From BIGTONES Christchurch, New Zealand Mar 3 Positive Kristen is considerate and has done some cool stuff, we had a great night out on the town...maybe do it again soon, cheers.
From Bobby San Francisco, United States Jul 25, 2007 Positive Kristen was the first kiwi I got to actually spend time with. It wasn't until I met others that i realized they weren't all like her (and thats a compliment to her by the way). Kristen added that little bit of spice to life that made it much more enjoyable. Can't wait to see her again (at burning man maybe?)
From OMG_IT'S_JULIE!!! San Francisco, United States Jul 21, 2007 Positive Kristen makes me laugh like nobody else can!!!!! She is wicked cool and I'm so glad to have lived with her in Nelson for more than a month!!!! Great camping adventure, awesome food, amazing laugh. She ROCKS :D I can't wait to see you again!!!!
From Hillary Murray Menlo Park, United States Jun 27, 2007 Positive Kristin is a delightful human. I had the pleasure of living with her for a number of months.. and well, I miss her bunches! She just might have the sweetest demeanor I have ever come across. In fact, I don't think she has any flaws! Unless you count overconsumption of Marmite?! She's done so many nice things for me (and the rest of the group) it'll be hard to repay her. No doubt, She's one of NZs finest... And I can't wait to see her on this side of the pacific. Love you Kristin!
From Jan Halliday Warkworth, New Zealand Jun 26, 2007 Positive I'm completely biased of course as she is my beloved daughter, but I can also see her for the special person she is - intelligent, funny, accepting, strong, brave, compassionate .... She is great to spend time with, is a great conversationist - that includes being able to listen!, and is versatile - full of surprises.
From Casey Fenton Homer, United States Jun 16, 2007 Positive CS loves Kristin. She's responsible for making our ultra-cool new and improved front page. I love Kristin not only for her great work, but, for perhaps fifty other reasons (52 including her accent and giggle!) I'm so glad I had the opportunity to live with her at the CSCNZ. It is just a fact: She is top notch. She's also super generous... post-collective she hosted us for several days in Auckland just as we were leaving NZ. I'm thankful that she was the one to deliver us to the airport, one of the last memories from an awesome stay in NZ.. it was like icing on the cake. Kristin, I can't wait for the adventures to continue when you come stateside this summer for BM!
From ShAi* Mumbai, India Jun 8, 2007 Positive I think Kristen is a wonderful, warm and genuine person, who has a great mix of party gal and friend ..it was great to meet her :)
From KEITHWANDERS Atlanta, United States Jun 8, 2007 Positive I just love her, I hope we stay friends for a long long time.
From VIAJEN London, United Kingdom May 27, 2007 Positive Kristen is a fantastic girl! We had a great time together in Nelson (mission accomplished) and she later showed me all around her hometown of Auckland. Kristen has lots of great business ideas and I can't wait to hang out with her in London this year.
From the rachel Berkeley, United States May 15, 2007 Positive Kristen has a dear heart. I saw a quieter side of her for the most part, but that wicked giggle belies something brewing underneath the surface. She had a habit of pinching my tobacco here & there, but she asked in such a sweet way, how could I resist? She also did me the gigantic favor of transporting some of my things while I was off traveling Australia. I wish I had been able to see her again before I left. I hope I get to see her again in the future.
From Anne Dougherty Dunedin, New Zealand May 14, 2007 Positive Kirsten and Jim Stone stayed with us at short notice. They were great fun and easy guests.
From Andrew Mcgregor Christchurch, New Zealand Apr 10, 2007 Positive kristen is real cool, real positive and choice to hang out with.had fun with you guys at wild foods, was a wicked party!!

From Joel Pauling Wellington, New Zealand Apr 8, 2007 Positive Kristen seems like a switched on clued up person. Would love to meet up again when both of us are not so rushed.
From Heather O'Brien San Francisco, United States Apr 1, 2007 Positive Kristen is amazing! I love her energy, her fantastic sense of humor (she has me laughing non-stop!), her ability to just get things done, her swimming prowess, and her warm heart. I want a pocket-sized Kristen I can take home with me and put next to my alarm clock so that when I wake up in the morning I get a little giggle, because, hey, there's a pocket sized Kristen right there.
From Joshua Adair Austin, United States Mar 27, 2007 Positive Kristen a hip, hip lady.
From Glenn Thomas Nelson, New Zealand Mar 25, 2007 Positive I like Kristen, she a Kiwi...
From Eric Wootton Prescott, United States Mar 17, 2007 Positive Kristen has a great smile and sense of humor. Definately my favorite Kiwi to date.
From HungrySteve Portland, United States Mar 1, 2007 Positive Kristen loves to party! She is a wild child and is always having fun. She just knows exactly how to have a good time and if you know how, why would you do anything else? She is sweet!
From Mattthew Brauer Berkeley, United States Feb 6, 2007 Positive I wish I could mass produce her and make sure every party in America had one. She's witty, sweet, foxy, clever, athletic, assiduous and sincere. She's no less than my favorite Kiwi.
From STAMP Hunker, United States Feb 3, 2007 Positive Get back to you on this...
From Kirsty Sarah Christchurch, New Zealand Jan 22, 2007 Positive First and foremost Kristen is COOL. Such an easy going, natural person. 100% real and so chilled out. An absolute pleasure to be around. I look forward to meeting her again.
From FLYINGFILL Queenstown, New Zealand Jan 14, 2007 Positive Happy socialble person who says what she thinks honestly likes wine and looks good in leopard skin pants :)
From RICHNCOL Christchurch, New Zealand Jan 14, 2007 Positive Another fun night around the dinner table - come again soon
From Kris Wilson Picton, New Zealand Dec 23, 2006 Positive We were the Kiwis in the house that were looking after all the internationals in Nelson. We got involved in some pretty amazing parties, but I will never forget your reaction after you dropped yogurt on the floor. So calm as if nothing wrong ever had happenned.
From Gardner Bickford Nederland, United States Dec 12, 2006 Positive Kristen is always happy and we had some great conversations at the NZ Collective!
From Zohar Bar-Yehuda Tel Aviv-Yafo, Israel Sep 12, 2006 Positive She might be 38, but her spirit and looks are of a 28! Stayed with Kristen in Auckland for 2 nights. She's a really interesting and fun person, and we had long hours of chatting through the night. Wish I had more time to spend with her...
It was a really nice way to end my trip before flying home.
Remember Kristen, you have to come to Israel to claim your bottle of wine ;) |
