    Hi everyone , we are Khen and Rami. We live a very active lifestyle in our 1000sqm little tropical jungle, near Pukekohe. An awesome vibrant little town in Franklin, New Zealand. We are very friendly and love hosting people from all around the world.

    I work in property, surf, DJ, drum, plant lover and cooks.
    Husband is in social housing sector, bee keeper, garden enthusiast, bird rescuer and many more.

    We have a kelpi x 8 year old dog. Her name is Gaia. She’s seriously, the best and easiest dog in the world. Loves hanging out with her any humans.

    We have a 6 years old sphinx cat. Her name is Manat. She’s a cat, doing cat’s things. Super (almost too much) affectionate. If you met a sphinx before, you get it - they have a beautiful temper.

    We have a tortoise, his name is Mike. He’s a young little fella and just coming out to his outdoor enclosures area.

    We have 7 chickens as well - easy maintenance and kept in their Chicken Kingdom

    We are on this platform ;

    To meet likeminded people
    To learn
    To teach
    To share our life
