Found this company that are hiring Guides for their walks http://www.ultimatehikes.co.nz/ - looks like my kind of thing, although I'm dangerously under-qualified. Bearing that in mind am off to do a 2 day First Aid course with St John Ambulance before I leave. I just pray I dont have to give mouth to mouth to some rubber doll. Eeeep!
