Looking for housing

I am a reliable, kind and tidy female, looking for accommodation from September 15th 2025 to April 2026. I am open to a room in a shared house, self contained suite, one bedroom home, or tiny home/cabin situation. I am used to off grid living with an outhouse and outdoor shower. Though it is my preference for a home with all indoor amenities, I am flexible. Non smoking/drinking/partying is a must. I am experienced with farm animals of all sorts and would be happy to be living on a farm and helping take care of the animals. I am also an experienced childcare provider and camp instructor.

I have a fixed term job as a Horse trekking guide during this time frame, so I will have a steady income. 

contact me through email nikoyafleur@gmail.com, or text 250-221-8558 (canadian number)

Thank you,

Nikoya

ON THE HUNT

Looking for long term, pet-friendly rental for a couple and our well-behaved rescue cat.

I personally have been a resident in Queenstown for five years, and have been an avid supporter of the GY races since then!

My partner, a sheep shearer and farmer, and I, a horse physio and trainer, are to moving GY in September, with a job lined up ready to go!

Looking for anything really, but would love our own space. We are both very handy people so will take loving care of our new home!!

Landlord references available too, if you like!

SEWING AND MENDING WORKSHOP

Have a dress to mend or alter, or a pair of pants you never figured out how to finish properly?

Jess and Max are putting the word out that they will be organising a sewing and mending workshop, open to all, on Saturday 26 of July during the day. This event will be free to attend, with a Koha for people feeling generous. There will be sewing machines available but you are welcome to bring your own, and we will be covering topics like edge finishings, taking in/out a garment, putting in a zip with a fly, mending buttons/buttonholes, patching and much more. .

More details on location/times to follow soon.

Also, Maxence is open for private sewing tutoring from 23/07 till 03/08 included ; contact her directly at 02 040 702266 if you'd like to arrange a session. 

Looking forward to seeing you all!

ON THE HUNT

On the hunt for a place to live

I’ve been living here for a year and a half. A single room/place, or I have some mates who I can share a place with as well, if needed. Long term is preferred but will be grateful for somewhere warm for the winter. Can move in anytime. Even better if you have some animals to love.

My number is 021 466 059, please get in touch if anything comes up.

Thanks. Riley.
