    Kia ora!
    After years of being a big city dweller, I've spent the last six up here in paradise - 90 mins from Auckland.
    I work as an artist but am currently in the final throws of finishing my doctoral thesis - so, while I love people and usually love cooking for people, hosting, connecting and generally being fabulous lol, right now I'm terrible company because I'm pretty much 24-7 trying to meet this deadline.

    So at this point in time, I need to be left to work - but, if you're ok with entertaining yourselves, then I'd love to hear from you! I need support with keeping life afloat off the page - so if you're up for helping with the land and house, you'll have the most beautiful bedroom overlooking the sea, gorgeous quiet space in nature, a kitchen to cook whatever you love, kayaks, bush walks near by, all the lovely things to enjoy!

    There are great beaches near by, Pahi is a little fishing village so if you're into fishing it will be heaven, and Kauri bush walks are beautiful. While of course absolutely everyone is welcome, this is an LGBTQIA+ friendly home.

    Aide

    As I mentioned, I'm busy working just now - so need help from a few motivated people, with things like gardening, spring cleaning, landscaping, minor building projects / renovations, doing up an old caravan, packing up some house things, and fixing things.

    Stays of 4 days minimum ideally, and 2 weeks max usually (can be flexible when its the right fit). Looking for people who are motivated and independent, who are ok with me being busy and not having time to hang out right now, and who have good physical skills. I'll be away for a few days at a time at various points so then you'll have the place to yourselves.

    It would definitely be best if you have a car because we’re out of town, but if not I may be able to collect you from the Brynderwyn turn off bus stop 20 mins from here.
    There’s a small village with a cute cafe and farmers markets etc 6 mins drive from here. We’re also close to lots of great beaches and some of the most ancient Kauri forests in Aotearoa.
    In terms of what to do on your time off, there’s amazing natural places to explore near here. The Kaipara Harbour where we are is full of magical places to explore, but we’re also half way between the big natural, cultural and historic attractions of both east and west coast (30 mins drive in either direction). There are some boutique gallery / vineyard towns within an easy drive which are nice for a day trip too if that’s your thing. We are 90 mins from central Auckland - but also, this place here where we live and work, is really great for creativity, so if you’re chipping away at writing your novel or making music - it’s a heavenly spot to just hoole up and do that too.

    If this sounds like you, send me an email telling me about yourselves, and what your skills are. Also let me know how long you’d want to stay for and any questions you have for me - I'll do my best to answer promptly :)

    Cheers,
    Jack
