Mark Shea is an Aus­tralian film­mak­er and trav­el­er who com­bines his two loves to cre­ate short trav­el­ogues of the places he vis­its.

Ear­li­er this year he was in Welling­ton, and was inspired to get a lit­tle more in depth than his usu­al style, tak­ing to the streets to ask the locals what it is they love about Welling­ton.

It’s pret­ty Cuba-cen­tric (it prob­a­bly goes with­out say­ing that there are dread­locks), but it works as a nice warm fuzzy explo­ration of Welling­ton as a refuge for peo­ple who might oth­er­wise be the local weirdo in their home­town.
