New Zealand

✨ Please read full profile before requesting to stay ✨ We live in our own home in a beautiful and safe suburb of New Plymouth. Just a minute’s walk from the beach and the iconic New Plymouth Coastal Walkway, which stretches along the waterfront to the CBD. Shops, bus stops, and the airport are all close by. One of the things we love most about living here is the uniqueness of the region – where it’s possible to surf and ski on the same day! We are a married couple with two children (one still at home). Both of us are professionals and easygoing, fun people to be around. I work as a Waste Minimisation and Education Officer (NZ Government), while my wife is a Social Work Manager for the Ministry for Children (NZ Government). Our home is shared with our pets – three cats and three dogs – so animal lovers will fit right in! We’re a busy family, so guests should feel comfortable making themselves at home. Travel is a big passion of ours, and we love learning about different cultures and meeting new people.

Having lived in South Korea and hosted over 600 surfers for13 years, I have now returned to live in Rotorua, NZ (early 2020). I'm about 10 mins by car out of the city. I will do my best to pick u up (usually from the I-site in town.) I generally don't host day before or same day requests as I often don't see them and need time to organise my busy life. I also generally don't host in the weekend - but feel free to send a request on the off chance I can... CURRENT MISSION To live and be happy... To share my life and to listen to others stories... To help people less fortunate and animals... To try and look after the environment in small ways if possible... ABOUT ME Love life. Active. Enjoy people. Love traveling. Into all kinds of music, movies, books, interesting activities... Happy to spend some time helping u out but not likely I can show u around much these days... I tend to crash earlyish and rise earlyish too... Teaching always keep me busy and a little tired but if I host you I will always make time for you... PHILOSOPHY I live to live- not to work (but work hard too). Great company is one of the finest things in life... Everything in Moderation, especially Moderation!

CURRENT MISSION Be positive ABOUT ME Friendly, adventurous, enthusiastic, musician, walker, reader, traveller, naturalist, and sometimes daydreamer. PHILOSOPHY Let It Be

Auckland. NOT AVAILABLE FOR HOSTING NOW #lookingforadventures is my motto in life. Be kind, think positively and get your good mood from simple things, then your life will be full of sunlight even on a stormy day. I love travelling, driving, singing, Exploring new lands and meeting new people. Love trying and learning everything new and interesting, walking, nature, mountains, architecture, food and so on. I am fond of collecting coins, photography and writing stories about my adventures. I love traveling by car when I can stop or turn wherever I want. P.s. I neither drink alcohol nor smoke, but can be crazy enough without it, lol. I occasionally can go to rock-bars with live bands and I am always up for anything great, new and interesting ) Mostly I prefer to go to bed early. Instagram: @travel_story28
