Description
We are a family of 3 living in Nelson central. Over the last four years we have been renovating our house and developing the garden. Vanya has a woodworking workshop in our garage, Anne teaches part time and Ronan works on the ground for Air New Zealand and plans to become a pilot. Our combined hobbies include tennis, golf, karate, surfing, reading, gardening, woodworking, swimming in summer and qigong. We are non-smokers.
Our garden studio is a newly renovated separate space to our house and it can accommodate two people comfortably. It has a queen size bed and a loft with a single bed. It is a charming, comfortable space with a kitchenette and bathroom with shower. You will share some meals with us as well as cook your own meals in the studio. We will provide all of your food. There is internet access in the studio. Our pets are the bees in the beehive and the worms in the worm farm!
Nelson is a lovely town with so much to do right on our doorstep. We live at the bottom of the mountain biking tracks, close to the sea and right in town! In summer, we enjoy visits to the beach for swimming, paddle boarding and picnicking.
Whilst we not new to hosting helpers. For 8 years we hosted over 100 Wooffers on our organic avocado orchard in Northland. We value connecting with and having shared experiences with young people from around the world.
We would love to hear from anyone who would like to spend some time in Nelson helping us with our projects.
We look forward to meeting you.
Anne, Vanya and Ronan

We are new to Nelson and have had 10 years experience hosting Wwoofers on our last property which was an organic avocado orchard in Northland aswell as a season here in Nelson. We enjoy having good conversations and shared meals and experiences with our helpers. We value people’s stories and learning about different cultures. We are still in touch with many of our previous helpers.
