Hi, I'm Yvonne, a Chinese but have been living in NZ since 2001. My husband, Jan, comes from Czech Republic. We have two daughters Ellie and Aya. We love traveling. Jan also likes surfing, painting and crafting. After traveling with kids for a year and half in Europe and Asia, we are now back in NZ and become a host. It's been an incredible start to hosting Airbnb/Booking.com guests with our 'Spacious 5BR 2BA 2LR plus sleepout Family Home'. Our 'Oceanview Luxury 3BR Family Retreat' will be another great guest accommodation.
