Jacinda Ardern takes us on a tour of her office in Parliament.
New Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern has given the public a rare insider's view - including behind her desk - of her new office.
There is a bit of marble and some flash signage reading "Office of the Prime Minister'' and a wide view of Wellington Harbour.
With her signature smile,Ardern welcomes us to her new space in a video released by the Labour Party.
"So here we are on the ninth floor of the Beehive. It's a place that I'm really aware that most people don't get much of a chance to see, let alone visit.
"So I thought I'd take this opportunity, on the first day that we are over here moving in - still surrounded by a few boxes - just to give you a little bit of an insight into the place where I'm lucky enough to be working; thanks to many of your support."
The camera suddenly moves to a side of the office she acknowledges not many people have seen - given most of the photographs and videos taken of the country's leaders are of them sitting at their desk.
"You're currently positioned behind the desk where I'll be working from and where many other Prime Ministers have worked before me.
"This is where I will be living and breathing for a lot of my time when I'm here in Wellington, other than times that I'm in the debating chamber."
