  Descrição

  We have two properties, one by the sea which has to be sold to fund the permarculture eco village. The seaside one will take priority now because we need the funds to continue the eco village.
  The Yanchep property is set on the beach over the Yanchep Lagoon - the biggest challenge is to sell off 100's of items on facebook or a garage sale or market - my brother is a hoarder and these things have to go. The interior needs a repaint and a jolly good clean with many windows to wash (salt spray) Outside we need brickpaving finished, lawnmowing, landscaping and garden tidyup and a timber deck built.
  I'd really appreciate someone with mechanical skills, maintain tools drills etc, carpentry, plumbing, painting, brickpaving, photography. Accommodation - fall asleep to the sound of the sea in comfortable beds, hot showers etc
  In Wanneroo we need anyone with architectural or planning skills- we want to create a small eco village using environmental materials but this will now be after September.
  I provide a private bedroom, comfortable beds, bathroom, use of laundry, free wi-fi, and bikes. A full day can be worked if you want to take the next day off for sightseeing or job interviews. We can help with advice on finding work and will give good references to good helpers. (I must point out that recently it is taking longer to find work April 2025).
  The property is a large 4.5-acre property that we plan to set up as a sustainable community. We appreciate helpers with the following skills, carpentry - less hours would be required for skilled tradespeople, otherwise we ask for five hours of good work each day. When considering a fair exchange, the actual work achieved is fairer than counting hours.
  As the cost of living in Australia almost doubled this past year, particularly food, accommodation and electricity, we ask particularly now for a fair exchange of labor to cover our costs in providing a fully equipped well above average home for you, ( a resort, with salt water swimming pool, gym, massage room, yoga mats, chi machine, beautiful peaceful gardens, good healthy food, books, games, movies).
  I need positive, self-motivated helpers who can work well on their own and understand a fair exchange and a willingness to contribute cheerfully and see a project to the end. I maintain a happy atmosphere and appreciate good humour.
  We have some camping equipment you can borrow and a place to leave your car safely if you are going to Bali or? For those who get FIFO work on the mines it can be a place to come back to on your week off.

  Oportunidades de intercâmbio cultural e aprendizado

  We are pioneers in this area - we were born here and are the oldest living inhabitants . We care about the environment and are happy to teach skills in caring for plants, travel in Australia, and places to see on the West coast.
  In Wanneroo, I have free-range hens, and a beautiful garden.
  I can teach you how tend a worm farm, toss compost and prune trees. I have an extensive library of handyman magazines and a great collection of gardening books, (and books on most topics).

  Algo mais...

  There are some nice walks (eg around Lake Joondalup) we are half an hour from Yanchep National Park and 2 hours drive to Moor River and the Pinnacles with some great photo opportunities.
  I can pick you up from the station or a bus comes directly to Elizabeth St, Wanneroo.
  You can work full days and then take full days off for job interviews or touring. Hours of work depend more on the skill involved and work achieved, rather than a set 5 - so long as it is a fair exchange on both sides.
