Proud to be Local — brought to you by CFM — is our inspirational feature, highlighting home-grown Coromandel Peninsula folks doing wonderful things out in the world.
In 1973, due to civil and religious unrest, travellers were advised to avoid areas of southern Thailand, so my travel buddy Nigel and I decided to head for Koh Samui Island.
Let’s face it – winter on the Coromandel can be brutal for skin. Salty winds, indoor heating, chilly mornings and (believe it or not) those sneaky UV rays all lead to one thing: a thirsty, stressed-out skin barrier.
Whether you’re living in the Coromandel full-time or just making the most of your bach during the sunny season, one thing’s for sure – your plumbing needs to be ready for anything!
Most locals want to protect freshwater, forests, and communities long-term, not be left with a legacy of toxic waste.
