There’s plenty of desperation in the stories shared but there’s also, above all, a sense of tolerance and humanity. The series is hosted by a transgender journalist called Six, who was homeless for six years. We take to the streets of inner city Auckland and meet the people from Six’s world.

Extensive rural views in all directions.
This was going to be our forever home, but circumstances have changed and means we are moving to the South Island.
15 mins to Warkworth, 20 to Wellsford, 30 to Silverdale. We work on the North Shore and average a 45-50 minute commute so not as far as it looks on the map.

One beach-goer said she had never seen anything like it in 40 years of walking on the beach. The seaweed is slippery, smells salty and resembles clumps of ginger hair. One of New Zealand's top marine biologists was unable to identify the species from a photo, so the seaweed remains nameless - for now. What do you think it is? Let us know in the comments.

Burial or cremation?

The team from Auckland Funeral Services Ltd

In 1908 New Zealand's first cremation was carried out in Wellington. Since then we have seen a steady increase in its acceptance. But only over the last 20 years has it become more popular than burial.

Statistics tell us that 9/10 people who die in the next 10 years will opt for cremation.

For many people their choice to be cremated or buried comes down to a financial decision. It's important that your loved ones know what your wishes are.
Both are great options, which would you prefer?

Our job is to provide you with expert guidance, and the information you need to make informed decisions.

It doesn't need to be expensive and there are many ways we can save you money, so you can have the farewell you want; Not just the farewell you can afford.
