Beschreibung
We are an Irish couple who arrived in New Zealand with a back pack and tourist visa. Now 16 years later we have our dream home close to the beach with three gorgeous kids . We are both well traveled back-packers when we were in our twenties. We are quite sociable and love to live kiwi style beach and BBQ's etc.... Our interests are surfing, kayaking, cycling, travelling, photography, listening to music and spending plenty of time out doors.
We live on the Northshore of Auckland, a great location to be based to either hang out or go gallivanting to all the amazing places Auckland has to offer! All amenities are within 5 minutes walk from our house- beach, boardwalk, shops, cafes, restaurants, bus stop to Auckland. Activities-coastal walking trails, reserves ,water activities-kayaking, stand-up paddle boarding etc -
