Descripción
Our home located on a small working farm, approximately 5 - 10 minutes drive from Oamaru. We are a family of 2 adults and 3 young adult children (one is currently at home helping on farm and the other 2 visit occasionally). We rear and fatten bulls year round and dairy graze cows over winter, and have a small flock of sheep, plus chickens, ducks, Kune Kune pig, 3 x alpaca, 5 x farm dogs and 2 cats (the cats live inside our house).

Travellers need to be able to work unsupervised, have a current WHV and your own transport. Non-smokers/vapers only. You will need your own transport - there is no public transport available.
We are offering accommodation, basic breakfast (cereal/toast), lunch (usually things like sandwiches) and dinner (this is our main meal of the day) in exchange for 4 hours of work a day. Our meals are basic, I’m not a fancy cook and also don't cook gluten/dairy free. We are unable to cater to allergies. You have to provide your own snacks and drinks.
We only have 200GB wifi a month so are unable to provide unlimited access.

Alojamiento
The accommodation is within our home - the bedroom has a king bed. Shared bathroom facilities - shared with our 25 year old son who is working on farm over winter and occasionally our daughters who sometimes come home to visit for a short time.
We also provide you with basic breakfast provisions (cereal/toast) & lunch plus dinner at night. You have to supply your own snacks, & drinks.
Algo más...
We would love someone who is quiet and respectful, and non-smokers/vapers essential (although currently our son is home and he smokes outside but we are hoping he will quit as its a stinky filthy habit 🤪). Working Holiday Visa required. You will also need your own transport, especially if you want to sightsee around Oamaru. Our place is definitely not a party place, we are pretty quiet and tend to go to bed early/wake up early. If you like a simple lifestyle, the countryside and animals, then our place will suit you.
