O que é isso?
Oportunidades de intercâmbio cultural e aprendizado
We've hosted 11 au pairs from all over the world, over the last 10 years while we've had pre-school children. We've loved hosting them, and giving them a taste of life on a kiwi farm. Now our kids are all at school, we'd love to continue hosting travellers, sharing our lives with them and getting to know more about our world.

Ajuda
We are keen to host travellers for a cultural exchange, in which you could help out around our home with the kids, the gardens or general help, and stay with us for a week or so - the list seems pretty endless!

Algo mais...
Mt Taranaki is a beautiful place! You can climb it in the summer and ski there in the winter. The mountain is only 20 minutes drive from our farm. The beautiful surf beaches are also not far away. We imagine Workawayers would have lots of fun exploring our surroundings while they are with us. Ideally, you'll have your own transport as public transport is very limited in the country. There is an intercity bus stop in Eltham if needed, a five minute drive away.

Jen stayed with our family for two weeks and was fantastic! She fitted in so well with our chaos of a busy, farming household. Always smiling and happy to help. She related so well to our children and was a massive help on the farm, milking and anything else asked of her. I can strongly recommend Jen for any Workaway placement. She's fab!

I had an interesting and fun 2 weeks with Simon, Karen and their 5 kids. I was able to experience different tasks at the dairy farm - giving vaccinations to the calves, milking the cows, getting samples of the cows’ milk for testing and walking them to the shed - learnt a great deal about farming (it’s hard work!). The house was full of life,… read more

I loved being with the family and around the farm! Every day was different and it definitely never got bored with the five kids. I felt like a family member during my two weeks stay. They took me to every event, adventure and place. I learned a lot about farming and it was so interesting for me to see how it is at the other end of the world.… read more

We loved having Astrid to stay and would really recommend her to other host families! She was a huge help on the farm and around the house. The kids loved her and had lots of fun. It was interesting learning the difference in dairy farming between New Zealand and Switzerland. We wish you all the best for the rest of your travels and hope to see… read more

Felix is an absolute delight! From the moment he arrived, he fitted straight in with our family. He learnt how to milk cows and was a great help on the farm help during his stay. He was very helpful around the house and wonderful with the kids. We really enjoyed having Felix to stay with us for two weeks, and would warmly recommend him to any… read more

Who would have known what wonderful impact this journey to New Zealand would have on my life? I honestly had no idea - and now there's so much that I've learned and that I love and feel privileged to call part of my life and self.
Probably all creds for that go to my lovely, extraordinarily impulsive and special kiwi family in the heart of the… read more

Robert stayed with our family for about 10 days recently. He was a good house guest, cooking and keeping things tidy. He got on really well with our children and was particularly helpful with my son, spending a lot of time helping practise his speech. It was Robert's first work away experience and I think his stay would have benefited from us… read more

Natasja was amazing! She has recently stayed with us for 10 days and right from the moment we met her, she was a delight. She showed excellent initiative and nothing was too much trouble. She was very easy to have in our home and our kids loved her! She loved going down the farm, enjoyed attending our local dairy discussion group and fitted in… read more
