Gianluca and Sophie

Hello,

We are a professional couple from the UK currently travelling and spending time in New Zealand. We’ve just finished 6 months living in Wanaka in a beautiful shared home by the lake, and we’re now looking for a short-term rental in the area.

We own our own property in the UK and are very clean, respectful, and responsible tenants. We also have friends living locally, which is one of the reasons we’re keen to stay in this area. If we settle in well, we may be interested in extending our stay longer term.

While in New Zealand, we’ve been doing HelpX and most recently lived and worked on a wedding venue, helping with ground maintenance, bartending, serving, and cooking. We’d be more than happy to help with garden or property maintenance if required. We both love to cook and have Italian heritage, so good food is always involved!

Outside of work we are both very active and enjoy gym, beach days, golf, cycling and tennis.

We’re happy to arrange a video call or meet in person if that’s helpful. We arrive on the 6th of January but are flexible -/+10days.

Kind regards,
Gianluca & Sophie
