Informationen
Beschreibung
Hi my name is Robyn and I live in Raglan, famous for it's amazing surf, laidback lifestyle and friendly community. My home is a lovely, sunny, comfortable and creative space which I share with two dogs, as well as friends and family who come to chill out at the beach, there are also 2 self contained studios at the back of my house one which I currently rent out to Ryan.
I work as a health professional, make art and craft, practice yoga, and enjoy getting out to the beaches with the dogs or walking in the bush areas around my home. I live a quiet, healthy lifestyle, I do eat meat (after being vegetarian for 15 years) but am absolutely fine if you are vegetarian and am happy to eat that way while you stay.

Raglan is a really stunning place with lots of beaches, bush walks, surfing and yoga classes to get involved in.
Arbeit
I work 4 days a week, some at home and some out of Raglan, so you will need to be able to work alone and sometimes be available to work with me on a project over the weekend. I am pretty flexible how you do your hours - eg 4 hours a day or 8 hours one day and a day off the next....20 hours over the week in total whether that's during the week or weekend.
There is gardening to do, general looking after/maintenance around the house which might involve spring cleaning or water blasting, interior/exterior painting. Hopefullly you like dogs as they are always keen for a walk.
Gesprochene Sprachen
Englisch: Fließend
Maori: Grundkenntnisse
Unterkunft
A comfortable, warm and sunny home, there is a double or single room in the house for workawayers to stay in . The bathroom, kitchen & living areas are shared spaces in the main house.
Was noch ...
While there is bus service in the area it is not particularly frequent or useful for getting around beyond taking you to Hamilton city ....it's an easily walkable distance to swim in the harbour....need to drive or cycle to get to good surf beach.

Vom Host für Workawayer (Emily)
Emily and her brother Noah came and stayed for 2 weeks with me here in Raglan, New Zealand and very quickly settled in, bringing their interesting perspectives, thoughtful conversations, positive energy and hard working selves to their time here. I cannot recommend highly enough - i would definitely have both of them back to stay again.
