Northland is steeped in early history and cultural sites. Having worked in tourism we can offer advice on tours to get full benefit of culture. We can take guided tour on horseback along beaches and show cultural sites off the beaten tourist track. We offer a kiwi rural culture experience wit healthy eating and living.
Animal lovers are a must as we have plenty. We would like help with lifestyle block living such as feeding animals, gardening, maintenance, horse riding and small household chores when needed. Your own transport will enable you to get around on your own.People experienced in horse care is a bonus.. couples or singles are ok easygoing personality , independent and a smile is great.
