Looking for land to lease for a tiny house on wheels

Sonja from Upper Moutere

Dear neighbours,

My name is Sonja and I am looking for a piece of land to lease for my tiny house on wheels. I will be living in and working from the tiny house - so having good cellphone coverage (i.e. 4G Wireless for Internet access) is essential.

Dear neighbours,

My name is Sonja and I am looking for a piece of land to lease for my tiny house on wheels. I will be living in and working from the tiny house - so having good cellphone coverage (i.e. 4G Wireless for Internet access) is essential.

I need to be able to connect to power and water and I have a composting toilet. I will need an area for recycling compost. I would also love a little garden and/or vege patch.

The tiny house is 2.5m x 7.3m (9m including the drawbar). The piece of land needs to be reasonably flat with access to a vehicle with long trailer.

I am quiet and considerate but also like socialising. In my spare time I play table tennis, do waka ama, boot camp and love the outdoors.

My tiny house will arrive from the North Island (where it is currently being build) on 2nd October so I am looking to move on to the land that day.

Please let me know if you know or hear of a place that would be suitable for my tiny house and myself.

You can contact me on 021 176 3741 or sonja.adamek@yahoo.com.

I have been renting a tiny house on wheels for the last year and am happy to provide references from the land owners.

Cheers,

Sonja

“What would you do if you had one chance to turn your life around? Would you steal half a million dollars if nobody in the world would ever know?” This amazing "shot on an iPhone" feature, filmed entirely at the BP station in Motueka, continues to rack up international film festival acceptances and wins.

Three 20-something friends get some much-needed hang time when a cancelled wedding sees them spend a long weekend together on a beautiful vineyard… with all the wine intended for the wedding … the runaway bride’s crazy uncle ... and a beautiful young woman bringing a little sexual healing to the jilted groom. A wine-fueled comedy from NZ writer/ director Casey Zilbert and producer Steve Barr featuring our own stunning Marlborough wine region. Get your tickets at: suter.statecinemas.co.nz...

Roses - FREE!

Lori from Richmond

I have a reasonable amount of well established Roses of various types in my garden, and I'm planning to dig them all out (not my type of thing).
It seems a shame to just dump them - so if anyone would like them, feel free to come and dig them out!

It seems a shame to just dump them - so if anyone would like them, feel free to come and dig them out!
I will try to take photos, but as they aren't in bloom, not sure what you can tell about them other than they have thorns that hurt :)
Update - seems I have enough takers - I will mark as taken once all are dug up
