Description

Hello! I'm Chloe :) I love windy days, word games, music, a good cup of tea... And I love physical labor (seriously), sustainability, and people, so I thought Workaway would be a great way to tap those interests. I'm a curious person, looking for new communities and places, new skills, new perspectives... maybe by accident I'll also be introduced to a life-calling! Haha.

I look forward to meeting you!

More details about my language interests
When I say I am a beginner in French, I am a beginner. I studied the language in school but have lost much of my skill over the last few years. But I would love to practice/work towards conversational fluency. And I am a TRUE beginner of Vietnamese - as of May 2026 I only know a handful of words and I'm currently working on introducing myself...

More details about your skills

I love working outdoors - getting my hands/clothes dirty, doing anything that makes me physically tired at the end of a day! I can repeatedly lift 45lb (20kg) canoes over my head and I've cleared entire trees away to a brush pile. I like feeling useful.

I'm pretty great at engaging kids - running around, building forts, playing make-believe, playing any type of game really (not so much video games, but happy to try!), reading books, talking with them about their interests...

I LOVE to learn new things, and I am, at least I've been told, pretty fast at it - I learned the basics of how to row in an 8 racing shell in a matter of days, I learned how to shape bread quickly enough that they hired me off no previous experience, I successfully repaired a rip in the side of a canoe after watching a demonstration of how to mix/apply the resin and fiberglass once... I am enthusiastic and eager to help!

What else ...

I love pretty much any card game! I enjoy crosswords as long as they're clever. I like to sketch/draw people, and I love to read. I am always looking for someone with whom to talk about books. I love long walks and the occasional run. I adore a good cup of tea and I love eating fruits and vegetables as a snack. My sister and I joke that we must have been rabbits in a past life, and some people seem shocked that we'll just chomp down on a bag of plain carrots, but seriously, what's better than a good carrot?

I had a great time staying with Denise and Betsy - what a joyful, kind, and witty pair! Work included dusting high places, washing walls and floors, and weeding one of the pathways alongside their house. I had *ample* (much more than expected) time to explore Queenstown and the surrounding areas, and I would second the review that says they won't … read more

I would highly recommend Chloe, she was a little ray of light and stayed with me for 5 weeks while learning how to make the outrigger's for canoes at a local waka maker. Chloe was by herself most of the time as I was away for 3 weeks. She cut and pasted honey suckle, looked after my 3 goats and cleared drains down the steep drive, and pulled many … read more

The lovely, wonderful, one-and-only Shushila let me stay with her for five weeks while I had the opportunity to do some work for a local waka ama maker. She was actually gone for the middle weeks visiting a friend so I essentially house-sat for her, which included weeding invasives from the backyard bush, and looking after her three goats and six … read more

Marie and David very generously took me in for a last minute stay so that I could travel with my friend a bit longer before we parted ways. I am indebted to their hospitality. I helped with weeding/pruning, moving animals between paddocks with Marie, and log-splitting with Dave (possibly my favorite part! So much fun). Days were filled with … read more

I am so grateful for my time with Gerlinde and her granddaughter Marlene!! I was there for just over a week, and wish I could have stayed longer; they were both incredibly kind and welcoming, and I learned so much... about land care, earth homes, tree-mulching, more...

Work hours were mostly spent helping around the garden, weeding, pulling … read more

Chloe is one of these wonderful young people who restore your faith and trust in the future of our planet and humanity. She stayed with us during the Christmas/New Year's period, and she fitted wonderfully into my family and our routines. So kind, and so very resourceful and efficient! Great communicator and lots of interesting conversations! … read more

Chloe is a fabulous person who was an absolute joy to host. She is clever, hardworking, and great company. Chloe hit my wishlist of chores like a demon. My house has been thoroughly organised and tidied, ready for the family coming for Christmas. She surpassed our expectations. In her spare time, Chloe chose to come down for the dairy farm … read more

I had such a lovely time with Vicky and Lochlan (I unfortunately never got to meet Julian, who was away during my time there), and am grateful to them for letting me join their family for a couple weeks. Vicky is an extraordinarily kind and joyous (and busy - I don’t know how she does it!) woman, with many stories to share - never a dull … read more

Would happily adopt Chloe to part of our family! - Such a calm and wonderful energy and a strong, and competent young woman. Great work ethic and wonderful company. Would be an amazing human to be part of any host project. Happy travels Chloe - from you NZ mom and dad :-)

I am so very thankful to have stayed with Craig and Rachel for my first month in Aotearoa/NZ. They are incredibly kind, great conversationalists, easy-going, and astonishingly generous; my time with them flew.

I worked on a variety of projects — weeding invasives, helping create a living roof for one of their cob buildings, distributing mulch, … read more
