The Earth Oven: Hangi

Solo travel stories

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed or email alerts in the upper right hand corner. Thanks for visiting!

Last year while I was touring around the south island of New Zealand on my own, I had an opportunity to attend a Hangi – this is a traditional way of cooking food in a covered pit using hot rocks… derived from the wonderful Maori culture – a culture I am quite fond of and fascinated by.

For detailed instruction on how to prepare a hangi, click here

If you are a newbie to Maori culture, there is an amazing book called Whale Rider - it was also made into a movie. It is a wonderful story about a young girl finding her place in Maori culture in a modern time.

Have you been to New Zealand? Please share your experiences! If you haven’t been, it is an amazing place to visit. I will be writing more about it soon….

Until next time,
L

  • THE ORIGINAL "WHY" of Solo Traveler is covered in The Back-Story. The "Why" Continue" is because most of what's out there for solo travelers is not about us but about those making money from us. I want Solo Traveler to provide valuable information and continual inspiration to everyone who is passionate about solo travel. New posts every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. Please let us know what you need.
