My Nana and Grand-dad migrated from Wellington to Mahia to seek a better life, leaving behind family and friends. They knew Grand-dad's brother who already lived in Mahia. In their new home, Nana joined a planting club and both enjoyed the peaceful lifestyle, finding opportunities they lacked in Wellington. Despite early challenges leaving their prior lives, they loved their new home in Mahia and planned to remain there for good.
