My stay at Nicky's place was in general good. Due to my poor planning I booked my stay in the same stay of checking in - so I appreciate her acceptance of my booking (I indeed tried other 2 places before Nicky's but was told like sorry we have just left Wellington so unable to host you ...) and later I realized this caused some pressure and rush for her to prepare my stay in a short time which I feel sorry. I was driving that means to some degree I didn't care much about the location. It's quiet to me and I had very good sleep and rest here although not far away from the air port (you know Wellington is a tiny city so most of the suburbs are not very far away from the airport). The second morning when I was jogging around in the morning I watched the takeoff of a JetStar in a close distance which was exciting. Nice community and townhouse. I enjoyed having breakfast in the small but lovely backyard.
Although my late booking my breakfast was provided, every morning's breakfast including plates, muesli, spread and utensils were supplied and put aside for my easy access. I even had 2 eggs for my first breakfast (and one golden kiwi and a half banana for the second). I learned how to control my weight with Nicky's quoted breakfast - I used to eat a lot for breakfast which for sure was not healthy. I was only allowed to have the reminder of a bottle of milk which expired for one day (Expiry 22/Oct) in the second morning (23/Oct) when I randomly grabbed another bottle in the fridge - this for another time proved one thing - food that has passed the best before or expiry date is still safe to eat. I also learned the implication of using hot water on power bill when Nicky stopped me using hot water when I hand washed my dishes and utensils with warm water. In one word. It's a nice stay and I learned a lot.
