We require 2 people who are self motivated and fun. We have gardens that require some love, assistance with general building and cleaning. We live beside the river, have a variety of crafts for use and the environment is peaceful and fun. Mangaweka is a small community with lots of young people, some with small families - so extra money could be made with evening childcare. We can provide accommodation and meals in exchange for 4-5hrs per day. Prefer if you stay at least 5 days.

We live on our sheep and beef hill country farm, near the Ruahine Ranges. It is 35-40 minutes to the closest towns (Taihape and Feilding). We have wireless satellite internet, but no cellphone coverage, although this is available from the nearest hilltop. It is approx 1hr 40mins to to the Ski slopes and two hours to Lake Taupo. Fly Fishing in the local river is just 10 minutes away.
Depending on your skills base we require help with childcare, cooking, cleaning, gardening, painting, odd jobs, weed/pest control, scrub cutting, farm work. And depending on the work you end up doing some of it might be paid - we are not totally into slave labour :)
We have a cat and dogs and 2 young children - (6) and (4) We do eat meat most nights. Would prefer non-smokers and people wanting to stay for a minimum of 5 days (but this is flexible).

Cat and house sitting. Available from 13 April (4 weeks minimum stay)
Whanganui is on the west coast of the North Island about half way between New Plymouth and Wellington. There are quite a lot of things to do in the area and it is a good base for exploring from. Our property is set on a big garden, on the outskirts of the city (so own transport is important). The setting is semi-rural, quiet and relaxing. It is quiet but our adult children and previous back packers have all loved staying here - it is a great place to relax and unwind at.
We are usually away for at least three nights during the week but sometimes for the whole week and/or weekend. You are free to go away (or stay) when we are home. In return for free private accommodation in a fully self contained furnished "studio style" unit you would need to look after our two very spoilt cats and free range chickens, mow lawns, clean the house and carry out some general duties (total 20 hours light duties per week)....

Inspired to join Helpx from my sister who is also host in Auckland. I am a working professional who is at work during the day living with my 19yr old son.
We are looking for a couple who can assist us with all household duties, including cooking dinners and especially the gardens which is the main project.
Ask 4hrs a day in lieu for meals and accommodation, wireless internet available, bus stop just out the door.
We live 20mins walk to the central city and within 5mins to the popular Kowhai Park which is next to the Whanganui river also the weekly saturday market.
We love having guests in our home and sharing meals in the evening. Look forward to hearing from you.
