Description

Hi!

I’m Jake, I'm 26, and from a small town High Wycombe in England.

I’m a musician and a keen traveller - I’ve moved about a lot in the last few years, living in Spain, Cornwall, London, The Isle of Skye, and New Zealand. I've also walked the Camino de Santiago back in 2023 (maybe the most special experience of my life) and biked from my home to Albania in 2024.

I'm very hard-working, I've worked in hospitality for over 10 years and still enjoy it! I'm friendly and kind, I really enjoy meeting new people and making special connections. I enjoy outdoor work, gardening, and working with animals, I also would love to find stays that involve a spiritual/meditation/yoga side to them✨

I can’t wait to meet you!

thanks,
Jake

Jake was a delightful addition to our family. He was very helpful, when weather permitted 🤣. It rained the first days. After that we found Jake to be meaningful, fun to work with and generally great to share time and space with. He was super helpful with our firewood. We only wish he stayed longer. Let him play a tune for you as he’s a great … read more

Jake was a polite and trustworthy young volunteer who stayed with us for 5 weeks. He got along well with other volunteers and worked effectively both as part of a team and independently. Jake was punctual and dependable throughout his stay. We highly recommend Jake to other hosts.

I stayed at Frank & Junko's place for around 5 weeks and what an incredible time I had.

From the moment I arrived I felt so welcomed and at home. Their home is absolutely beautiful and I thoroughly enjoyed being able to play the piano and guitar everyday. My room was really big, light and airy and even had AC which came in handy on those hot … read more

What a great 10 days I had at Mamaki, thank you Julia again for everything! As soon as I arrived I felt at home at Julia's place. We had some really nice times sharing stories over delicious dinners, working on the land which was so beautiful and it didn't feel at all like a chore, and also some nice trips into Whangarei and all the way to Rawene … read more
