Description
We live in Nelson, close to the city on a quarter acre property. We have fruit trees, a veggie garden, chooks, and areas to sit in the garden to relax. We have a dog called Tui who loves people and her walks. We have adult children who live in Auckland and Christchurch, we enjoy hosting young travellers and are keen to help with any plans to see what this beautiful region has to offer. We are open to flexible working arrangements. Kyra is a primary school teacher, Pete is a retired engineer. We are originally from UK but have lived here since 2001.

Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre
We've lived in Nelson, the heart of the Top of the South, for over 20 years and know the area and what it has to offer really well. We've tramped/hiked through all the nearby national parks including Abel Tasman, Richmond Ranges and Marlborough Sounds - happy to share our experiences. We might be able to teach you a bit about bee keeping or gardening or you might be able to teach us!
Aide
There's always plenty to do around this 1/4 acre urban property. e.g. gardening, weeding, lawn mowing etc. Some property maintenance too - we currently need help to rebuild a fence. Help in and around the house is always appreciated. Then there's our property at Puponga which we try and visit every couple of weeks. No particular skills or experience necessary.
Langues parlées
Anglais: Courant
Hébergement
Double rooms are offered. The bathroom and shower are shared with whoever else might be staying. There is a separate toilet.
We have a collie lab/ cross dog, she does not go into the bedrooms and sleeps outside.
We're very health conscious so good healthy food is guaranteed. We're largely vegetarian but enjoy fish and meat sometimes too.

Nelson city is 15 minutes walk to town. We have bikes you can use too.
We can drop you at bus stations if you want to go to the Abel Tasman. We are up early in the morning, 6.30 and usually in bed by 9.30. We are happy for you to be later. We are easy going but enjoy a quiet life.

They also helped in the garden and house, they worked well as a team or individually and were happy to be shown how to do something. We enjoyed having them to stay.
We felt very welcome and loved every meal!
I helped Pete start building a fence. It was a good opportunity to learn and lend a hand. The hours were totally reasonable and Pete was good company.
They're both very nice people with a great home. The bed was incredibly comfortable and I had my own… read more
