Description
Hi We are a French (Charline 36) Kiwi (Jon 49) couple we are living in Methven for 6 years now.
We also have a 10 months old baby.
The Cat Toby spend most of his day on his favorite cushion and Blue the dog who will be happy to play (very friendly)
We need help to keep the place clean and tidy inside and outside
We would need someone or a couple to help us to do so.
We will you keep busy don't worry.
The best for us is to start by one week stay and see how the project is going and if we get along, 4 hours a day is fair I think, (I think it's better to work in the morning as in the afternoon it's getting hot)
It would be better for you to have your own car (street park available) if you don't I can pick you up to the bus stop in Ashburton and show you around when I ll have time :)
Methven is a very nice place to live very picturesque little Kiwi town very animated for skying in winter with Mount Hutt.
There is all facilities near by (shops, pubs....)
We don't want party animals as we like quiet time here, we enjoy good companie and good chat around a good diner.
We don't want smokers, I stopped myself two year ago and don't like the smell of it at all :(
