  Description

  Hello future friends. Welcome to our page. We are a happy, conscious couple. We are both originally from the UK, met in Sydney many moons later and moved in April last year, to live in nature's paradise, on the Mid North Coast of NSW.
  
  Our names are Lisa and James and we live on a 2 and a half acre parcel of land. It is home to an abundance of birdlife and marsupials roaming freely as they feed and enjoy the 200+ mature colourful shrubs and trees. Our intention is to continue adding to the diversity, improving the top soil for the land to flourish here and creating a sanctuary of health and wellbeing for all who visit. We have a pyramid to sit and meditate in, a tree tent, hammock, sauna, plunge pool and ice bath in summer. We offer yoga, breathwork and a deepening into knowing your true nature for those that are on a spiritual path. This is no ordinary farm stay and as such we are selective. If you are hard working and want to help us in our sustainability goals of food generation and supporting the flourishing of all life including your own then come be a part of something magical.
  
  We have had friends and workaways help us create a terraced garden around our natural eco system pool, build and fill 12 raised garden beds for organic food sufficiency, plant a lily pilly privacy hedge, prune hedges, collect wood and weeding to name a few. To keep the space beautiful requires many hands and we would love it if you feel called to contribute as part of your travels.
  
  Our request is to host a couple . Two friends if they are comfortable sharing a double bed and even 3 people with one person sleeping in the tree tent.
  
  We have a self contained bus with cooker and fridge, shower/toilet, comfy double bed, internet and cosy living space, suitable for an intimate couple to stay with us. We’ll supply simple and healthy breakfast ingredients and tea supplies for you to help yourself 7 days a week in the luxury converted bus. We’ll gather for a tasty dinner in the main house 5 days a week. Cafes and supermarkets are just 10 mins away for extra snacks and lunch. The exchange is 5 hours of help with land projects per day, 5 days a week, typically 8am - 1pm but we can discuss. You will need your own transport to get here and to enjoy this beautiful part of Australia.
  
  We look forward to hear from you if this sounds like something you want to add to your adventures.

  If you love nature there is a lot to enjoy at our home with beautiful trees, shrubs and an array of wildlife that visit our property every day. There is plenty to learn about Australian nature here.
  
  Our local pristine beaches and so many beautiful coastal walks are only 10 mins away. Dolphins have been sighted often, surfing the waves close to shore.
  
  It is very tranquil here. We often get a flock of majestic black cockatoos visit for a drink from the bird bath at dusk. It is magnificent to witness. If you love birds, you can learn about the way they keep an eye out for each other, observing from the deck. A majestic king parrot and its mate. Wagtails. Pigeons. The list is long.
  
  There is an illusion of being a away from civilization, the hustle and bustle. Everyone who visits here feels the benefit of the serenity here and yet we are only 10 minutes from the coast, shops, cinema, cafes, a safe swimming beach, river walks and surfing beaches.
  
  We are happy to offer yoga classes, breath work, conscious communication, gene keys which is fused with our healing space including the Finish style wood fired sauna, natural pool, meditation pyramid and ice bath sharing's if interested
