Living a fulfilling life rich with tradition, connection and te ao Maori

Following on from their bestseller, Life as a Casketeer, Francis and Kaiora Tipene share how they bring the traditional values of tikanga Maori into day-to-day living, what they know about whanau, mahi and manaakitanga, and how they live a life rich with the concepts of te ao Maori

Known for their warm hearts, grace and humour, the stars of the wildly popular series The Casketeers show how the traditions of tikanga shapes their lives juggling five sons, three businesses and a television show - all while sustaining a life filled with joy and connection.
