Looking for house to rent

Amy from Crofton Downs

Hello:

I am posting this on behalf of my husband's colleague who is here on a 3-year contract. They are looking for a 3-bedroom home to rent in Wellington. Here is their bio:

We are a German family of 4, mum Romy, Dad Mario, Elina 6 and Millie 1. We recently moved to New Zealand from Cambridge UK, where we lived for the last 3 years. We enjoy being away from home and thought why not moving to New Zealand whenever there would be an opportunity and here we are, enjoying our first few weeks very much. Mario works as a research fellow at GNS Science and VUW and Romy is currently at home until the girls are both settled in school and kindergarten. We are an open minded, easygoing and very social family and very experienced in renting homes, whoever is looking for nice tenants who will take good care of their home, will most probably be happy with us. :)

Mario Krapp 0273262870

Please contact them directly if you have a property available or know someone who does. Thanks!

🌉🛶 Early Birds Might Crack This One First… or Not? 🥚🧠

The Riddler from The Neighbourly Riddler

A person is crossing a bridge and sees a boat full of people, yet there isn't a single person on board.
How is this possible?

Poll: Are you still heading to your local for your caffeine fix, or has the $$ changed your habits? ☕

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Wellington’s identity is built on its cafe culture, but with costs climbing, that culture is under pressure. We’ve seen the headlines about recent closures, and it’s a tough pill to swallow along with a $6+ coffee.

We all want our favourite spots to stay open, but we also have to balance our own budgets ⚖️

We want to know: How are you handling the "coffee math" in 2026? Are you still heading to your local for a chat and a caffeine fix, or has the cost of living changed your habits?

Keen to read more about "coffee math"? The Post has you covered.

🪱🐦 When are you the most productive? 🌙🦉

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Post has been diving into our daily habits, and research suggests being an early bird or a night owl isn’t just a choice—it’s biology! We all have that specific time when our brains finally "click" into gear.

This raises a big question for the modern workplace. To get the best out of everyone, should employers accommodate our natural body clocks? This idea is at the heart of the four-day work week and flexible scheduling movements.

We want to hear from you:
1. When does your brain "click" into gear?
2. Would a flexible (or shortened) schedule change the way you work?
