Walk Wellington was delighted to honour a promise, made in 2020, when USA couple Jason & Heather Karuza walked Wellington with Walk Wellington this weekend.🙂
The Karusas were finally in NZ on their delayed visit.
In the chaos of early their pre-paid booking (thru a 3rd party) was lost so Walk Wellington (who never received the payment ) said should they ever make it to they would be our welcome guests,
It was guide Kit's privilege to keep that promise.
We hope the wait has been worth it Heather and Jason, and wish you both well during your time here🚶‍♀️🚶🚶‍♂️
