A Closing Karakia

Written By Ryan and Lauren

Our last goodbyes have been said. The murmurs of our laughs and celebrations and banter have faded into the surroundings. And the world has continued to turn even as most of us flew half a world away to return to the strange world of familiar things. The story of our journey together has ended. As we re-enter spaces of individual living and storytelling, we’ll each find ways to make sense of what we’ve experienced to ourselves and to others — take up the final and most difficult challenge of the adventure: giving it meaning.

But before that, a thank you. It’s been a truly transformative time made so by the contribution of each and every person in our community. We’ll hold memories of this time together dearly. Big skies friends.
