Ventured to some loved ones around the South Island. Feeling so grateful to witness these marvellous lives all twisting and turning in such wonderful directions 😉🌊

Last time I was standing in greymouth I was a lil pip with my grandma and uncle John. Uncle John (the funniest oldie) gave me a golden nugget and told me that real gold is found in the heart. Now that I’m not 7 I know what he means.

Claire bear has just finished a film, Whakaoratia te Waitaha. Really important information for the future of an entire ecosystem. @tewaitaha

Living the seasonal life is an epic way to live, but it also comes with its challenges. The lack of stability and comfort. You can’t bring your comfy bed with you, or all the things you hang on your wall to make you feel at home. Mums not just down the road to cook you dinner and give you a hug. Fortunately I have an amazing support crew. Those at home who encourage me to keep exploring my passions and curiosity, and those out here venturing along side me. People who choose adventure over safety, experience over money. Seeking discomfort and coming out the other end stronger each time! Really grateful for all you guys ❤️

This will be my final post about my ski season for a while, as I’m excited to share some of my more recent adventures!!! I just want to take a moment to express my gratitude to every incredible person I had the privilege of meeting while working at Remarks.

I used the full 20 pages for this post, but I still didn’t include half of the photos I could have—just a small reflection of how amazing this season was. Through teaching, I had the opportunity to work alongside and connect with some of the most lovely people. Life often feels like a series of comings and goings, especially with the way I’ve chosen to live, and that can sometimes be a bit sad. But when I look at these photos, how could I possibly feel anything but gratitude? I was fortunate enough to share time and space with some truly wonderful humans.

As much as I love traveling and the beautiful places it takes me, it’s the people who make the adventure worthwhile. That’s why I tend to stay in places longer and don’t rush through my travels. My time living and working in New Zealand has been nothing short of epic, and it wouldn’t have been the same without all of you.

Ski towns are often known for their party atmosphere, with people from all over the world coming together for a season. But from the start, I was eager to build a community outside of that scene. We kicked off the season with potluck dinners, and hosted about five of them at various homes. These evenings were some of the highlights of my season—sharing good food and great company out of our instructor gear. Thank you all for creating such a warm, welcoming little family.

I miss you all so much and hope everyone’s northern hemi ski seasons are off to a fantastic start (I AM SO JEALOUS) I can’t wait to see you all again, wherever and whenever that may be. As always, if any of you find yourselves in the same place as me, you are always welcome at mine. ❤️

Feeling so thankful for this time, and for this life.

If you’d asked me what I thought I’d be doing in New Zealand, teaching snowboarding wouldn’t have even been on the list. I spent the first few weeks exploring Queenstown, trying to figure out what kind of work I would do. With a degree in tourism, I knew the area had plenty of options!! At the absolute last minute I ended up stepping into the world of NZSki snowboard instructing - & my gosh am I ever thankful.

Once again I struck gold with a group of 15 other rookie snowboard instructors who were an absolute joy to learn alongside. Those two weeks of training with you all were truly legendary. We also formed an amazing crew to grow and train with throughout the season as we worked toward other certifications. Even though only a few of us ended up at Remarks, I loved popping over to Coronet to see your beautiful faces – it really felt like I had friends everywhere!

A huge shoutout to Dave Pearce for creating such an incredible learning environment. A crew is nothing without an epic leader! Thank you to everyone who offered advice during lunch, helped me out on the hill, and shared their knowledge with me throughout the season. New Zealand is such an incredible place to do your certifications - it is one of the few places with an opposite season to the Northern Hemisphere so I got to teach alongside some truly talented people.

I’ve worked in mountain towns and done more seasons than I can count, but teaching has finally made me feel like I’ve found it. More instructing posts to come – what an unforgettable way to spend the season! 🏂
