Description
We are located in Wanaka.
We need help with the garden and some spring cleaning and decluttering. Due to a long term injury I also need some help with some basic tidying up and household chores that I am struggling with.
If it is in your skill set some computer work would be very helpful too.
I like to treat my helpers as family members and try to make sure they have a fun time with me.
Wanaka is an amazing wee village all year round. Possibly the best spot in New Zealand. The village centre is within an easy walking distance. We are surrounded by hikes, a lake, mountains, rivers and a lot of natural beauty.
I am an artist, there are up to three children and two cats. Come and join our family for a week or so.
** IMPORTANT - Please Note: Sorry smoking or vaping on the property is not permitted. I cannot host campervans or people sleeping in their car or van. (My landlord does not permit it) **
I can usually only host in the spring & summer months. However sometimes need help in autumn.
