Description
Hi there, I live on the bank of the Waitaki river, a large fishing river flowing from Mt Cook, and the downstream Lakes. I am looking for some help to do some outdoor work, a little bit of vineyard work together and some help building a workaway accommodation. I provide food and you cook our evening meal. The river in front has great fishing, there's a swimming hole, and beautiful lakes close by. feel free to ask questions, thanks Eve
