    29 May - 1 June - Auckland for 3 nights only

    Only 29 May - 1 June is available.

    We are an easy going relaxed kiwi family (kids at university) who can offer a great base to explore Auckland for a few days when you arrive or leave NZ.

    We’re a family home and need some help around the house for a few days:

    It’s mostly cleaning inside the house, especially the windows! There is also some other cleaning like cleaning walls - just wiping them down with soap and water. No heavy work, just a bit boring! But you can play music and sing as loud as you like!!

    Could also do some light gardening work and mow the lawns.

    We’ve had 6 sets of woofers before and they’ve all enjoyed their stay - check you the reviews!

    Own room and own bathroom.

    Close to beaches, bus stop by front door, 25 mins to CBD.
