Kiwi Tales

  • サマリー

  • Kiwi Tales podcasts and videos of Kiwis with interesting stories to tell. I really enjoy interacting with people on a one on one basis, and trying to understand what makes them tick, and how they came to be where they are in their life today. I have encountered so many people in my life that have such interesting stories to tell, and have their own unique perspective on the world, and I often find myself thinking what a shame it is we will never know their story. These people are not always those we might imagine them to be. There are people who live their life quietly without a word as to what they’ve done in their past. There are old folks who have done things in younger days that we would think impossible now. Everyone has a story to tell, and that is my goal with this little idea, to try and tell them, and in doing so to encourage, provide hope, and to inspire. Credit NZ Flag Image: vecteezy.com
