Beschreibung
We are a small family of 3. Dewi (day-wee) is from Java in Indonesia, Peter is a retired Registered Nurse, ,and our little boy, Toby (6) , returns I school for Year 2 in 2025.
We live on a 100 acre property that is mostly regrowth eucalyptus forest. We are "off-grid" with solar power, rainwater and gas cooking. There is an assortment of animals: dogs, cats, chickens, and guinea pigs. This is not a business, it's a lifestyle property - just there is often lots of things for us to take care of. We are looking for a little help around the property - helping feed the animals, painting, some light housework, helping sort out our overgrown garden, and maybe supervising/playing with Toby, in exchange for a place to stay and food to eat. It's not hard work, and we will show our helper around the area.
The person/s we are looking for should like children and animals, be practical minded to be able to help around the property, and be comfortable with the peace and quiet (except for roosters crowing and dogs barking) that comes with living in the countryside (our nearest neighbours are about 500 metres away), with no traffic noise.
We are about 45 minutes from Taree or Forster in the hinterland of New South Wales Great Lakes. Beaches are also about 45 minutes away. Mobile phone coverage is mostly good for voice and data (depending on carrier) and we also have satellite internet (can be a bit slow sometimes).
Accommodation is self contained in a caravan at present, but will change to a cottage when it's cleaned up and ready to stary in, and would suit single or couple.Arten von Hilfe und Lernmöglichkeiten

Both Dewi and Peter are interested in sharing language. Dewi is fluent in Indonesian and is quick to learn other languages.Unterkunft

We will purchase food, together with our WorkAwayer, so they can make their own food to their own tastes and preferences. There will be times when we will share meals.Was noch ...
We are in an area where there is very limited public transport. Having your own vehicle is an advantage, but we will make sure you get to see this part of the world. We are 40 minutes from beaches, the nearest towns with major shopping are about 45 minutes.
We prefer a quiet person who is a non-smoker and not into drugs.Etwas mehr Information
