Descripción
We are a young married farming couple, living in the Deep South of New Zealand. We live on a 2ha lifestyle block, with our dogs, cat, 3 goats, and some calves. Situated just 15 minutes from Bluff and Invercargill. Endless opportunities for adventure, with beaches, native bush walks and local amenities within 15-30minute drives from the property.
We are looking for workawayers to help on our property doing gardening, planting and general home maintenance. This being there is an opportunity for you to watch and learn about our dairy operations, if interested, but you are not expected to work on farm.
For those interested in horses, there are 3 horses available to take for treks
You'll be able to enjoy your working stay holiday in a fully self-contained private unit on the property or in our additional rooms available in the main house. -

Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje
We have occasional gatherings with the local farming community (both socially and for learning) and regular family dinners/activities. We are both hands-on people who are happy to teach most farming/DIY-related things and willing to learn ourselves how other things are done in other cultures.

Algo más...
On time off or days away, we are only a short distance from many beautiful adventures in the south.
You could take a short ferry ride or flight to Stewart Island, a day trip or weekend away to spectacular Fiordland, or the Lakes District, or go for various bush walks and experience local flora and fauna in the beautiful Catlins. If you want to stay more local to town, Invercargill has plenty to offer: Beaches, bush walks and hikes, dining, shopping, and many other recreational activities. -

Mis animales / mascotas
Pikachu (5 meses)
Pikachu is the newest member of our family, and already thinks she runs the show.
Trevor, Gary and Patrick
Maple (1 año)
Maple is a St Bernard. She's big, she's fluffy, and playful.
A bit timid at first, but as soon as she knows you're there to pat and cuddle her, she won't leave you alone
Zara (8 años)
Zara is an Vizsla, English Pointer Cross. She was a working dog trained for pest control, but is now enjoying the retired lifestyle, chasing flies and sunbathing.
She is not the most loyal dog as she will go to anyone offering pats or food.

She slotted into our household and routine, like she'd always been there. She eager to help in any task we gave her, and completed all jobs to an excellent standard. Her English language skills were that of a native English speaker. She was tidy, well mannered, and an all around joy to have … read more
They were quick in getting their tasks completed to a great standard.
They both cooked us some wonderful Vietnamese meals, and left the property very clean and tidy.
