RAD make the most incredible coffee. I love going in by myself and getting my 'usual' there which is a coffee and an omelette. I also love reading so an added bonus is that they've always got the paper.

They aren't your typical white sand and blue water beaches but I love how they're a bit more secluded. Plus, they've got Pohutakawa trees and tyre swings which is a little taste of NZ. Bliss.

My friends and I love going Ponsonby Central. It's near where we live and we can never make up our minds on what to eat so we just roam around there until we find somewhere that isn't ridiculously packed! Trust me when I say that The Blue Breeze Inn have the best pork buns I have ever tasted in my entire life.

Liquids for Life is part of Ceres Fresh Market and my go-to food stop. I’m always on the go, so this place is great for me because it’s quick, easy and healthy!

A drive around to Mission Bay is always nice. I usually stop off at Bastion Point because the view of the city and Rangitoto from there is amazing!
