In every major city across the world, you will find a number of poor people without a home to call their own. Mick Myers was one of these unfortunate individuals, living the solitary life of a hobo around the East Bay of California for 30 years. However, following a candid conversation in 2017, a local cop soon set in motion events which would bring it all back home for Myers. Remarkably, after three decades of tramping the streets, the 67-year-old was set on a new path that would lead him to discover the truth about his past.

Myers knew that had been adopted as a two-year-old infant, growing up in San Leandro, CA. He was once part of his high school’s marching band, but he found that he was not in tune with his adoptive family. Indeed, life at home was very difficult. Myers went without affection from his siblings, despite the best efforts of their loving mother.

Sadly, when his adoptive parents passed away, the rest of the family turned their backs on Myers and cut all ties. Similarly, the California native lost contact with his childhood friends. While he eventually found work as a truck driver, Myers was all alone, and sadly his isolation and general situation continued to worsen in the following years.

Here in the land of beauty and contrasts New Zealand.

Who would ever believe that this could exist in a country where Kiwis are noted for their kindness and

joie de vivre

How,is this possible?

Something changed in New Zealand.

the worse for wear

​

Tired or in poor condition because of a lot of work or use:

After a month of journeying over rough roads, the homeless and their trolleys with all their belongings were looking the worse for wear.

The images posted here tell a story and with a little quirky touch.

The homeless love the banks.Not difficult to work that one out.

They are featured here at the ANZ ATM in Manner Street Wellington. Along the road at the BNZ ATM we did see some signs of new tenants moving in.

It would be hilarious if it was not sad.We do not identify them and we are not there to harrass them.They are victims and do not need to be persecuted by us.Rather we bring this to your attention in the hope that the Government and the authorities resolve this situation.As for the individual you may not wish to contribute but a smile or a kind look costs nothing.
