Description
We are a belgian family (French speaking) of four, with 2 teenages children, and a dog :-)
All passionnated in our own fields (permaculture, soil, river ecology, wetland, insects, crafting,... and balls ;-)).
Our desire is to learn, to try and then to be able to pass on what we have learned in our quest for a more resilient life.
We welcome some help of course, but mainly would like to develop exchanges.
On the agenda for this spring: sowing, weeding, planting, and making compost... If you'd like to learn about gardening, please come and lend a hand in exchange for a cosy room and shared meals :-)

Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre
After our own travelling experience, we decided to make New Zealand our home, coming from Belgium. Now settled in a rural area with a few bounding obligations (vege garden, animals,...) we still would like to discover the world, but through our guests. We can offer some french conversations, and lots of stories about Belgium (we so miss our cheese and beer that we are in the learning process of making our own :-)).

Aide
We have a well diversified vege garden, an established orchard, chooks and sheeps, as well as some bush and a wetland to take care of. Lots of opportunities to help us, either with Marlene, doing compost, making natural fertilisers, weeding, harvesting,... or with Seb, taking care of the natives and helping developing our wetland.

We are lucky enough to have the beautiful Kahurangi National Park as well as the Abel Tasman National Park at our back door, and amongst the best walks available within a 30 minutes drive. We also have the river just accross the road for a quick refreshing jump in the summer, and are 10 minutes by car from Motueka and the sea, and 1 hour from Nelson.

But more than that, they were really friendly, and we had a really great time sharing our daily life with them.
