Kerry Quigley gets outdoors often with his family, 4WDing and camping as it brings them peace and calm to what is normally a busy life. His kids, now aged 7 and 3 had their first camping trips at 1 year and 8 weeks old. Kerry shares about a particularly memorable trip on a long weekend trip to the Hopkins Valley. Several families were on this trip and the weather started to turn on the last day. Kerry says "you don't need much to get out," and shares his tips for packing, gear and some of his favourite locations. As a family, they cherish making memories together and enjoy fishing on their trips.

Anurag Sharma moved to New Zealand in 2002 but didn't start tramping until moving to Wellington 16 years later. Since then, he has done all the Great Walks and recently set his sights on Te Araroa. Although it started as something he would do "one day," losing his mother was a catalyst to set a date for Te Araroa and start preparing. Anurag talks about self-discovery and the importance of trying new things and stepping outside your comfort zone, particularly as a South Asian immigrant challenging cultural norms. Despite setbacks, including an ankle cyst, surgery and changing his start date, he is excited to start walking and raise money for 10 different charities.
