    Description

    We are a hard working couple in 60's who will treat you as friends. Just us and our beautiful small dog. We have travelled the world doing volunteer work ourselves and it has been an amazing experience. We love people from all walks of life. We owned a small hotel in the past and Jay was an emt ambulance officer as a volunteer for 10 years. We have now retired to Auckland and have a few projects coming up with our home. WE find it is best that we all work together for the whole day and then you have a whole day off, or however we do it. We provide meals on the days that you work and are happy to provide food for you to cook for all of us on a shared meal. Very quiet house and location.
