Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Travellers would benefit from an experience of staying with a New Zealand family in a relaxed home. You’d also have chance to speak English and help us enjoy aspects of your own culture and language. From our place there is easy access to areas of natural beauty including Mclaren Falls park, Mount Maunganui and Tauranga as well as nearby Rotorua brimming with cultural heritage.

They put a lot of trust into you and give you quite a lot of freedom while working. They are very generous and provide more than enough food. The boys are lovely too, especially Oakley won my heart! I really miss them already! Being their workawayers has been a great pleasure!
