    Description

    Hey people! Currently looking for a couple of painters or 3 to paint inside of shearers quarters which is clean and tidy, warm and fully furnished with wifi. Perfect for a couple who like their own space and are keen to stop for more than a few days
    In September/October
    It would also be great to have some social media help for my cafe such as videos, short movies awesome photos, funny clips and maybe drone footage from anyone who has those skills and gear.

    We live on a large farm at the bottom of the North Island. My husband runs the farm and I run a cafe on our farm which is very busy over the Summer months with tourists passing through to the beautiful Cape Palliser.
    We have 3 children 16 14and 12

    We love having backpackers come to our farm and have had many from all over the world over the years!
