    Description

    Kia ora! My name is Linda and I am a 61 year old art curator with a coastal property which has a big garden which I am developing. I am looking for help with property maintenance, landscaping and gardening. My property is about an hour by car from Auckland. There is no public transport to Orere Point, but you can come by train to Takanini and I could pick you up from there. I have an electric car with limited range, so am not able to travel further to get you, sorry.
