Description
Liz and Kindra (women in their early 70's) live on the shores of the Haven estuary very near Nelson city in New Zealand. We welcome guests to enjoy our peaceful garden, with cycleway and parks nearby. We overlook the Kahurangi and Abel Tasman National Parks - about an hour way for walking, climbing, kayaking, swimming and enjoying the relaxed Nelson life. Nelson is an arty city with a famous Saturday Market - the local fare of fruit and vege, wine, bread, olive oils, cheeses, among a wide range of jewelry, potions and all manner of craft.
We warmly welcome those travelling or who just wanted a space to enjoy all the pleasures of Nelson, or people on the Te Araroa Trail.

Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre
We have a home full of beautiful books on a wide range of subjects. We have both been teachers in mostly adult contexts now, and have both travelled. We still work mostly part-time - counselling and training, and community-led development. We are always interested to meet people from other parts of the world.
Aide
Be willing to help in the garden: planting, weeding, pruning, composting. Enjoy making meals together and sharing knowledge of each others lives and culinary pleasures. General maintenance around a quite large suburban garden - including a small hive of bees.
