Gorgeous warm, large room
$280
Hi and thanks for considering my listing.
My house is directly on the bus route to the city (802) and easy commuting by ferry too (approx 20-30 mins). You would have your own bathroom most of the time and occassionally over holidays my son would also be back from Uni (Vic Uni - Wellington), otherwise it is just me.
The house is in a very nice development and is a new build, so it is warm and dry. The bedroom available is very spacioius and quiet and the development and area are extremely safe and super easy to access via public transport. I have really friendly neighbours and because it is a development - it always feels like there are lots of people around, yet at the same time, it is very peaceful and quite.
I have hosted students from China, Germany, Italy, Russia and India before.
Most of my previous homestays have been school students but I have also had two uni students stay.
I have a son who is also studying but he is at Vic University in Wellington so it will just be me and you in the house and he would occassionally stay over the holidays. For this reason, a slightly more independent Uni Student would be best so ideally you would value and be looking for a quiet, calm and welcoming home to live and study in.
As I have had many students stay, I understand what it is like to be living away from home in strange surroundings, so while it is not staying with a family, you will stay in a safe, happy and welcoming home and a super safe and beautiful neighbourhood. And Daily Bread is on the corner in front of the bus stops (to the City, Takapuna and the Ferry Terminal in Bayswater)!!
I would consider a budget of $250-$280 depending on preferred room (no meals provided) $380 (1 meal plus breakfast and lunch supplies to make your own).
I am open to having a homestay from now until the end of the University Year or short term.
I look forward to hearing from you and answering any of your questions.
