  • Description

    Description

    I am 63yr old and I am 34yrs in a wheelchair following a horse riding accident.
    I live in a beautiful home on a large farm with lots of animals.
    I was born in Kenya, have visited 45 countries and have lived in NZ for 36 years.
    I have a large garden and swimming pool and love to have a helping hand.
    I enjoy mono skiing and Blokarting.
    Having travelled a lot myself I know how it is to be on an adventure . Hopefully I can provide a home away from home.
    (My preference would be to have a single female or a married couple)
