Beschreibung
I am a 50yr + American and have been in New Zealand for 17 years. I also spent several years in the UK, Cameroon and China. I've spent much of my working life all over the world so have lots of stories and curiosities about other countries to share.
I am passionate about sustainability and work as a learning & development professional for a conservation organization. I share my home with a lab-staffy cross 11 year old dog and 8 year old cat. There are chickens in the back garden.
My needs:
I'm early to bed, early to rise, so this is not a fit for someone into late nights.
I do not smoke or drink. You must be a non-smoker. Non-drinkers are preferred.
I work mostly from home, so need someone that can be respectful of my space and availability during the day.
Days that I facilitate/provide online training I tend to be pretty worn out and tired of talking to people, so may not feel very social. Someone who can moderate their need for social interaction with me is ideal, though the dog will always be your best friend and provide company ;-). He's an excellent listener.
Meals:
This is a vegetarian household, so meals provided will be goodness harvested from the property and wholesome plant-based foods. If any of the chickens are laying there would be eggs available.
I enjoy shared dinners and great conversation most of the time!Arten von Hilfe und Lernmöglichkeiten

I have lived and worked on 6 continents throughout my life and have insights to multiple cultures. As tauiwi in Aotearoa New Zealand, I am a student of te reo and tikanga Māori, and am involved in a raranga group (flax weaving) which has significant Māori cultural protocols. My gardening approach follows maramataka, the traditional lunar cycle so there would be elements for sharing and learning.
All of the renovations to my home and landscaping I have done myself so can always share knowledge and lessons learned (the hard way usually!) with those interested in building and gardening.Arbeit
I've got a range of garden, DIY and general home maintenance tasks to provide flexibility for what best suits the interests and abilities of the workawayer.
I've got an expanding permaculture garden so there is always weeding, mulching, planting, pruning to do. My garden shed needs reorganization.
Around the home there is painting and/or cleaning and/or various simple diy renovation projects either underway or on the 'to do' list.
Days that I travel into Hamilton for work it would be great to provide some company for the dog and a walk.Sprachen

My home is a simple, small three-bedroom house. You would be in a room with a very comfortable double bed with views to the nearby mountain, garden and estuary.
The house has views to the Harbour and sea and is very peaceful yet only a 10 minute walk to the shops and cafes of Raglan.Was noch ...
Google Whaingaroa/Raglan and you'll see what this little town has to offer. It's a great surf spot and easy access for many water activities (SUP, kayak, kite surfers and hydrofoils). There are multiple art enclaves and a few venues for live music, yoga, and dance. There is daily bus service between Raglan and Hamilton in case you need access to services Raglan cannot offer.
