Descripción
My home and pottery studio are just on the edge of Ngunguru on the beautiful Tutukaka Coast.
I'm a youngish pensioner, creating and selling my work as well as running pottery workshops.
I had Volunteers here for many years and always loved the mutual exchange in so many ways with working guests from different cultures - plus they helped me create a wonderful garden and restored wetland from what was one acre of bare land.
I have recently parked a tiny house parked amongst the kahikatea trees quite separate from my dwelling and self-contained with a small kitchen and bathroom/shower; I now feel I can offer some choice accommodation in exchange for practical help around the place - mostly this would in the way of garden and building maintenance.

Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje
Originally from the Netherlands I immigrated to Aotearoa in the seventies.
I've lived in Ngunguru for 30 years now and simply can't imagine a better place to be.
It's a beautiful stretch of coast with so many different beaches, great for walks, kayaking snorkeling and diving (the Poor Knights islands!) - and from my place just a short walk to the river for a swim on a hot summer day..
I'm firmly embedded in this wonderful community around here - our little valley has a tribe of kids keeping things lively too.
Ayuda
I have a few weed patches I'd like to tackle, incl. honeysuckle vine and papyrus - some experience with a weedeater and my small chainsaw would be a bonus(but not mandatory)..due to an injury I haven't been able to do as much as I'd like.
Some outside painting, sprucing up the chook run etc.

Her home is an oasis of peace, with all those flowers and bird sounds.
The phone doesn't get much reception and that is a good thing to be able to experience more of reality and everything around you.
