Description
Kia ora! I'm Steve, I live in the beautiful city of Whanganui. Whanganui is surrounded by beautiful nature, from surf beaches and the river, to many parks, walking trails and gardens. It is a well known art hub with studios and galleries dotted throughout. Whanganui has fantastic spots for food and drink, with small local distilleries, breweries, cafes, bakeries and coffee shops throughout - all with a very welcoming feel. It's central location makes for easy weekend getaways to Taranaki, Wellington, Taupo and the Tongariro/ Ruapehu national parks. We have a friendly small-town vibe with all the perks and facilities of a bigger city.

Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre
Whanganui really is a bustling cultural hub with something to offer everyone! Whether you're interested in learning to blow glass, paint, brew beer, garden, farm, volunteer at the local native bush reserve, learn about traditional Maori arts or the beautiful river... I'd be happy to help you build connections within the community, and with your days to yourself there is plenty of time for you to make the most of this.

I live in a beautiful old villa in Central Whanganui, within easy walking distance to town, the river, parks and markets.
I'd love a hand with cooking and tending to my home and garden (I (try to) grow a lot of my own fruit and veges so If you're a keen gardener that's a bonus).
I can cook and clean, but would really appreciate it if someone could kick me out of the kitchen and prepare different meals or share the duties with me. I have two friendly spoodle dogs, and one cat and they all love a cuddle so if you're an animal person you'd fit in well. The dogs also like walks and it would be great to have someone else to accompany them on their wandering!

Hébergement
You'll have your own bedroom and own bathroom (I have my own). I also have a little loft bedroom if needed. I live in a big old villa with a large garden. The house is heated by a wood burner (fireplace), and is very private.

I recently hosted a student who was on placement at the local hospital - he was working full time so his job was not to garden or cook but I really enjoyed having another friendly face around the home! I am happy for you to do your own thing in your own time, and am really very relaxed. If you're able to plan and cook the meals and give me a hand with a few things around the home, that'd be perfect! There is a fantastic new bus route that moves through the city and I do have a vehicle you may borrow from time to time and use to take the dogs out to the beach or reserve.
