An interesting customer story to end the week

This is Nick
Nick, who is half Iranian and half Japanese, born in Belgium and is a citizen of Canada, has travelled to 135 countries! That’s right 135. We thought he was very fortunate to have that much travelling experience. We asked which city or country he had seen was his favourite (thinking he would say Hawaii given his T-shirt 🤫) but Nick said it was difficult as each time it got better and better! Welcome to NZ friend.
