Arun and Veena are my new friends in Auckland. I'm travelling alone. Staying with people in their home was so much less lonely than staying in a hotel. This was my first Airbnb experience so I don't know what other places are like but I think that it is probably unusual to be offered a menu of such wonderful choices for dinner. Veena prepared delicious Indonesian food but the best part was that she sat and chatted with me while I ate. After my 14 hour flight from Houston it was so great to not have to find a restaurant and eat alone. I can't recommend their hospitality enough.
