    Aloha! We are Matt and Noelle with 18 month old Serene, 4 year old Micah and three older daughters age 11,9,7. Matt grew up in the Philippines so felt at home when he moved to big island. Noelle was born and raised on Kauai, got her degree in California and travelled abroad, living in Italy 6 months, new Zealand 6 months and other places) before moving to the big island. We have a family bakery cafe business in town ( inspired by living in Europe with fresh organic sourdough, croissants, coffee...), but we are not asking for work at our business, rather an exchange on the home front. :)

    We are a homeschooling family. Our kiddos are super sweet and just wonderful (no bias!) And our baby girl Serene (1) brings us so much joy! We love living as creatures in God's beautiful jungle here in Puna on the big island. We enjoy music, singing, community, cooking (and baking of course), natural health, Lego creations, reading good living literature, ocean play, working outside and meeting new people- to name a few!

    We have very much enjoyed hosting people from around the world in the past and look forward to welcoming you!

    We are busy building our family business (bakery cafe) and more importantly, investing in and raising our five children. We are not available to be tour guides everyday (as our lives are very full) but we hope be good hosts while you enjoy our island and look forward to getting to know you and share life together during your stay.

    There will be food available in the kitchen in your place for you to eat and cook for yourself. Specifically, organic eggs, organic sourdough bread from our bakery, butter,jelly, organic peanut butter, bean,rice, some veggies, some fruit, salt, pepper, local honey, coffee and tea. Of course you can also buy other food items you may need. We are 10 min drive from the coast cliffs (note, not water access). Hilo (bigger) town with several good ocean swimming areas is 30 min away. Ideal experience for someone interested in exploring hawaii (note: consider renting a car) while having a home to do so from!

    Some days we will need help with housework help with maintaining and expanding our garden beds, permaculture food forest landscaping , composting, some help with animal care, help cleaning house, some meal prep, run errands, various household tasks.


    Experience the beautiful hawaiian green jungle (note: rainy, but warm) in our Puna district of Hawaii, close to the newest lava flow on earth!

    It is a ten min drive to the coastal mini beach at uncle Roberts (they have awesome local music wednesday nights for a cover charge) 15 minutes to Stunning black sand beach (clothing optional). 20 min drive to the newest lava beach on Earth (!!!!) and geothermal pond. Pahoa has a health food store, shops, kava kombucha bar, organic sourdough bakery, live music dinners, Thai, Hawaiian, italian and more.
    Hilo is 30min. Kona 2 hours. Volcano town 1hour.
    Hitch hiking is common here, but obviously unpredictable way to travel, and there is a bus that picks up close and goes around island, but does not come frequently and requires walking to places of interest. There are so many things to see! Volcano national park, Kona beach camping, Mauna kea, old time cowboy country of waimea, South point. We may have a spare tent to lend you. We might offer a vehicle for use on off hours for an affordable exchange.
