    Hi all workawayers!

    We are a lovely family of 4, we have 2 gorgeous children. We live in Ohāu, which is 7 minutes from Levin and 30 minutes from Paraparaumu.
    We live on a lifestyle block, with 3 acres to enjoy. We are wanting help with our gardens and odd farm tasks. As well as people who can teach us and our children languages. We are keen to learn more about different cultures, foods, and routines.

    Workawayers - We have an entire 1 bedroom house for Workawayers to reside in. We call it the sleep out. We usually rent it out.
    A little bit about Ohāu. Ohāu is truly a beautiful place, there are so many incredible walks, and river swimming holes to explore. It is a tranquil place, which offers incredible sunrises and sunsets. It is only a short drive to Levin, which has buses, and a train station to take you to Palmerston North or Paraparaumu.



    A little bit about what we are wanting/excepting- We are wanting either females, or couples. No male solos sorry! You are welcome if you are respectful, and keen to get stuck in with gardening, and farm jobs, as well as one hour per week dedicated to teaching us and our children languages.


    I look forward to hearing from you all.
