Packing the Flat, Winter Harbour Light
from New Zealand Travel Podcast with Aroha Ngata · host Aroha Ngata
Aroha spends her last full day in Auckland before the road south — a final café breakfast, a walk through Mechanics Bay in winter light, and the slow work of packing a flat into boxes. She reflects on what settling in actually costs, and what it means to leave a place you've only just begun to know. ☕ Enjoying the show?
