Would you give up your home for a life on the road? When Lynette and John Valk sold their three-bedroom home in Blenheim to live in a nine-metre motorhome and explore New Zealand, it was easier than they thought, and they don't regret a thing.

"We have seen so many hidden gems of New Zealand that we would never have seen if we were still living in a house," says Lynette.
Does the idea of selling up to make a big life change appeal to you? What changes would you like to make?

Does anyone need a house sitter some time over the next few months? She is a lovely person and very reliable and is happy to look after any pets (except cats unfortunately because she is allergic to cats). She’s been house and pet sitting before. She is a social worker and artist and great with people too. But I am biased of course. If you have a free house or need someone to look after your pets or plants while you are away, or know someone who does, please do let me know. We don’t have a spare room unfortunately otherwise she’ll be with us the whole time. Much thanks.
Dear neighbours, I am looking for some sweatpants/shirts for my DIY project - pouf from recycled fabric.
In total, I need probably 10-12 pieces in children size or 5-6 in adult size.
I am cutting the clothing, making 'yarn' for crocheting, so wear and tear is not a concern at all.… View moreDear neighbours, I am looking for some sweatpants/shirts for my DIY project - pouf from recycled fabric.
In total, I need probably 10-12 pieces in children size or 5-6 in adult size.
I am cutting the clothing, making 'yarn' for crocheting, so wear and tear is not a concern at all.
Children are especially good at tearing their sweatpants, so, maybe, you have some of those? Not good enough for donating because of holes in them, not good enough for rugs because they have too much synthetic fibre in it? I'll be glad to save them from the landfill.
I started the project because my son was tearing his sweatpants way too fast - but looks like one child-destroyer is not enough to produce enough pants-yarn.
Thanks!

It’s safe to say that overall rents have been rising. This is due to a range of drivers. We’ve seen the potential increase in operating costs for landlords, which are expected to increase, as well as boosts to wages and salary incomes from the Labour led government.
