    Beschreibung

    Hi, we're Steve and Sandy, we have a lifestyle block in Tauwhare, Waikato, where we attempt to live self-sufficiently, growing our own vegetables, fruit, nuts and berries in a semi-organic way. Our elderly Dad lives in Coromandel and grows his own food too. We're looking for someone who would be keen to help us on our block, as well as potentially spending some time helping our Dad at the beach, with general housework and gardening over the Summer holidays.

    Tauwhare is 15 minutes from Hamilton, Cambridge and Morrinsville, we have fantastic rural views over the rolling countryside, with the convenience of towns nearby. From home it's a 2km walk to bus services into Hamilton. There are many local tourist attractions nearby, including Hamilton Gardens, Waitakaruru Sculpture Park, Hobbiton, Waitomo Glow Worms, and Hauraki Rail Trail, within an hour radius.

    Coromandel township is a scenic 2.5 hr drive from Hamilton, and also a ferry ride from Auckland via Waiheke Island. There are beautiful harbour views from Dad's home, and beaches for safe swimming within walking distance.

    We are professional New Zealanders, and Dad is German. We'd love to share our kiwi culture with international workawayer's and learn about your culture as well. We have almost organic gardening practices and there's always build projects going on around our block. We have a wonderful outdoor area with views for sunset meals, and are developing a native bush area with pond, with frogs and ducks in the pond.
