Hilsen fra fra Maori

Today the 1st day of 1995 I am sitting at Tapotupotu bay that situated five km from the top of new Zealand. Cape Reinga it holds great significance to the Maori people. In their beliefs that when one passes away or dies, that their spirit travels to this certain place where they sit and dwells on their times spent here on earth during their life time. There the spirit departs by entering into the pacific ocean, this is known in the Maori language as te moana nui a kiwa. He travels to this mythical place known to all Polynesia as Hawaiki. This place, Hawaiki, is believed to be their mythical homeland. This place is believed in Maori mythology that all Polynesian originated from here.
I am at the moment sitting at the camp site of Mr. Charlie and Christine Neho. I have been treated with true Maori hospitality, and have been treated with the hospitality of the Maori people such as eel, kina, crayfish and wild pork. I have also been given some simple words from their language
