I stayed in Sunder's place for two and half months and it was a memorable experience. Sunder and his family made me feel like a member of their family. If anyone is looking for a home away from home, this is the best place in Auckland. Their home is in a great spot with couple of minute walk to waterfront. there is a direct bus that will take you to the city centre. supermarkets and take aways are walking distance from their house. Sunder's wife is an awesome cook and if you are looking for traditional south Indian food, she can cook this cuisine better than any indian restaurant. I have travelled all over the world and I would rate my stay with them the as the best experience in my travels.
