Mikaele M. Taufa
Thatching for 44 years in Christchurch
- 🇳🇿 Christchurch, Canterbury, New Zealand
- The Highland Shop
- Since 1982
- English
I've worked in thatching since 1982. I learned from my older brother and passed what I could on to 2,330 apprentices.
I can still tell good work from rushed work from across the street. I paint watercolors of whatever is outside the window.
More about Mikaele
Some of my old apprentices now run their own shops. I couldn't be prouder.
Crafts and trades
What gifts mean to Mikaele: I'd put gifts toward a new set of tools for the next apprentice.
