[sorry not available till August as we already have Helpx people staying.]

We are middle aged, fit couple who enjoy meeting people from around the world. It would be a bonus to have assistance of 4 hours a day as we are often busy and our lovely house and section has lots of challenges.

We live close to Wellington CBD, the Capital of New Zealand. There is good transport. We live 10 minutes by road to the Wellington railway station and the Cook Strait Ferry to/from the South Island (Interislander). [We will try and pick up helpers.] We live in the suburb of Johnsonville which is 20 minutes by rail (on a scenic line) to the city. Johnsonville has its own shopping centre.

We can host one person or a couple, in a double bed.

Our section has over 200 trees and shrubs with nice lawns. It is a half acre, or 0.2 hectors. There are always tasks to do depending on one's skills, gardening, weeding, cutting hedges, mulching, washing the house or cars, windows, home maintenan... more inside

We live on the hills alongside the Hutt Valley near Wellington. We have pleasant gardens in need of work, and we would also like some help to springclean. If you enjoy cooking, we are always interested to try something new.

We are currently developing organic/ permaculture gardens, compost toilets and upgrading the facilities. Help is needed for general gardening, maintenance, cleaning, building, and we are also open to people coming and putting their ideas into fruition. Building/ carpentry skills would be ideal!!! Good wholesome food, (and laughter) is abundant in our household and we welcome those interested in sharing in this.

Our property runs along the Otaki River with bushwalks, a waterfall and native birds everywhere. You will need to like dogs too as we have two that are very friendly. We are close to some of the most beautiful walks in the Tararua Ran... more inside

Ross and I have 3 boys, 17,14 and 11. We all love to travel as we love our OE (overseas experience). Now we are in need of an extra pair of hands for cleaning. We live in a lovely area, near the beach. This is an hour north of Wellington and there is a train just 4 klm away that goes there regularly. Over the garage is an apartment which is where our visitors or helpx visitors can stay so you have plenty of room to yourself - even a gym and sauna. Also, in the last photo,you can see the artifical turf we have built for our boys to practice their football skills. We are not the greatest of cooks so we often eat Subway for lunch,if you enjoy that, you can join in with us. We are looking for the help, for someone who has a teaching background to help with our youngest son who is 12- if you are into teaching children please email us. Look forward to meeting you

Otaki is 1 hour north of Wellington by car on the Kapiti coast with its great beaches and bush. We live in a rural setting about 2km from the main state highway 1.

Our place is a specialist heritage rose nursery (all of our roses are grown from cuttings in planter bags and supplied by mail order all year round). We also propagate other plants from our 3 acre country garden (which is open to the public). We have a small gift shop and sell pottery and garden art. We also have workshops on gardening and arts/crafts in our new barn. We have a 4 acre run down pear orchard. We also have a few beef cattle, 6 chickens, 3 bantams, 6 ducks plus ducklings and chicks and a small dog. You would be sharing our beautiful heritage home built in the 1890s. Most of the house has been renovated - just the study to go.

Work involves gardening, weeding in the nursery, and at certain times of year, helping with rose cuttings (June/July), mulching the garden (Sept), potting up rooted rose cuttings (... more inside

Just a brief message to the 2 friendly helpers who contacted me on my cell phone approximately 5 days ago.I have lost my phone a few days ago so wont be able to reply.
We have had a variety of wonderful helpers stay with us over the past 4 month assisting us with the total transformation of our place.We are currently taking a well deserved break but will be looking for one or two helpers in June approximately for one week.
we are a family of 2 at the moment and live 20 min away from Wellington.
Our place is 20 min by car from the Interisland Ferry terminal and 30 min from Wellington airport. .
Skills required are varied and I feel most people would be reasonably good at them .
I have been in the process of renovating our home over the past 2 years so some in and out door painting skills would come in handy too.
We used to have pets and a pony (not in our garden though)at some point but are without animals at the moment .
We live on a quarter acre section ,not far from a t... more inside
