Beschreibung
Hi, we are a family of 4, kids aged 1 & 3 living in New Plymouth Taranaki, 3.5km from Ngamutu beach and less than 5 km from Centre City. We immigrated from South Africa (Pretoria) in 2019. I serve as a Minister at a Presbyterian congregation and my husband works as a Veterinary Surgeon. Our long-haired chihuahua also immigrated with us.
We like to have a video-chat discussion before making any commitment.
We wish you the best with your workaway experience!
Greta, Jasper, Clara & Michael.

You are more than welcome to use our car (& Child car seats) to get around.
New Plymouth has plenty of beautiful parks and gardens, (incl. Pukekura park), a sunny climate, art galleries, decadent dining and family-friendly fun. New Plymouth also has a high concentration of world-class surf breaks suitable for all levels, from beginner-friendly waves to more challenging breaks.
Taranaki is one of the few places on earth where you can ski in the morning and surf in the afternoon, with Ski Season being between early June to mid-October (dependant on natural snowfall).
Our city was awarded the most livable city (for a population between 75,000-150,000) by the International Awards for Livable Communities. It’s no fluke as we won the same award in 2008. Our award-winning Coastal Walkway is a 13.2km path that forms an expansive sea-edge promenade and is excellent for walking, running, cycling, skateboarding, skating and scooting.
We only live 35km away from Mount Taranaki, a breathtaking natural wonder on New Zealand's North Island! This stunning volcanic peak is a must-visit destination for outdoor enthusiasts, nature lovers, and anyone seeking an unforgettable experience.
Imagine a majestic mountain rising 2,518 meters (8,261 feet) into the sky, its symmetrical cone shape a sight to behold. The mountain's slopes are cloaked in lush native forests, home to ancient trees, sparkling waterfalls, and a diverse array of wildlife.
As you explore the mountain, you'll discover:
- Hiking trails for all levels, from easy day walks to multi-day treks and challenging summit climbs
- Panoramic views of the surrounding countryside, including the Tasman Sea and neighboring mountains
- A rich cultural heritage, with significance to the local Maori people and a fascinating history
- A range of outdoor activities, such as skiing, snowboarding, and rock climbing
- A serene and peaceful atmosphere, perfect for relaxation and rejuvenation
New Plymouth is lucky to have lots of walkways and is widely regarded as one of New Zealand’s leading cities for getting around on foot or by bike. We have a Citylink bus stop right across our driveway or alternatively you can make use of the Blip e-scooters.
