WW: Solace in the Wind Statue


Wellington is indeed filled with unique, aesthetic works of arts.

One of the famous statues that becomes sort of the chosen, favourite one of this windy city, is Solace in the wind

This statue of a naked man, artistically made,  overlooking the Wellington Harbour certainly attracts people’s attention as it strikes this particular pose and show a vivid emotion of longing. In my interpretation, I can somehow feel his agony, like he’s planning to dive to the water and swim further, leaving this beautiful land of Aotearoa.


what do you have in mind, Solace?





The creator of this statue, Max Patte , was planning to leave New Zealand when he created this piece. Selected as the People's Choice Award for the favourite sculpture in the city, Solace in the wind truly deserves it. Wellington Harbour amazing view certainly boost the ambience in which this sculpture is installed.

I keep coming to this very spot as it is strategically located near Te Pa Pa Museum and the colorful Wellington sign. Many tourists have certainly flocked in this area as well.


Well, I will come back and share more stories about Wellington, the coolest little capital in the world, including its amazing art.


Solace and I said hi...

WW: Enjoying Lunch at Beach House and Kiosk at Taputeranga, New Zealand

Welcome to Taputeranga Bay, New Zealand


Wellington has been a bit of a mixed lately in terms of weather.

It’s cold in general but we do have sunny days in this winter time. Most of the times, the temperature is between 14 - 8 deegres Celcius, with rain or strong wind.

One of the best ways of enjoying this heartwarming weather is by going out. So in one of those days, I went out enjoying lunch at the Beach House and Kiosk at Taputeranga, New Zealand.


The Beach House and Kiosk is located next to Dive Wellington and pretty much in front of the Taputeranga Bay. During the wonderful sunny day, we can see the Kaikoura mountain in the South island, with its snowy peak. Breathtaking indeed!


These are some photos I took around the cafe and its surroundings.
I really love the ambiance and the food is lovely as well. I have my egg benedict with smoked samon and it was delicious.








Join us on (almost) Wordless Wednesday and have fun with the link party.



Wonderful Wednesday with My Purple World, My Heartsie Girls and Friends

Yellow!

It's been a lovely week here in Wellington although we do have some drizzling days. Again, the temperatures have dropped and I kept cooking at home to feed our rumbling tummies and to keep the house warm as well. 

I have been meeting many more counterparts again and lives have been super busy indeed. Well, as expected, once the COVD-19 protocol is a bit more lenient, we will then have more face to face meetings. 


these grilled scallops are soo yummy!


So, my week has been filled with many working lunches and courtesy calls again. And Wellington is indeed a great place for a foodie or those who are adventurous when it comes to food. Let's see some of the delectable plates I have here!


date cake, toffee sauce and ginger gelato!


Fresh oysters from Bluff, NZ


For sure, I will share more of my culinary adventures here in NZ on the next posts!
