About The Hacks.

Kia ora!

We’re Tyrone, Nicola and Tāwhiri Hack; a small family living in Auckland, New Zealand. We started this blog to document our journey as we strive to live a happy, healthy and conscious life.

We enjoy learning about a range of topics and try to keep our minds as open as possible to a wide range of ideas. There is few greater topics to learn about than what would make yourself and others happy and healthy. Our experience at University taught us that writing can be useful for consolidating and articulating ideas and reasoning. Our hope is that this blog will provide a platform that will help facilitate this learning process, while at the same time giving others an opportunity to learn from and test our ideas.

As a start, we are focussing on the information we have learned about nutrition. This is because diet is a measurable and trackable change that someone can make in their life that can have a great impact to other areas. We’re not nutritionists however we do our best to think deeply and objectively about how we fuel ourselves. We will try to include opposing arguments and evidence where possible. Our posts should be viewed as an open discussion and perhaps a starting point for you to start your own journey to finding out what you think.

We eat a plant based diet for the planet, the animals and our health. The first ‘stage’ of this blog is our attempt to distill the information we have collected about nutrition and to make it more accessible for the general public.

We hope that you get value from our work. Follow us on instagram and say hi!
