  Description

  We’re back! And excited to meet some new people!
  
  My son and I live on a beautiful property just outside Gore, NZ. We would love the opportunity to share it and meet some new people. Areas of skills that we need are DIY, maintenance, gardening, home making and teaching. We are happy to consider all options but would preferably like a minimum stay of two - three weeks to get some traction with various projects.
  One project that needs some expertise is the rebuild of a water wheel!

  Help

  I (Sarah) am from Ireland and always keen to hear some foreign accents and maybe even brush up on some previously learned languages.
  In our lives we enjoy doing a wide variety of things from reading, quilting, hiking, as well as more passive things like yoga & meditation. We have travelled lots and really love meeting people from all walks of life.
  We are new to our property and learning it. It is absolutely beautiful and has lots of exciting opportunities from gardening to water wheel repair.
