Hey this cute little series is on Netflix in Australia and is set in the Artic, deep in Inuit territory. I binged watched this over two days. The episodes are short so it went quickly.
This show showcases Indigenous cultures in Canada, but there is also a New Zealand Maori in there too. It’s fun. The lead actor is so easy to watch. She’s young, pretty and very clever and a good performer. It’s a slightly romantic/situational comedy and it is heart warming and interesting. It gives you a glimpse into the life up there, albeit through the lens of a TV show, which isn’t real, but the setting is full of ice and snow and hunting and Indigenous clothing and language.
I don’t want to give too much away except to say I’m so pleased a second season has been announced.
In other news, I’m off to A Regency Affair event in Exeter this weekend. I’m so excited because I totally missed signing up and managed to grab a cancellation ticket. Unfortunately it is only Saturday and Sunday so I miss exciting stuff on Friday and miss most of the workshops. However, that will teach me to pay attention next year. I had to hastily cancel other plans for the weekend and also dig up my Regency themed clothes and gather my stuff. I really want to sew something but I’ve been at this computer all day and my back is protesting.
Post birthday party, I still haven’t settled. I feel like now I’m 65 my brain as unravelled and I can’t organise myself. I have craft envy and now want to learn book binding. Sigh. There is not enough hours in the day or stamina in my mind and body to do all the things. Bugger!
