Kia Ora,
I’m a Chinese student set to attend Victoria University from February 2026 to July 2027, and I’m currently seeking shared accommodation for my husband and me around Pipitea campus.
My husband is an introverted IT engineer based in China, who will join me in Wellington starting March 2026. We’re both quiet, responsible, easygoing people with very regular daily routines, and we absolutely adore animals and children.
We’re keen to share a home with local flatmates – this way, we can learn from each other, immerse ourselves in New Zealand’s culture, and build genuine connections. I’d also love the chance to get to know you and your kids, and hopefully become good friends!
Thank you for considering us or sharing me with some kind messages.
(Email: shenbochen1122@outlook.com)
warm wishes for everyday.

She wants a one-night stand, and he wants to go through the 36 questions that are meant to lead to love… What unfolds is a night of daring and divulging. Of holding back and holding on. It’s not about happily ever after, it’s about all the people we meet along the way.

Starring Fern Sutherland (Brokenwood Mysteries) Niwa Whatuira (M3gan 2.0) and Anya Tate-Manning (PSA).
