Description
We are a small family who are devoted to reducing our environmental footprint by growing some of our own food and making our house more sustainable. We work and study in the fields of ecology and environmental economics.
We welcome workawayers into our family and make an effort to introduce you to the dry but beautiful Australian countryside and our historic gold rush region.
Our house is in Castlemaine, a short walk or ride from the centre of town in one direction and national park in the other. Melbourne is a pleasant one and a half hour train trip from Castlemaine station.

Our family stayed with Cassia, Warwick, Sylvie and Freya for a week and had a wonderful time. We worked on extending their veggie garden and helping to create more garden beds. The family was very welcoming to us, and even though we were a little overwhelming for the girls at first, by the end I was fortunate enough to walk around with Freya in my more
I stayed with Cass, Warwick, and their two daughters in early December 2011. Simply put, they're wonderful people. They treated me like a member of the family the moment I walked through the door - and gave rise to my newest obsession: Vegemite! I totally recommend paying them a visit if you're travelling through Melbourne. Oh, and did I mention more
It was a really great time! They gave us the feeling of a real home! The both little girls are so cute and we take them in our heart!
Cassia knows a lot and told us a lot of the different trees and plants. When you want to know something about spiders and snakes you have to ask Warwick because he knows all! We hope we can find a family like this more

Arnaud stayed with us in Melbourne. He was great company and his carpentry work was outstanding. We initially agreed to a stay of 1 week and ended up extending it to 3 weeks and would have him back in our house any time.
My stay at Warwick and Cassia's home was very great,

I'm still in contact with them and I think see them again before I come back in France

Will and Annelie stayed with us for 10 days and it was a great pleasure to have them in our house. They were good company, hard workers and fantastic with our 2 year old daughter who still misses them.
