    Description

    Hi! We live 10km out of a rural town in Central Otago; Alexandra!

    Our household is busy, with four little people all under 4. We have a small mob of sheep, a horse and three dogs who also call our place home. '

    We keep ourselves busy with our kids and our businesses - the time we have spare we like to keep fit and active.

    We are a very busy family who would love to share where we live and learn about another culture.

    You will be a part of our family; see the way we interact with each other, our kids with you and you with us. Our rural location will mean you may make closer bonds with the community and our neighbours.

  • Help

    Help

    We need a bit of a hand around our place; this could range from weeding our vegetable garden to collecting manure for it - this aspect is reasonably physical.

    Other assistance we would also appreciate would be someone who is able to interact with our kids while dinner is being cooked and teach them about your culture and things you do; this could be with crafts, story telling or just an interaction.
