  Beschreibung

  We have a 120 acre farm in the Latrobe Valley (VIC) and would like to show our local environment, wildlife and our community. We have a herd of Belted Galloway Cattle, which are very cute and fluffy. There is only two of us living here, and only one full time.
  
  The help I require on the property is in and around the house, in our veggie garden, our small fruit tree orchard,and in the paddocks. Harrowing, cleaning up and making firewood (we have thousands of gum trees that fall over all the time).

  Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten

  We speak German and English at home. We have lived in Germany, suburban Australia and own our second farm. We have moved to a rural environment and can talk about our journey from corporate/self employed life to a better life on a farm. We have a close community in this area, which welcomes new people with open arms. We would like to show our guests the local area of Gippsland, the native wildlife (we have many Wombats, Kangaroos, Echidnas, birds, and there is a reported Platypus. We have very fluffy cattle, some like a scratch as well. Traralgon is a larger rural city that has everything one could want, and is only 18 minutes by car. We have travelled extensively and have visited parts of Asia and Europe. Africa is on our list, and America when we will retire. We would like to hear stories from other people, their travels and experiences.

  Unterkunft

  We have two fully furnished bedrooms and a private bathroom available. We share the living areas. It's a large house with plenty of indoor and outdoor space.
  We would share most meals, unless you feel like making your own meal or eating elsewhere.
  It would be great if we could cook some meals together.

  Was noch ...

  We expect the house guests to be tidy and clean up after themselves. You can use our washing machine for cleaning your clothes. We offer you free Internet. Phone reception can be patchy, depending on where you are on the property. You can do whatever you like in your free time. There is no public transport close by, but I'm happy to drop you off in Traralgon for personal shopping, leisure or if you want to catch a train to Melbourne. We are non smokers and do not tolerate smoking in or around our home. Because of the fire danger we face in summer, you are not allowed to smoke in the bush either.
  We breed beef cattle, we sell them, some will go to slaughter, and we eat meat.
