Descripción
We are a family of 4 that includes Philip and me and our two sons Reuben 25 and Jericho 27. Philip lives in a nursing care home.
We live in Sandringham, Auckland which is 15-20 minutes from city and beach by bike, which we mostly use for transport. We have some spare ones for workawayers to use. There is also bus and train.
I am vegetarian. My sons cook separately from me. I prefer to have a workaway who can cook vegetarian and is happy to share the cooking with me.
I need help with garden (permaculture) and inside house. At the moment I need someone with DIY skills.
I usually take singles, but if one of a couple has DIY skills I will be happy to have them.
We have had many workaways in the past and enjoy having guests from other countries to stay.

Auckland is the largest city in New Zealand. There are many beaches, museums, art galleries and a zoo to visit. There is a nearby island that is worth a day trip or overnight stay. Weather is not too hot or too cold.

Cindy is an impressive woman! There is absolutely nothing she can't handle. She has been our first Workaway host and we had a fantastic time in her home. She made us feel very welcomed and the work wasn't too hard. We especially enjoyed building the grapevine.
