have change physically and mentally through the journey we are constantly evolving even when where older we csn still learn and grow and adapt

That tiolet recently got blown of its foundations it has gotren thst windy recently , its almost always windy on that beach of ours down here in Invercargill

Riverton is a stunning place

Spirits soaring as tou get closer Walking reminds me of life , there is a beginning and a end , there is ups and downs , good days and not so good days , rough turbelant days and sunny peaceful days but its always one foot in front of the other or one day or moment at a time , its not always what we expect and soemtimes our plans change but we are still on track to finshing the good race and the memories and the realtionships that we cherish with some sadness that it comes to a end and its time for new beginnings

All that mud reminds or of stewart island NWC

Those pods are interesting but I hope its not the future housing solution fir new zealand like Honk Kong , its like human battery hen cages

So close yet so far

Amen to that 🙏

I love it in wanaka been there a lot for work this year

Binge watching whike i do some quotes for work

I do it becaue i love being away from the concrete jungle the radiowaves and in fresh air and nature i come alive i feel rejuvenation even when im exhaisted and i find peace and love a challenge and i quite often go to the south coast track past tutapere as very few go there for solitude but i also like the random people we maybe whete destined to meet

Day 110 , getting closer to finishing your series in this epic journey and I won't jump ahead but I'm looking forward to the excitement building

48 km is a big effort there richie , amaizng to watch the change in you both

Me and my son had that for days on the south coast of the stewart island and we almost got hyperthermic and lucky we come across a hunters hut , sideways fierce rain and very strong wind and got soaked through , need to reciat my expensive macpac jacket , maybe always good ti put a cheao poncho over the top too

A hard day , the hardest yet maybe and crazy setup at that base if a bit if rain stops the tenting

You look so tired , it will be so gruelling on the body and at 48 and having done the NWC with my son in January I am so inspired by your journey walking Te AraRoa and I definitely want to do it one . Just amazing the amount of ground you guys covered some days . I love my solitude when tramping so walking with others all the time would not be as satisfying for me but you can make lifelong friendships and the memories of a once in a lifetime experience are shared . God bless your every step

Where are you walking in this video... looks Ike a great spot. Im pleased all is good with your family

Hi Kurt, can you remember what date you started Tararuas? I have family on Kapiti Coast and want to try and finish at Bluff early March as you did. It will give me a rough idea of how long I can spend with family.

Been missing the percentage dance / chants

So happy your wife is OK, enjoy the family time in USA.

Good news for your wife and you Kurt. Safe travels to the US and all the best for the future. 👍 My TA start date is the 12 Oct, sound familiar? 😃

Those Kayaks you are in have terrible balance and having wieght in front makes it easily tip

Glad to hear your wife is in the clear Kurt. And i’m so looking forward to your book 👍

We have enjoyed watching all of your vlogs. Starting SOBO on Monday. Thanks for the inspo 😊

I found walking up Panekire from Onepoto a challenge, especially the undulating country on the way to the hut.

So pleased to hear that your wife is OK. The weather in the 🎉kaimais will be better early next year. Enjoy your trip and take care.

All the best for you and your wife's trip to the USA!

Geez Kurt that is great news can image what your family would have gone through. Yep starting 8 th Oct, you have been a great source of info and inspirational. I will document my journey with videos and photos not quite sure whether I will use insta ( under the same name) or RUclips will be in sections though not daily posts. 😊

That's great news, Kurt. All the very best to you and yours. I'm looking forward to your book.

So happy to hear your wife's cancer is not back I have just started to watch your Te Aroroa series and got up to the interview with you and your wife just love watching your videos I'm 48 and love tramping and look forward to completing your video series and what the future holds , God Bless

Bittersweet news about Lisa, bitter the anticipation, sweet the final results. I’ve lost 2 family members to cancer this year, 60 & 56yrs so it’s a privilege to get to your 60s, young man 😉 I might be able to help with accommodation and drop off for the N/S track if that’s helpful, wanting to do myself again but a bit quicker than your plans. Safe travels overseas 👋

Take care and best wishes for you both. Looking forward to the book release.

This track reminds em if thr NWC in on stewart insland i did in January with my son by far the hardest walk i have ever done

Thanks Kurt, I got LumaFusion and just uploaded my first video of one of my training hikes. Getting excited now, start 9 October and will post first video 7 days later as you suggested. I was hoping to upload all with WiFi but may have to look at getting a New Zealand phone just for data (have to keep using my Australian phone to look after my business). International day rate for phone and text isn’t too bad but the data is terribly expensive so I will have mobile data off the whole time.

Hi Kurt, great tip regarding shorts with a liner for washing days. I note no windproof mid or top layer, did you find your rain jacked doubled as a windproof layer?

Hey! I have been doing New Zealand hikes for a while now and was wondering which hike you recommend and or your favorite hikes you have done in the South Island! I have been doing hikes in the South Island for a while now. I really want to do a longer hike, also seeing this content is so awesome, keep up the awesome content :)

Hey there, nice video! What kind of pot cozy did you get? The thing that insulates your pot?
