Hi Travelers
We are 4km from the historical township of Kerikeri.
I am a retired Naturopath and Osteopath and well traveled myself.
I volunteered in 2 projects in Africa .. It was amazing.
We love the out doors, beaches & diving, gardening, art, refurbishing, music.
We live the dream on a beautiful farmlet in the Bay of Islands.
You have a double room in the new house
There is a fabulous huge swimming pool.
You may borrow a car (petrol your responsibility) and we supply ingredients for basic kiwi breakfast & lunch. The rest is up to you.
You will see our 100% rating for my Manly Beach and Kerikeri hosting over the last 15 years.
We look forward to your help. Tasks are varied and currently I need assistance with creative projects and in refurbishing, cleaning, farm maintenance, building gardens, building, art projects, computer help, organizing me.....etc
We have chickens, and Kat.
We grow organic food and eat healthy and practice a sustainable lifestyle.
There is so much to see and do in Northland that this is a wonderful part of the world to spend any time that you have free. Historical villages, mud pools, Cape Reinga, walking tracks, beaches ........
We can help you avoid the pitfalls of negotiating your way around a new country.
We look forward to hearing from you.
Best wishes
Barbara.

I stayed at Barbara's for a week with some other Workaways. we worked in her beautiful garden and got to relax in pool at the end of a hot day. the car available was really useful as it allowed us to go to Russell for a day trip and to get shopping for food as Barbara had to go away for a couple of nights

I spent approximate one week with Barb & Joe and it was a wonderful experience. To be honest the best part was spending time with my 3 french "host siblings" (thanks a lot to Vicky, Elsa & Marlou) but also the work was a lot of fun. The task are easy and change often therefore it will never get boring. :)

I've spent a wonderful week with Barbara and Derek (her flatmate). She asked me to clad the walls and roof of her cabin. Since carpentry is my hobby at home, it was a project I absolutely loved. She made me feel welcome from day one. New Zealanders are very friendly and helpful people. I was introduced to the neighbor, some family members and… read more

I stay with Barbara for about a week and really appreciated being there and enjoyed her company. I worked in the garden and did a number of handy man jobs. The house is very comfortable and the beach just a few minutes walk. Thank you for having me in your home Barbara. This was a very pleasant and peaceful experience.
