  Descrição

  We are a relaxed Kiwi/German couple on a 2.5 ha lifestyle block in Buccleuch, with 3 cats (wild cats who seem to have adopted us) and a handful of sheep. We are only a stone throw away from the Hakatere Conservation Area in Mid Canterbury and Mt Hutt (The area lies between the Rakaia River and the Rangitata River and the highlight of the area being the many beautiful high-country lakes). We live in one of the oldest houses in the district and have plenty of room for visitors.

  Oportunidades de intercâmbio cultural e aprendizado

  Being a mixed cultural household (Gudrun from Germany and John from NZ), we understand travelling and learning about the host country. We also understand that it is sometimes good to take stock about the recent experiences. While we are away during the day you would have peace and quiet and at night we are happy sitting and chatting over dinner.

  Ajuda

  Both working away from our home, we are mostly looking for help with our garden (weeding, lawn mowing or basic trimming) and household. Being able to cook basic meals (or as fancy as you like) would be great and baking is always welcome. We also have sheep and cattle on a different property where some assistance is needed at times. Depending on skill level there could be fencing or small maintenance tasks but that is not expected.
  Help hours are flexible but in general 4-5 hours/ 5 days week.

  Algo mais...

  Living rural with no public transport, a car is of advantage. Pick up in Ashburton can be arranged on workdays. Numerous walks are close by and we are happy to help with transport to some of the local walks. Mt Somers is 1688m high and a challenging walk but plenty of less strenuous options are available.
