Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Golden Bay is an amazing place to visit with lots of tramping / hiking, rock climbing, and beautiful beaches to explore. I would love to show you around and give you advice on local places to visit. There are also lots of community events which you can take part in including dance, music, local food markets, waka ama, and a big rock climbing community.

Accommodation
Self contained sometimes preferred or sleep-out is available.
For example, if you require accommodation and food, you will be expected to work 4 - 5 hours per day, but if you are sleeping in your own motorhome or caravan and do not require food, you will be expected to work 2 hours per day. We can work something out for your requirements :)
What else ...
Having your own vehicle is recommended so you can explore and access all the great surrounds within Golden Bay.
