Who we are

We are a couple in our early 40's. I Alex, am Irish and my partner, Runi, is Danish. We have both travelled a lot. My background is in international aid and development work education/health/social development and I am currently an independent contractor, working mainly in the health service sector, in Wellington. Runi has a background in social work. We have a cat (katrina) who is independent but very friendly (actualy totally adorable!)and will add pleasure to your stay. Luca & Kea (the dogs) will take their own holiday with relatives or friends while we are gone unless you would like to include a dog swap in the exchange.
