I wasn't able to stay at Kim's place due to all the roads into Picton being closed. I was actually booked to take the train up from Christchurch, but the train was cancelled due to the tracks also being under water or dangerous in places.
What I do know is that Kim was super helpful in resolving my inability to stay. Her help was greatly appreciated and welcomed.
I'm sure Kim's place is absolutely great and hope to stay there one day soon.
