Description
Hi! I have a home by the beach in south Taranaki, NZ. It’s a wild beautiful place. I also own a lettuce farm! I love art and music and know loads of cool places for you to explore. I’m looking for people who can help me with projects around the house, from simple things like cleaning and weeding, to more difficult things like painting and building. I have a queen bedroom available with a view of the mountain. Mostly you’ll have have your own bathroom unless my 17 year old is home from school, then you’ll share with him. From the deck of my house you can see the ocean and the snow capped mountain. I have one old fat black cat. Come and stay!

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
I love travelling and meeting new people. I will love hearing about you and your life. I’ll tell you great places to go and if time allows I’ll take you to show you cool spots. My place is a little remote so you might prefer to have a vehicle, to get around on adventures!
I’m a qualified life coach too!

Accommodation
Your own sunny room with a queen sized bed. Bathroom and loo next to you, mostly will only be you using it. Gas hot water. Full kitchen and dining room, lounge and two decks. Front and back. We might share cooking. I’ll provide lots of yummy food. I sleep upstairs in a mezzanine floor and don’t have a door I can shut so I like it if you shut yours at night so you can’t hear me snoring 😂
What else ...
There are buses to New Plymouth from Hawera (connector bus is the cheapest). I’m not in a town I’m in a slightly remote village :)
