Palmerston North, New Zealand
Memorable times in Palmerston North too!
Who would have thought that we'd be spending the night at a Hobbit's house!!?? Well, Steve, isn't actually a hobbit, per se, but he did play the role in the infamous Lord of the Rings film trilogy.
I'm not, actually, a big fan of these movies, but I have to admit that it was an honor to have met this gentleman! A neat experience, no doubt.
Arnaud was absolutely amazed and thrilled to be upclose and personal with our "hobbit" friend, Steve.
It was fun being able to hang out with someone who played in an actual Hollywood blockbuster, indeed, but I would have to say that it was even better getting to know the individual himself. Steve was awesome, and his family was pretty cool as well!
I, personally, really enjoyed having been able to learn about the various Maori traditions.
We had the pleasure of holding an actual Wooden Maori 21st Key, which is given to Maoris on their 21st birthday, and illustrates the family's origins through it's carvings.
Loved the time we spent together, being exposed to such passion is always fascinating!!
Si vous vous posez la question est ce que c est vraiment un "HOBBIT" dans "Le Seigneur des Anneaux"? Et bien oui, j ai eu l honneur de me faire prendre en stop et inviter chez un hobbit. C etait vraiment quelque chose de surrealiste, j arrivais pas a enlever le sourire de ma bouche, et j arrive toujours pas a y croire, il m a montre les scenes ou il etait, son fils jouait aussi, mais c etait un "Orc" un mechant!!
Quand je rentrerais, je vous montrerais si vous avez le film.
Pour ceux qui ce pose la question c est quoi le morceau de bois que tient ce jeune barbu, c est un cadeau d anniversaire, cela represente l histoire de sa famille, sa mere etant Maori, c est une tradition pour les 21 ans.
