Description
The more I travel, the more I learn. In my normally programmed life, I am an educator. I love sharing my passion for science and the outdoors, and I love what I learn in response from those I interact with. I'm also an enthusiastic artist- writing, photography, drawing, and painting for the most part. I'm always up for learning a new skill or trying something I've never done before.

Chandler is a beautiful, cheerful lady who is able to turn her hand to anything asked of her. A capable woman, in any language. We enjoyed conversations, meals, rest and most of all, we managed to harvest food from the tunnelhouse and prepare it for the freezer. Thank you Chandler, for your company, your willingness and your good nature. If you… read more

I had a lovely few days with Leah. She has an amazing garden and I was at her place in time to help harvesting a bunch of things like gooseberries and peas. She made some tasty meals out of the stuff from her garden and we had lots of chats about absolutely everything. I would definitely recommend staying with her.

Jo is awesome! She is an incredibly nice person and staying with her and her family was such a pleasure. I got to help make a new garden, which was really fun. Jo’s also an amazing artist and she and I had a ton of conversations about art. She’s so helpful! If I’m in the area again, I’m definitely staying there again.

Sarndra is such a lovely person and her property is stunning. By doing lots of odd jobs around the massive garden, I got to soak in the ocean view and the garden every day. Sarndra's veggie meals are very tasty. I felt very welcome in her home and would absolutely stay with her again.

I'm so glad I said yes to Chandler's request for a host. She fitted in with the rest of the helpers very well and did everything I asked of her to the highest standard - and always with a smile and a great attitude.
She did a lot of weeding and clearing of my very overgrown garden, Covered the cherry trees with net curtains - showing great sewing… read more

This family is amazing! I spent two weeks with them on their property near Christchurch and it was so fun. I did lots of odd jobs that needed getting done around the house, but it never felt like too much. I loved hanging out with the girls, doing art projects or playing in the backyard. Phil's cooking is awesome. He and Margaret really make it a… read more

Chandler was an excellent fit for us, got stuck into the jobs list and put in some serious dog walking hours. We even managed to make use of her artistic skills in drawing me a sketch of our current landscaping project. Chandler went above and beyond, attending the girls Brownie evenings as a helper, doing art with them etc. Much appreciated! Hope… read more

Staying with Alistair, Karin, and their two boys was an amazing experience. It was my first workaway and I spent about two weeks with them. They were great about communication, setting expectations, and explaining what needed to get done around the property. The family is so nice. I felt really included, but they also gave me plenty of time to… read more
