Paula Dicks

Queenstown,OTA

Summary

I am traveling through New Zealand with a Working Holiday Visa since November. I am 23 years old, and I come from Germany. I love New Zealand and have traveled a lot. Now I want to stay for the winter season in Queenstown. I really want to get to know the New Zealand culture better, and have a good time with nice people, so that I will remember the experience fondly.
