- Опубліковано 27 вер 2021
- Peter and Colleen Karena, have eschewed mainstream society to take up residence in a remote part of New Zealand. There, they raise their many children in a self-sustaining home. They work with horses, hunt for food and hold on tightly to their idyllic existence in the middle of the postcard-worthy landscapes that the country offers. A simple way of life that may inspire us for generations to come.

If you could put this family in a bottle, and just sprinkle the planet with a few drops... we'd have a pretty awesome world 🌎!!!❤️🙏
AMEN 🙏
Wow i couldnt have said it better myself !!!
They are divorced now so ….
Kia ora to the whanau! I’m Samoan but born in New Zealand. I’m always happy to see Maori do well.
I saw this a few years ago and was wondering how this whanau are ☺️👍 Beautiful to see this whanau stick together through thick & thin. The husband and wife are such an inspiration 💓
New Zealand is a paradise on earth.
Until you spoil it with Hobbits and Dragons
Indeed my friend, god's country.
Can't wait to go back!
I've always wanted to visit this beautiful country.
This has been so beautiful to witness this little ‘Slice’ of these folks life🙏❤️

Must be a very bad Father/Son break up to sell a 100yr old family home.
Peter isn’t Karena by blood
there are those of direct Karena descent who have ownership of the Karena home, and property.
wow, i feel like watching a movie. Very nice documentary.
The best moments ever why it’s love its family lord provide take care of them lord
The houses are so big and strong. This is a good documentary.
Beautiful beautiful family as tight and love just living that works for them that beautiful

He just jumped a horse off a cliff into the water!!! With no saddle!
I replayed that several times. Unbelievable
what a life! the horse on water omg ❤️
Great parents you guys are blessed, my family used to be the same, on dads motorbike as a kid☮️
This whanau need to do their own vidoe series supported by patrones 😁😁
Yeah it's awesome and beautiful. But, as long as they make use of external services like hospitals, they're not really self-sustaining. To keep the hospital running we need factories, farms, universities, and research centers. To keep those running we need people to work at all those places and places for all those workers to stay. And to keep all those goings... well it just keeps going.
What a wonderful life.
Love from India
Can we see more of this family ???? ❤❤❤
I hope globalism isn't going to end this lifestyle (I am self sufficient as well)
That would be amazing. Wishing you happiness and wellness😃✨✨✨✨🙌✨✨✨✨
Please give us their full story please
Where is this filmed
Beautiful happy family
👍👍👍

Arohanui bro to your Maori, Spanish whanau. ❤❤❤
On thumbnail that person on horse, resembles to CM Punk
Aroha Mai
He left his wife soon after and married a women overseas.
Source?
@@vreevroow she is single as per her facebook anything beyond that is speculation
@@ITSaPendragon Far-fetched to gossip over an account inactive since 2014.
@@vreevroow like i said anything beyond that is speculation, the doco was filmed in 2009.
Arohanui Kia koutou mo to whanau
Hmmmmmm
First👋
Were you one of the 15 that went over to try intimidate this beautiful family too!
Poverty and too many children leads to a lack of education, lack of opportunities and an unrelenting cycle of generational poverty. How selfish and irresponsible of these parents. There's nothing noble about this lifestyle.
So materialism is more valuable to you than a human life?
Education? 🤣🤣🤣 And you're here on yt?
You must be fun at parties...
They are way wealthier than you. You may have more money but you are very poor.
@Zin it’s selfish of you to view other people’s lifestyles as poverty when they see abundance and blessings and then immediately make decisions about their reproductive organs, you would have supported eugenics
That should scare you
You are soul less so this life will never make sense to you. You worship material things please stay very far away in the West where you are
We are more real down south
Exactly right. It's a grinding cycle of poverty .self inflicted . Self perpetuated
Such utter oxygen thief's .his father had to sell his home to get rid of these free loading thieves . How many years rent free did they squat in the poor father's property ???? They have zero shame
I love New Zealand. Large amounts of children has led to massive overpopulation that this planet can't support. Are most people unaware of this?
Pffft
@karen mind your own womb please. You and Bill Gates need to worry about your own miserable little snowflake ❄️ lives
WTF large amounts of children? Hahaha have you even been to NZ?
Do your part bro .get sterilized.
I agree with you @karen ...your mother should not have you...
Are this story Family Karena... are MAORI. IT LOOKS LIKE THE TITLE ARE NOT MAORI PEOPLE. PURE AN SIMPLE THEY ARE NOT MAORI DESCENDANT. MIS LED THE TITLE ARE. HIHIHI AGAIN FAKE INFO... STORY TOLD TO THEM OF OR HOW THEY LIVE IN THAT WONDERFUL LAND BEFORE THE WHITTY PEOPLE ARRIVE AND OPPRESS THE NATIVES... ITS A FACT AND REAL. WHERE IS THE NATIVE NOW... WHERE THEY LIVE NOW OF THAT LAND. ASKING ONLY
They are Maori. I'm part Maori and we're still here
they appear to be white folks(with a very wholesome quality of life) but does not appear to be of maori lineage which i assume to be brown polynesians.
Many of us Maori are halfcast. They're definitely Maori
@@badkss: you know better than i do. i will take your word for it. thanks.
Sounds like u people think we're black, unless you've met 1 of us, I'd just keep my trap shut
@@erinpaul5762 : i am sorry if i offended you in any way. there was no insult or any similar thing intended other than pure ignorance and lack of discretion in my part. i am asian myself and before the internet, all the little literature i could come by were only saying the maoris descended from the brown polynesians.
