Favourite beach?
Narrow Neck, Devonport.. my Dad is the unofficial mayor of Devonport and I’ve been going to this beach for 50 fabulous years.

Favourite restaurant for dinner with friends?
Blue Breeze Inn or Ponsonby Food Hall... gotta be budget savvy.
Favourite place to take a visitor to?
When I’m not acting I have a part-time job in Tourism... our tourists are always blown away when we take them up Maungauika North Head... the view is spectacular, I kōrero about the islands and the Hauraki Gulf and I beam with pride.

Start at Bar Martin, finish at Goblin.
