UNO Issue 44
A fresh perspective
Fresh eyes. When you look at the world through them, you feel a whole lot better.
Our cover star, Jay Reeve, has been delivering fresh perspectives in his UNO column for the past year. He’s someone who jumps into things with both knees tucked up to his chest, looking to make the biggest splash and have the most fun, so this issue, as he embarks on a new phase of life, we decided to share his story from the start. Turn to page 26 to read all about it.
Lately, we’ve been looking at Tauranga’s CBD (page 56) with fresh eyes. We’re envisaging what’s ahead of the cranes and building sites – and the future looks bright. We can’t wait to see what it’ll be like in a few years, and who the expanded University of Waikato campus brings to town.
This year, we’re hoping for a year of adventure. We’ve bought one of those fancy inflatable tents without pegs or poles, so we can shoot off on Fridays after work to places we’ve never been and quickly set up camp under the stars.
On a grander scale, we recently travelled to Fiordland to walk the Hollyford Track (page 110); also in this issue, Natalie Bowie recalls her exploration of rural China (page 46), Carmen Huter takes a road trip in Australia’s Northern Territory (page 114), Carla Munro flies high over Wanaka (page 118) and Mike Rudd sails across to Kawau Island (page 122).
With the leaves changing colour and the ocean cutting up rough, autumn has well and truly arrived in the Bay. Instead of lamenting the end of the golden weather, how about we approach the new season with a sense of possibility?
