    Description

    If you love nature & sea, native bush, beaches and organic food, you’ll call Marahau paradise. Walk to the beach or the Abel Tasman Park, have a swim in the sea or in the river, go kayaking with seals or choose a hammock with the bellbirds and tuis. The property has stunning views on Tasman Bay and is directly overlooking the Abel Tasman Park.

    We will adapt to your skills – let’s talk about it before you arrive.
    Goodwill, work ethics, practical sense, tidiness & good sense of responsibility expected.

    At the moment we're focusing on artistic projects, "Space Between" in Marahau & France, and a photography project.
    Experienced and creative help in the following fields is most welcome:
    - Web design and development (WP / HTML / CSS)

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    We'll always do our best to give you tasks you're good at and that you enjoy doing.

    We'll provide good, vegetarian food (mostly organic). We will always ask you to give a hand in the kitchen, for all meals, both with cooking and tidying up.

    WIFI: You're welcome to use our Wifi as long as it doesn't block access for others.

    No drugs on the property please :-)

    The duration of our Wwoofing & Workaway stays varies a lot, from just a few days to several weeks, sometimes even several months. It all depends on how we all get on together - and also on our schedules of course.
    Since we’re sharing the same house it’s very important that we all enjoy being together. Most of the time it’s a great experience but sometimes it simply doesn’t click. In that case it’s all about simply acknowledging it and not making our lives miserable. This is something we can’t know in advance.
    Hope this will make sense for you as well.

    Bring your energy and goodwill, we're looking forward to welcoming you!
