Chapter Five, Feeling Alive! Welcome back to this wildly dramatised portrayal of what it's like thru hiking Te Araroa; the 3,000km trail of Aotearoa, New Zealand. We may or may not have watched The Secret Life of Walter Mitty on our day off. Also, you’ll notice I say 2020 many times... It was no longer 2020.
