We have lived here on the island since 2010 and really love it. The island is beautiful and has so many amazing places to see. Surrounded by the sea with lovely beaches and walks is sometimes hard to imagine how we can actually live here. Not far from where I grew up (North shore) but feels like a Paradise here. I take sole care of my 14 year old daughter since 2009 when my wife passed. Jade is now in year 9 at high school. I have a couple of properties and now mainly work from home. We have an awesome cat (Harry) (7yrs) whom we all serve but he does like cuddles occasionally. Jade and I both really enjoy the company of having visitors to stay.

This would be a good opportunity for someone to stay in one of the most beautiful places in NZ.. Paradise in paradise:)
Improve your english, come adventure with us if you want. We can show you where all the nice walks and views are, we live just 2 mins walk from the beach, or if you prefer just to do your own thing, its a great place to just chill..
The role is generally more relaxed, helping out around the house with whatever you’re comfortable with. For us is nice to have help with some cleaning and with meals is always wonderful but we don’t have any fixed schedule, if you want to you can make your own. Sometimes babysitting the cat and occasionally I need help with a project.. No Drivers licence required. We are happy to give you tips and can show you around all the best places and give you a locals perspective =)
