Description
We are a family of five but often our young adult children are away at University.
We have great coastal views, are on a regular bus route or there is a spare bike about too. Close to Newtown and Island Bay. There is ongoing gardening work, perhaps some painting if you have previous skills plus general help around the house - vacuuming, hanging out washing, dusting and cooking for a night or two or or can hand the kitchen over to you if you prefer !
Do you have these skills and are happy to take the dog for a walk? Then get in touch. We are mostly out at work and school during the week days . The following activities keep our family tramping, ultimate frisbee, and biking.Types d'aide et opportunités d'apprendre

You will have a lovely place to rest and unpack their bags for a while. Having travelled a lot ourselves we know it is nice to have a base and explore just as locals do for a while. A chance to improve your English (with a Kiwi accent), find out about good local walks and bike rides.

Work will be helping us by walking the dog, garden projects. Plus cooking during the week and contributing to general households jobs like vacuuming, hanging out the washing etc. .
We lived in the Netherlands from 2013-2017 and so you can converse with some of us in French, German, Spanish or Dutch!
Football and Ultimate Frisbee are some of the sports our kids are into.
