Description

Travel update: heading to Westport area from Nelson and then to Christchurch by mid March

We’re a British/Czech couple taking a year out from life in busy Europe to work in and explore New Zealand. We’ve been here since spring 2024 (though this is Sophie’s second visit!) and have really fallen in love with the kiwi culture and landscapes. We’re ideally looking to stay somewhere for at least couple of weeks if things work out, but open to shorter stays too :) We’re looking to bring our skills to help out on farming, environmental and building/maintenance projects. We are lovers of nature, animals, meeting new people and always open to new adventures!

Quelles sont vos compétences ?

Sophie works in landscape design and gardening and has a keen interest in permaculture (sustainable design). Before travelling she had an awesome job in London planting trees with school kids and volunteers. She now teaches garden design and horticulture online but is still always learning more herself. She loves practical work and is keen to learn more DIY skills too.

Adam has worked in construction his whole career, starting with scaffolding before getting into construction management. He has plenty of knowledge and practical skills to help with building work and property maintenance. He loves working outside, being in touch with animals and also helping Sophie with gardening. He can drive and use a wide range of vehicles and tools (even a crane!)

We both have a strong work ethic, enjoy being helpful and are conscientious with everything we do. We think we’re pretty good cooks, and love a good conversation round the dinner table too :)

Autres infos...

We love all creative and outdoor pursuits. Sophie plays guitar and piano, sings and writes comedy songs, paints and draws. Adam’s secret skills are juggling and creative writing. We recently got the hang of canoeing and had a great time surviving the rapids on the Whanganui river! We’re hoping to climb lots more mountains in New Zealand too.
