Beschreibung
We are a farming family with 5 children. Their ages are 18, 17, 14, 12, and 10
CURRENTLY we are looking for someone to help with cleaning around the house and garden and feeding animals. Due to an unexpected change of plans, we have availability immediately from 1 Oct -7th Oct
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
We love meeting new people and learning about different cultures. I think it is a really valuable learning opportunity for our children also. We are friendly relaxed people.
Rotorua has so many beautiful things to see and do. Ziplining, luge, gonodolas, thermal hot pools, mudpools,
beautiful lakes are so close. The beach is an hour away and Hobbiton in 45 minutes away.
Get in touch - we are looking forward to meeting you! -

The communication with Delia was really nice and first pretty organized.
But then she said to me in a really short term that I can not come. She also did not want to explain me why or tell me a reason for.
I think you can have a really nice time by them but you should be careful and do not expect to 100% that you can come, when she invites you.
