I have been hosting for 20 years. My business is The Willows, a spacious holiday retreat at Kawaha Point, Rotorua. My fiancee, Lora, and I met at San Francisco Airport on 30 January 2025 and, following a whirlwind romance involving many trips between New Zealand and the USA, bought our home in Hamurana in October 2025. The property has a perfect space for short term rental use. We both love travelling, meeting people and hosting guests, so this was the ideal arrangement for the property. My interests are football, music, movies, mountain biking and travel. My two adult sons also live in Rotorua and my eldest has also provided me with three grandchildren to keep me entertained.
