  🏄‍♀️ Help a Busy Family on the Gold Coast – Surf, Explore, and Lend a Hand!
  
  We’re a busy, outdoorsy family on the southern Gold Coast, and we’re looking for a little extra help around our home. If you're the kind of person who loves a balance of light work and beach time, enjoys your independence, and doesn’t mind a bit of dirt under your fingernails, you might love it here.
  
  🏡 What the Setup Looks Like:
  We have two private rooms in a detached section of our home, sharing:
  
  A bathroom
  A kitchenette (with convection microwave and outdoor BBQ)
  Plenty of storage, ceiling fans, and optional single mattresses if you need two beds
  If you're a solo traveler or a pair, you'll have one room, and another Workawayer may be in the other. If you're a group, you may have both.
  
  🚽 We’re on a biocycle system. That means only toilet paper goes in the toilet. No exceptions. If that sounds like a hassle—no hard feelings, this probably isn’t your spot.
  👣 What We’re Looking For:
  We ask for 12.5 hours of help per week – usually 2.5 hours a day, five days a week, but we’re flexible if you want to bunch it into fewer days.
  
  You’ll be helping with a mix of:
  
  Household chores
  Gardening (think: pulling weeds, planting veggies, maybe naming worms)
  Supporting homeschool activities like bike riding, swimming, trips to the beach or park, driving my son to activities.
  If you’re someone who sees a broom and picks it up (instead of stepping over it), you’ll fit in perfectly.
  
  🚲 What You Get:
  A private room in a laid-back family setting
  Use of electric bikes for easy access to:
  Palm Beach surf break (15 min flat ride)
  Burleigh, Currumbin Alley (10 min drive or easy cycle)
  Local parks, trails, beaches, cafes, and shops
  Space to do your own thing when you're off the clock
  This is especially suited to:
  
  Surfers – we’re flexible, and the bikes have board racks
  Adventurers – you're in the heart of one of Australia’s most stunning regions
  Gardeners & horse lovers – we’ve got both, and they love attention
  People who like their independence, but aren’t afraid to chip in
  🍳 Food & Living
  We don’t provide meals because of our dietary needs, but:
  
  You’ll have a kitchenette, BBQ, and full independence
  A small supermarket is just a few minutes’ walk
  Bigger shops (Woolworths etc.) and cafes are within 10 minutes by bike
  We also don’t provide toilet paper – please bring your own
  🗣️ A Word From the Host (That’s Me!)
  I work 14–16 hours a day and homeschool my child. That means I’m not the one welcoming you – it will be another Workawayer or even my kid. I delegate wherever I can, even when I am at home.
  
  We’ve had people come for a week and stay for six months. Others, like Omar (😉), didn’t love it here. And that’s okay – our place isn’t for everyone.
  
  We’re upfront, respectful, easygoing, and very independent. We won’t be holding your hand, or cooking for you, or checking in every five minutes. But if you're mature, proactive, and don’t mind some dirt between your toes while getting things done – you’ll probably love it.
  
  🛑 Not the Right Fit If:
  You expect hotel-style hosting
  You don’t like cleaning
  You ignore house rules (like the toilet one – seriously)
  You need someone around on a regular basis
  🧡 Sound Like a Good Fit?
  If you're independent, respectful, and excited about exploring the Gold Coast while helping out a local family, we’d love to hear from you. We prefer longer stays (a few weeks or more), but we’re open to chat.
