  Description

  Hi! We are Candace, Josue, Violeta (our 2 year old daughter) and Bella (our dog), a Kiwi/Venezuelan family living in the beautiful Kerikeri. We are looking for some awesome travellers to help us primarily around our garden (weeding, planting, digging etc.) and various other building projects that we always seem to have on the go (building decks, sheds...the list goes on). If your handy in the garden or on the tools, we'd love to have you.

  We love meeting new people and showing others our beautiful part of the world. From the walking tracks around Kerikeri that are accessible from the bottom of our property, to sailing excursions in the bay of islands - we would be happy to show you around and include you in any of the fun activities we get up to.
  
  Josue speaks both Spanish and English fluently plus a range of other languages and enjoys expanding his language skills.
  
  Candace has been all over the world, including spending a few years on workaways herself. We hope to be inspired for future trips by you!
