  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  We are a married couple who are both originally from the UK who have made NZ their home. We were keen travellers and have a good knowledge of Europe - but love to hear and learn more ourselves.
  
  We have lived in the Far North for over 7years and can share our knowledge and insights of the area and culture, including the best places to visit and beaches to walk!
