If you would like to send me a telegram to keep me abreast of global non-tramping related developments, or save me (or you) from the consequences of me spending too much time inside my own head, here are some options. 

If sending such a missive please mark it with ‘Te Araroa’ and the expected arrival dates listed below, and let me know it is coming so I know to ask for it. The dates are a bit earlier than I expect to get there just in case things change.
