About This Novel
In 2016, my teammates and I took our three-year-old brother and half-year-old brother alone, as well as all our belongings, and set out for a country we had never been to - New Zealand. In the blink of an eye, we have lived here for eight years. New Zealand, this pure land far away from the hustle and bustle, is affectionately called "the home of the long white cloud" by the world. In Maori legend, the ancestor Kupe was sailing across the vast sea when he suddenly saw a long white cloud belt in the sky, hanging quietly on the horizon, as if it was a lighthouse guiding him from the earth. At that moment, Kupe knew that he had found a new home-? Otearoa, the land of long white clouds. I love art photography and writing. During these eight years, I used cameras and words to record our lives and what we saw and heard in New Zealand. New Zealand has beautiful scenery, clean air, and the people here are kind, friendly, and helpful. I am healed by beautiful people and things every day here. I present the beauty I felt in New Zealand to everyone in the form of pictures and words. I hope everyone will be healed by the tranquility and beauty of New Zealand after reading this book.
