Beschreibung
I own a beautiful 3000m2 property in Barrydale which is in the Little Karoo in the Western Cape province of South Africa, about 250km East of Cape Town. Its a small town, mainly focused on farming and tourism. There are mountains surrounding the town, with amazing hikes and swimming holes. I have a large garden where I hope to start growing vegetables. Workaways might be asked to help with planting, weeding, watering or making compost.

There are different options for accommodation for workaways, ranging from a caravan to a cottage, depending on what is available.

There are 2 self-catering units on the property where I host paying guests, and I may ask you to help to clean rooms or get involved with painting, or maintenance work.

I sometimes host groups and run retreats, and there may be an opportunity for workaways to help out or even to facilitate... which would be remunerated.

I am a tour guide and can give you lots of ideas for things to do and places to go before, during or after your stay. I can lend you a bicycle for the time in Barrydale at my place, and I can give you a lift from and to Cape Town.

I have a partner named Tim who is always keen to go on epic cycling trips, if you're keen, and 2 lovely dogs. We love meeting new people and exchanging ideas and interesting conversations. Barrydale has some fascinating inhabitants, and offers yoga, meditation, chigong, live music, markets, sweat lodges, plant medicine journeys, photographic and art exhibitions, organic deli, and some very good restaurants.
