"Start walking down from St Stephen's and take the bridge that connects you to Mission Bay. I would walk along the water, then head up the hill to Ōrākei Village and down to Parnell and around the domain. It’s a beautiful walk. It's long, but it's super lovely as you're in a city, but it doesn’t feel like it."

"Bandung has Indonesian and Malaysian cuisine. The food is amazing and it's super casual, no fuss."

"There's some nice places for lunch. There’s a wonderful Thai restaurant called Blue Elephant Thai and the Japanese restaurant down the road, Gion."

"Parnell has so many wonderful art galleries. The Black Door Gallery and Jonathan Grant Galleries are a couple that you can head to. I would sip coffee, enjoy the art."

"I'll start the day by grabbing a coffee from NSP [Non Solo Pizza] and slowly walk down to the art galleries."

"I decided to set up the Crown Range Cellar Lounge. When you're passionate, you want to share your experience. It was that simple. I had the vision of bringing the Central Otago environment into the urban setting."
