My blog 
Moon Over Martinborough
NetGuide Magazine 'NZ Site of the Month' - Oct 2009. My partner and I are two expat American city boys who finally stopped globetrotting and ended up on 20 acres with an olive grove in rural New Zealand. 'Moon Over Martinborough' is my little blog about living a simple yet deeply satisfying life in one of the word's most beautiful places.
