Kia Ora! Im originally from Sapporo, Japan. I ran a shoe shop for 20 years and have wandered around Italy, France & Spain. I've been living in Queenstown since 2015. I love exploring, learning new things, and meeting awesome people.

Chika was amazing to deal with, Van Is very cool but not the fastest up hill, which is to be expected for such an old girl, we were ok with that as we weren't in a hurry. The bed was so very comfortable and all the bedding was warm. Would totally recommend for trips close to Queenstown

We had the most dreamy experience in Kohwai! Chika was the most lovely host and told us everything we needed to know. She even helped us plan our itinerary based on the vans capabilities. We felt she was extremely kind and accommodating. It has always been a dream of mine to travel in a yellow vw kombi and Kohwai did not disappoint. Highly recommend this experience! The van was well equipped and comfortable for our journey. the little gift Chika left us was just the cherry on top! Excellent host and excellent campervan. We wish we wouldve been able to keep it for longer. thank you, Chika!

We had an amazing experience with "Kwhai" on our trip to New Zealand! She was beautiful and had all the helpful features which made adventure around the south island special. Chika was really helpful too and ensured that we were looked after and knew everything we needed to know about the van!
