The Journey is the Destination

Do you know how Rainbow came to be? We take it for granted today, but it had to start somewhere… Ever wondered who came up with it and what was going through their mind? Well you are in luck today. 

Meet Richard, a man who was one of only 18 who came up with a concept of Rainbow all those years ago. He will tell you all about their beginning, visions and aspirations, hopes and dreams. This is the birth of Rainbow. As we are conscious of how lucky we were to meet this man from so close, it is our honour and duty to share this with you, and I hope you will enjoy what you are about to hear.

Cami is back! This time dropping her wisdom talking about music, improvisation and simply living. Listen for a dose of inspiration to start creating, letting go and enjoying the ride. Happiness is where you make it ;)

Marco is for us one of the pillars of Waiheke community where he will help anyone with any project they have in mind - imagine, whatever you would like to pursue, he is there for you with equipment and advice. One of the things I heard him say that stayed with me goes to educating people: ''A little trauma goes a long way,'' hinting at the fact that making mistakes on your own is the best way to learn. I think we all have a lot to learn from this man, and we're happy he shared those minutes of his time with us.
