Allison and Mark made me feel at home right away :) and the setting of their family home is beautiful, glimpse of the ocean and view of Mount Taranaki which showed itself everyday :), with a drive through rolling countryside. Allison already had some property papers for me to read (I was on a trip to scout the areas as moving down to Taranaki) which was so thoughtful. They are very considerate and friendly hosts. I believe I have made two new friends.
