Beschreibung
Have loved all the travellers that have passed though our H O M E in 2026 so far!
Would love to find our last 2026 Workaway to end the year on a high 😁🥰🤩
We will then take a well deserved break over December/January where we hang with family and friends and travel and enjoy our summer holidays.
If your asking to come in 2027 ill try reply in December for now im focusing on the October/November gap - family life is crazy and planning that far ahead is not possible currently.
We are a family of 4
Mum & Dad are in their 30s
Im outgoing, loud, sarcastic, busy, fun, caring, helpful & spontaneous
Husband is working alot he is a tractor/truck driver/mechanic, introvert, quiet, honest & kind
Both daughters are talkative, very active, love outdoors, loud, social, would play games all day & AMAZING!! hehe
We currently have no pets/animals
We offer food/accomodation for help around the house. We have a beautiful home and large section with established gardens with many many plant varieties.
Breakfast and dinner is supplied ONLY please bring your own items for lunch thankyou (use of kitchen obviously included)
General tasks are gardening, housework, cooking, hanging with the kids, and just integrading into our everyday life. If you have a specialty skill i will also hone in on that eg sewing or building or mosaic/art etc etc
We enjoy going for walks and swims
Fish and chips at the park
Watching movies
Playing games
There is a stunning bushwalk right outside our door. And Geraldine is a lovely town to explore
Bonus if you speak German as id like our daughters to learn it and i speak German.
Please understand we are a family and also working so may have to change plans last minute. Life Happens. Sickness happens; things pop up unexpectidly 😁 Im usually pretty good at making things work last minute tho
Also please note we are a smoke/vape/drug free home
We are in a great location for busses into Geraldine Town from Christchurch or Queenstown
If you are coming from Dunedin or Christchurch there is also the option to bus to "Orari" Town which is 5mins away and im happy to help with transport for people travelling in those directions -

She got on very will with the children. She was great in the kitchen cooking and helping with washing and tidying up
Im unsure if it was a language barrier or my talking but some things got missed.
I love her enthusiasm for travel keep doing it ! We hope to visit you 1 day in Japan
She was helpful around the house and good with the girls. And lots to talk about
You set the bar high even if it was just a breif stay.
Bre is fantastic with children !
She tag teamed with another workaway to look after our girls so we could go to a wedding. And the verdict from the kids (and the other workaway) was "she is amazing" maybe my favourite one said my daughter.
