Description
Hi my name is Denise and my home is in Oratia New Zealand. My property is nestled in established native bush, NZs rainforest full of native birds. I am 15 mins away from beautiful West Coast beaches and the Waitakere Rangers 16000 hectares of ancient forest and 250 km of bush tracks. Travellers can have space and comfort with your own room, bathroom, lounge and deck or share communal space upstairs with me as you please. With your help my vision is to create a gentle space, a place that nurtures people as much as it has been nurtured during its conception.
I have been working in nursing, counselling and a variety of alternative therapies for over 34 years and celebrate connecting with people,...

Larry was at the end of his trip and yet he still had the energy to contribute with awesome tiling. It was a hard job and Larry took great care to do a really professional job. He is an honest hard worker with a good sense of humour. Good luck Larry with your travels.
