Inspiration




One little man decided to build a train into the coromandel mountains to collect clay for his pottery. He was the first ever fulltime potter in NZ. People started asking for rides. Over the next 30 years he finished building the railway. This summer alone he had 400 000 people ride his little handmade train (more than ride the National railways - and probably more punctual service). He is now filthy rich and with the rest he has planted 15 000 Kauri trees which he will then donate to us, the general public, when he dies. The train ride was awesome through the forest, up the mountain - with stunning views up there. Imagine each one of us could live our little dream...
