Description
We live in Te Anau, right on the doorstep of Fiordland National Park.
We have 2 children Rita 11 and Austen 8. We run a charter boat business in Dusky Sound and absolutely love the outdoors.
We try and grow as much produce as possible on our lifestyle block using organic principles, we also grow beef and lamb and hunt for wild meat/fish as often as we can. We have had several volunteers come and stay with us over the years and love the cultural exchange and the opportunity to learn about other peoples culture and food. We can only host 1 person at a time. -

Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre
We are true blue kiwis and enjoy sharing history and knowledge about New Zealand. I am a passionate cook/chef so if you wish to learn about baking sourdough bread or making as much as possible from scratch I am very happy to share.

Aide
We have 2 young children, a 11 and 8 year old and a dog. We are looking for someone to assist with gardening and general maintenance around our home and on our small farm. There is also an element of childcare and home help. There would be plenty of time for you to head off and explore Fiordland, or join us on family adventures.

The work was fair and not difficult. I helped Katherine feed the farm animals, did some weeding, and spread mulch to prepare the plants for winter. I also looked after the children for a day — they are wonderful and full of energy!

We could not recommend Nina more highly.
Andy stayed for approximately 3 weeks, he helped out in the garden, with the kids and on the farm with some projects. Andy was respectful, clean and tidy and best of all cooked delicious meals for the family.

She took me in when I had nowhere to go and no idea what to do, after I got into an accident with my beloved van that had been my home on wheels until that point.
