    Description

    We are currently seeking someone to help with housework and some miner building handyman stuff. Ideally a couple.
    We need someone that is responsible and love lots of animals.

    We are in an area called Koah which is about 15 minutes west of Kuranda and about 1 hours from Cairns CBD. We have no public transport at our door but bus stop is about 1kl walking.

    We also generally will go to Cairns or Mareeba for supplies at least once a fortnight.

    Because we are building there or no bedrooms in the house completed as yet, but we do have a self contained motorhome ( will need some cleaning) it is air-conditioned and you will have your own privacy. It will be really like living in the country… We have a lovely acreage with dogs,chooks, goats, birds and various wildlife. Our property backs on to a river which you can go down and enjoy a swim at any time.

    Please DO NOT apply if you are a smoker. I have a Lung Disease and cannot be around this kind of environment.

    If you can help us please let us know.

    You need to be able to speak English

    Please do not email us unless you can help in any of the above.....(thank you)

    Once again Public transport is very limited if you have your own transport that would be an advantage but not necessary . If the Australian country is what you want to experience we can help you with this.
    We can supply food or you supply your own we can discuss this when we touch base with each other.
