Description

We visited New Zealand which was awesome. We had a lot of lovely workaway experiences and now are on our way to Japan! We want to experience the countryside and would love to help out at some places and make some friends along the way. We would also love to get to know some culture and think the best way to experience it, is to hang out with people! We are dreaming of one day maybe owning a ranch so we need all the practice we can get! We both love animals and Emma has experience with horses and helping out at riding schools. We are both mellow and are in it for the experience and the adventure and we dont mind some hard work.

We are a few weeks late writing this review, but even now the initial Pukirangi infatuation has worn off, we still think very often and fondly of our experience with Mark and Maz. They are inspirational people with an ambitious project, being a part of that has been really amazing. The job can be hard work but it is also really satisfying to get … read more

I had a great time at Mike's. His land is beautiful and spacious. Mike is an incredible energetic guy and its really cool how he has a vision for his land.

Which is great when youre like me and you have … read more

He carries these qualities quietly, so it took a few days to get a feeling for his way of being. He is a friendly and thoughtful guy who seemed to be as … read more
