Mao is a SUPER host. She went above and beyond for me. Being from the USA, I was nervous about driving on the left side of the road. She spontaneously took me on a driving lesson and especially helped me out with navigating the round-a-bout. I wish there was space to fully express the beauty of her spirit and Jett's. I never felt unwelcome approaching them or that my privacy would be intruded upon. During my stay Auckland had cyclone Gabrielle and they were prepared and helped me navigate the changes to my schedule. MUCH appreciation in my heart and many praise will come from my lips for both Mao and Jett.
