Description
Hello travellers,
We invite you to join us in the picturesque town of Dalesford, Australia, for a unique country experience surrounded by nature and creativity. Our welcoming home offers three exciting projects for you to get involved in:
Garden Enthusiasts Wanted! 🌱
Dive into the world of gardening as we slowly enhance our garden. Tasks include lawn mowing, whipper snipping, and basic gardening. If you have a green thumb, we'd love your expertise!
Unleash Your Creativity with Social Media! 🎨
Meet Peter, our talented artist, seeking assistance with embracing emerging technology on platforms like TikTok and Instagram. Help him showcase his incredible work to the world in a fun and engaging way. If you have social media experience, you're exactly who we're looking for!
Revamp a Charming Caravan! 🚐
Are you handy with tools? Our small caravan is in need of some tender loving care. Put your carpentry skills to use and join our caravan renovation project. Your efforts will bring this cozy space back to life!
When applying, please let us know:
Your skills related to the projects (e.g., basic carpentry, social media expertise, gardening proficiency).
Your preference for accommodation: a cozy bedroom in the main house, the charming caravan, or occasionally, the luxurious farm stay house.
We're happy to arrange a pick up in Dalesford which is a short bus or train ride from Melbourne.
Come join us for a memorable time in the Australian countryside, where creativity meets nature.
