Description
Hello there ! We are Paul and Barb, a retired couple, living in Pelorus Sound with boat access only. We would like help with projects about the property and house. We have chickens, vegetable gardens, great views, kayaking, fishing and bush walking.
I, Barb, am a retired business owner and have extensive experience in hospo, theatre, costumes and design. I am currently working on expanding my garden and just got 6 new lovely ladies in addition to our 10! Eggs for days!
Paul, is a retired engineer with stories for days.
We are a busy house with lots to do and are looking for mature workawayers who can get stuck into jobs, share their stories and experiences, hold their own in good conversations and enjoy their downtime.
