Juliana & Tom

Hello!!
I’m going to attempt giving you an idea of who we are… as much as possible on written form.
We are a fun, connected and emotional intelligent family who live permanently on a dead end road in the Waitakere Ranges. We live inside a straw bale home, and manage another two homes in our property: a strawbale cottage and a tiny home; our property is surrounded by a growing food forest, bush, chickens and sheep. We love it here so much we don’t normally leave home unless we have a building job or social events.
For work, both Tom and Juli do online coaching, which is a modality I won’t try to explain here but basically we help singles and couples find their own answers and create change in their lives.
We also have some casual building and painting jobs (Tom is a builder, Juli a house painter).

Hazel is with us half the time, and with her mum the other half. She is an almost 10 year old beautiful, creative and sensitive girl, who absolutely loves animals and making craft.
Aspen, is our 2 year old daughter who enjoyes being outside the most, running around, dancing and role playing with her crochet animals. Oh, and eating.

Together, we make a fantastic family with lots of connection, a passion for playing games and adventures.

Our values and passions are: gardening, sustainability, playfulness, curiosity, connection, communication, relationships, creativity, building, honesty and adaptability.
