Oportunidades de intercâmbio cultural e aprendizado
We live on a large sheep and beef farm, so if you want the opportunity to experience the workings of a real NZ farm. We have lots of pets you can hang out with (sheep, calves, pigs, horses and ponies). You can go on farm walks, ride a horse or just relax in the afternoons taking in the view. Visit one of the local beaches, borrowing a surfboard or fishing rod.
I am also a primary school teacher part-time at the local school so opportunities to attend school activities or even visit are possible.
Projetos que envolvem crianças

Ajuda
Most help usually in and around the garden, planting, weeding, cutting back and general garden maintenance. If weather isn't great outside, then help in the house and a bit of painting.
Idiomas
Inglês: Fluente
Acomodação
Own bedroom in family house with a queen bed. Three meals a day in return for 4 hours work in the morning, help yourself to breakfast and lunch and then I am happy to cook dinner unless you wish to.
Algo mais...
Own transport is a must, as we are 45minutes from the main city Gisborne and there is no public transport and this allows you to explore what the area has to offer. The beautiful beaches of the East Coast are only minutes away, take a swim, surf or fish. The famous Tolaga Bay wharf is also only a 5 minute drive where you can take a walk down or if feeling brave jump off. Also, there is the Cooks Cove walk, which takes in a mixture of farmland and native bush not to mention views of the coast and sea.

Celine was a very kind person who not only worked hard while she was here, but easily fitted into family life.

Celine planned on being here 3 days then housesitting for a week while we were away and feeding animals. However, lockdown hit, so she was stuck here for another 3 weeks. During this time she spread a lot of mulch on my garden and on… read more

I had such a nice experience staying with this kindhearted family in a beautiful farm with stunning views. Very pleasant and relaxing time.

So all in all I… read more

Ande stayed with us for one week. He was extremely easy to have to stay, being polite, and punctual and happy to do dishes, thank you! He worked independently painting fences for us. We loved how Ande made the most of his time here exploring the area. Best of luck with the rest of your travels, the family

After 5 months travelling, I could not have asked for better place to settle down for a while than this family and this amazing place. Work was not hard at all and I had all my afternoons free.

Marlein stayed with us for over 2 weeks after only planning on staying 3 days which was lucky for us! In that time she completed a range of projects, from weeding, water blasting and sanding to painting. She was always happy to give anything a go with a smile.

It was lovey having Ivana to stay, even for a short time. She was super cheerful and happy to get stuck into whatever jobs I gave her. From cleaning the outside of the house, to gardening and a bit of sanding, it was no problem. She was very patient with my kids in the afternoon entertaining them with numerous board games. Safe and happy travels.… read more

Thank you so much Nicola for taking my friend and me on such a short notice. I wish I could have stayed longer because the farm, your house and family were all beautiful and I had an amazing time. Work was easy and fun, and the rest of the time we spent surfing, playing board games and playing with puppies. Hope to come visit you guys soon!

We'll never forget our first "workaway" experience. The family is very kindly and live on a place like in paradise. A very nice house with great view over farmland down to the sea with beautiful sunset. The work was very varied and we could learn some new skills. We enjoyed the good meals and fresh products we could eat always. Also the free… read more

I couldnt have asked for better help than Silvan & Melanie. They were hard working, organised and polite. Mostly they worked outside performing garden maintenance, but also painting when it was too wet. They were active in their afternoons off exploring the local area. Anyone who has these 2 to stay would be very lucky. All the best on your… read more
