    Looking for a great soul to help me
    ===============

    Hi, I am Riffat. I live with my wife in Auckland. There is Manukau harbour view from our house from which we see the sunsets everyday. It is honestly very beautiful and comfortable to live here. We also have a cat who is always up for some pets. My point is, while helping me/ after or before helping, you get to enjoy all the benefits to our house such as the beaches nearby and the beautiful lake-view. Wifi will of course be provided to use in your free time. Your accommodation is comfortable. You will have to account for the tides to enjoy the kayaking or canoeing in the harbour. Wind surfing is very much popular but need to have your own.
