  Beschreibung

  We are an animal loving family of five looking for a cultural exchange and extra helping hands.
  
  We have been hosting international language students and au pairs for 14 years and have loved the experience of sharing cultures and also food. We have made lifelong friends and have kept in touch with and are still visited by previous au-pairs.Our children are now 18, 15 and 11 and no longer need an au pair, so we are looking for travellers to bring a little of their culture into our home and help us the day to day running and maintenance of a home and bush property.
  
  We would also like to show you around our lovely corner of the world. We are 30 minutes from Brisbane CBD by car, however public transport isn’t very good near our house so it is more suited to people wanting more of a Farmstay/semi-rural experience. We live in an area that is great for bushwalking, mountain biking and horse riding. Our families interests are rock climbing, skateboarding, horse riding, bush walking and camping.
  
  We live on 10 acres and have chickens, sheep, dogs, guinea pigs, horses and an abundance of weeds that all need taking care of.

  Arbeit

  We are particularly seeking help from people with a love of horses and children as you will be spending a lot of time around them.
  
  We are working on some home maintenance projects such as building fences, painting the house, high pressure washing outside areas and oiling decks. There will also be times I’d like you to supervise the children when they are riding their horses, so some confidence and familiarity with horses will be a bonus.
  
  We like to match your jobs to your interests. We would like 20 hours a week or 4 hours a day 5 days a week in exchange for meals and accomodation.
  
  We are mostly home during the day so will often be working alongside you on projects. However there will be times that you will need to work alone or with the children if I am running errands. With a busy house of people coming and going there is always a list of jobs sitting on the kitchen bench for family members to pick from.

  Unterkunft

  You would have a large room with a queen bed, a single trundle bed, table and chairs and desk. The room is downstairs from the kitchen and we are early risers so it can sound like elephants stomping above you. There is a shared bathroom and toilet with the children. Dinner we all take turns cooking and eat together. Some nights we go for a walk and have a picnic dinner.
  
  We like to eat healthy, gluten free meals.

  Was noch ...

  Our home is in a very quiet area so isn’t really suitable to people who like the bustling city life and partying. Public transport isn’t very good in our area and it is a 40 minute, hard walk to the nearest bus that comes hourly. We are more than happy to drop you to the bus when we are around but we aren’t always available at short notice.
  
  We don’t accept smokers or vapers in our house. Also we ask that you don’t wear strong perfumes as we are quite sensitive to smells.
