Description
We live on a beautiful 5 acre property on the outskirts of Invercargill and there are always light tasks to do. Sweeping leaves, stacking the woodshed, trimming hedges or weeding.
We love to share our home and enjoy meeting people. Meal times are favourite and my cooking is loved by all. You will never starve. Warm cosy beds and your own bathroom. Sharing stories and adventures is fun.
We love cars so lots to talk about there. Sites to see are plenty in our area. We are 5 km away from the CBD. 40 minutes from Bluff. Catlin’s is a great visit as well as being in walking distance from 2 fabulous parks near home. Come stay with us you will be well looked after.Types of help and learning opportunities

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We have travelled extensively and love to learn about other cultures places and people. We have many friends spread around the world and family living overseas. Our love of food and culture has helped make some amazing connections with people who have stayed with us when we did rental. Also we have had several young travellers stay who had been with a friend helping and then loved our region and wanted a longer stay in the area. We cooked together and enjoyed there company so much we still keep in touch. My husband is big into cars and I love gardening cooking sewing and hosting family and friends. The experience we have is nice to share with others and guide people to the best experiences around our beautiful country
