after a post-covid break for a few years, I'm back on Workaway and keen to connect again with people who can help me maintain and improve a modest suburban home that is now on the market for sale in the tourist mecca of Rotorua...

Rotorua is a world-renowned tourist mecca famous for Maori cultural experiences, geothermal attractions, spas, hot pools, nature & wildlife parks, biking, marathons & outdoor adventures. I enjoy meeting people from all walks of life and providing guests with an opportunity to recharge, relax, and get out and about enjoying Rotorua in exchange for low-stress, easy tasks.
Ayuda
This modest self-contained accommodation is available in exchange for an equally modest amount of time - 2 hours per person per night, buy and prepare your own meals.
Flexible start/finish times to have full days free to enjoy being a tourist. There is a to-do list to maintain and present the property as well as possible in anticipation of a sale - housekeeping, lawn mowing, weeding, cleaning, repairs and maintenance. Select tasks that suit the weather and your interests and - the important part! - your abilities :) Suggestions welcomed also to make use of any specific skills or work experience you have if you see something you think needs doing that is not already on my to-do list.Idiomas hablados
Inglés: Fluido
Alojamiento
Self-contained exterior sleepout - small very basic kitchenette, king size bed, your own toilet and shower.
Algo más...
Please note I am quite introverted plus very busy with work commitments. If it is essential for you to spend lots of time being entertained by a chatty host family in an upmarket situation, this is definitely NOT the place for you. This homestay is ideal for self-reliant, independent travellers who value privacy and their own space for a good night's sleep.
In addition to the nearby Countdown supermarket, there are several takeaway food outlets plus a bus stop on Fairy Springs Road (SH5) a few minutes' walk away. Skyline Luge Gondola is visible from the driveway. I am on the north side of town, 3.5 kms from the Rotorua iSite bus depot.Un poco más de información

There is a 240V mains hook-up outlet on the exterior of the sleepout if you have an NZ Electrical Standards compliant power cable for your own vehicle. I now use Wireless Nation to have mobile internet data in my motorhome so this change means I no longer provide unlimited fibre wifi - sorry, BYO data.

As described by others, Caro is a wonderful host, and person.
Her work is very organized, so you can choose from a list of indoor, outdoor, or priority tasks that suit your skills, and do the work at your pace. This is a great place for people who thrive in self-directed work.

From the very first moment we met Caro we felt at home, she's sooo nice and friendly. We've come to Rotorua to run the Tarawera trail and couldn't hope for a best home to prepare: amazing room, nice atmosphere, structured to-do list (she has a list of task, so helpful!), and cheering (are you crazy? why run… read more
