Carnival 5: A VIEW FROM HERE

Welcome to our fifth and final edition of the Aotearoa Affair Blog Carnival, themed A VIEW FROM HERE. 

 

This edition is beautiful collection of photography, poetry, story and reports from all around New Zealand and Germany. We begin in the north of New Zealand and meander through Northland to the west coast, from big city to country meadows, and all the way to ChristChurch — and in between we scoot from Bavaria to Scotland, from Berlin to Hikurangi.

Enjoy A VIEW FROM HERE and thanks to all our contributors.
