New Zealand family hosts four German students during lockdown

The students had planned to be travelling around New Zealand when the lockdown came in nearly two weeks ago.

Four German students who were invited to shelter with a New Zealand family during a nationwide lockdown said they have been having lots of fun sharing meals, playing football and trying to learn guitar.

Their host family said the unexpected guests have been equally enriching for their three children, as they spend the nights together roasting marshmallows or playing cards.
