As someone who plans to settle in New Zealand in the near future, this video is just the exact visualization of my dream-quiet, peaceful, farm life. Thanks for this video, truly made me happy! (Sending support from the Philippines)
I really enjoyed this video. You are so lucky to be stranded in such a beautiful place during this pandemic. The girls are really able to learn so much with all the different experiences available to them.
Lived in Marlborough for 25+ years. If you were going to be living in Rai Valley during winter, you would definitely want the warmest clothes you could get.
What an amazing place everything is just a walk or a short drive to hidden treasures, lol the girls "Eww she's eating it" 😂pest control at work and the cows are saying "moooove🐄 that fence" 😂 I love coming on your adventures 👏🏾fantastic video.
I used to live on a farm in a valley like that.. It's cooler in the valley then in the open plains because the mountains cut down your sunshine time one or two hours a day..
@@GrowingUpWithoutBorders Hello to Tyler as well. Such a Beautiful Awesome Family. Always a breath of fresh air.... Really Sweeeeeeet. Blessings to you all ALWAYS... from Pittsburgh. Keep up the GREAT VIDEOS. Please and Thank You. XO !!!
I'm stoked the whānau are having unique experiences money won't buy. Working and living on a farm is a skill set few will learn. Bare feet too! That's really living the life. Wow. Subtle way of telling your neighbours to leave. Working farm dog doing a good job. Possum meat to supplement that yuk kibble. Excellent share. Thank you.
Those were Muscovy Ducks not Geese. Sometimes it seems that every other garden in NZ has a lemon tree. Citrus do need a little chilling, only most don't like frost much. NZ is mostly warm-temperate so we can grow quite a few sub-tropicals but not to commercial quality. Good enough for the home garden. I hope you got to Pelorus Bridge about 10kms away, it's quite pretty with the Beech forest.
Not that far from here, (Nelson Lakes) I've been through the Rai valley a number of times, take a dinghy out in the sounds which isn't far from there and catch some blue cod. delish!
When Chloe said "They've got two rabbits in there" I knew exactly why she was barefoot. The absolute innocence and joy in her voice said she does not feel the cold.
Theres nothing like waking up in a countryside setting in NZ on a sunny winters morning its seems to revitalise the spirit. Also going barefoot puts us back back in contact with the earths vibrations, we werent meant to wear shoes as a species its good to let the feat breathe, also loved the honesty box for the wild honey, see less and less honesty boxes these days. Still looking forward to your "announcement" thats meant to be coming 😉
Next time, go off track and into some bush. Especially if you get another farm house like the Rai! NZ is super safe, the most dangerous thing in the bush is deer and pigs! Which usually run away when they hear humans.
Hey guys beautiful vlog, usually your content is more about fancy city lights, restaurants and the lifestyle of that country and yet here you are living the new zealand dream, well done I'm so jealous😎🇳🇿❤️
Keep an eye out for feijoa fruit trees on your travels. The trees come into fruition around late Autumn/early winter if I remember rightly. My all time favourite. (superripe=supers weet)
I'm from Sri Lanka . I love your vedios and somtimes Ilive there. Another thing is I really happy about your contents and love it. I wish your Good luck and all the best Love you guys .....
Out of all your video's that iv'e watched when iv'e had the chance, i can honestly say that this was my favourite. - everything about it i enjoyed - from the first person up in the morning (peaceful time alone) feeding the animal's moment.....to the dog (after a bath) killing a possum.....even the funny neighbour story i enjoyed - anyway, "I have to go"....and i mean i really do have to go (Lol).
Oh!!! We just got your joke at the end of this comment. I really have to go. It took us a few reads before we got it. 😂😂So glad you enjoyed our day to day life. We'll have to pump out more like this.
Hey guys, what a treat for lockdown in Auckland for a week. Looks like you all had a great time in Rai Valley. Greetings from Helensville. New Zealand.
I would say you Guys have had your best Kiwi experience so far. What an amazing property and you seemed to revel in it. Wellington next? Why not stay in the Mainland?
Hi I know Rai valley , my dad has a holiday home in the Pelourous sounds, we take a road out of Rai valley to get there . The Pelourous river is near and they filmed the scene with the barrels going down the river there in the Hobbit :) my dad lives in Tahunanui beach too.At the moment in February its summer and nice and warm
Hi country girls! Have you ever thought of visiting 'How to Dad'? Here's one of his latest videos: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-7ETgmUqdH1Y.html
That place is just right for you guys, I think you should stay there. Those chooks better start laying more eggs soon too, or they'll end up as chicken soup.
HI, Help me please . I want to go to New Zealand on work permit visa now I have a physical problem Epilepsy. I can live like a normal person and work I have no problem but I have to take my medicine constantly without taking medicine I have epilepsy in my sleep which means I have a seizure for a few seconds now can I go to New Zealand with this problem What? And will they allow me to stay in New Zealand after I find out about my problem at New Zealand Medical? Please let me know I would be benefitted. Thank you
Possum must have been sick. They do not come out in daylight normally. Would not have been chasing her, more like scurrying for cover, scared. They are quite blind.
Love your vids, just wondering why they are so far out time/season wise? Love how you are starting to embrace the kiwi lifestyle, nothing better than going barefoot

Carrying the rabbit by having its body on your lower arm with its butt on your body. It would give the rabbit some area to anchor and be secured. This kind of lifestyle of large area of land, and house in the middle of greenery is my dream.
@@GrowingUpWithoutBorders Indeed. City life is too crazy. I’m currently in Asia and there are way too many people. It is a rat race region. Though I would like to head back to America or to Europe for better living environment. See how it goes! I reckon there are plenty of space in Canada, just like New Zealand
i know from experience that leaving NZ will take its toll, cloe will miss the organic food and less chemicals in other products ,,the other girls will miss their friends they have made, you your self and your hubby will miss the security and the freedom basically 1 year in NZ has been worse than covid kia kaha
Yes! We have fallen in love with the country and the people here ♥️ We are staying at a home now with all kinds of fruit trees in the garden. 🍎🍑🍊🍋🫒🍇🍅 and more ... Amazing!
@@GrowingUpWithoutBorders ok here is a thought ,apply for an extended visa through tourism nz ,your hubby has an internet company and you and your girls are the pushing tourism to the world i dare say my brother would have cloe in the shop for a day ,.as he also employs a chef- tell him to give me a ring lol i think he would enjoy the coverage
