Pakuranga is an Eastern Auckland residential enclave favoured by Chinese migrants. 

The 3-bedroom 2-bath, 2-storey semi-detached house is clean, neat with a well equipped kitchen. Rental is NZ$180 per night. 

It is fortunate that my airbnb loding is not next to the main road and so I do not hear the vehicle traffic noise in this dining area. This is a mixed development with 2 retail shops in the centre. 

A new experience as the previous airbnb house rent was in a quiet far away from the road one-story house with 3 bedrooms in a residential area in Mt Maungauni. 

An earlier airbnb house I rented was a new 2-storey house in the hills near Napier where I saw the beautiful pink dawn. All 3 airbnb house environments are so different and enriches my travel experiences. 
 
Thursday is the day when shopping malls close later than the usual 6 pm closing. It is the day when residents have to put out the trash bins by the road-side for the garbage truck. 

The mulitiplug adaptor is necessary. Bring more than 2 in case of malfunction.
