  Descripción

  We have a beautiful natural setting here with forest, sheep, a stream and all just 10 minutes drive from central Whangārei.
  
  We moved onto this land in winter 2024 and so we are starting to create our organic vegetable garden, home orchards and many other fun projects from scratch. So if you have carpentry skills, gardening skills, design skills - this will be beneficial.
  
  We home school our 3 children and we believe that their teachers will come from the community - we are certainly not their only teachers. So if you have skills like drawing, music, teaching bitcoin anything really, and you are happy to be a 'teacher for a day' this will be very welcome.

  Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje

  We are from a mixed Swiss/Kiwi/Uk ancestory.
  Aria speaks some Schweizerdeutsch or at least understands some :-)
  We wish for our children (ages 7-13 years) to meet people from diverse backgrounds and be given opportunities to learn from many different 'teachers'.
  Join us on our journey as we create a beautiful haven and leave this land better than we found it.

  Espacio para aparcar autocaravanas

  You can park under our tall carport but be aware - our driveway is very steep and winding and gravel. If your campervan is not powerful you might not be able to get back up the driveway.

  Podría aceptar mascotas

  Female dogs or very chilled out male dogs are ok. Although very sweet-natured, our 2 year old border collie Bruno occasionally has had fights with other male dogs who have not been de-sexed. Otherwise he gets on brilliantly with most other dogs.
