David was a wonderful host, he welcomed us with all the Kiwi friendliness, the house is surrounded with flowers and we had a good bedroom. We could use David's kitchen and on the whole - we felt like at home. The neighborhood is especially nice, with little houses and gardens in a cul-de-sac, very close drive to the city center. All in all it was a very good experience staying at his place! We got the feel of a real Kiwi home and heard his stories about life in Christchurch.
