Arbeit
More or less there are lots of things to do around here. Basically the gardens need a clean up but there are lots of other jobs around the house and Aquaculture ponds. If you like cooking you are more than welcome to take over the stove but not necessary. We have a dog that needs exercise daily, During the months of October to December it is extremely hot up here so early morning starts are best to avoid the heat of the day.

Unterkunft
We have a small Demountable for you to sleep in. It is clean and has air conditioning. While this is not big we have a great veranda with a lounge that you can relax and catch up on family and friends with the Internet.
Was noch ...
There is limited public transport out here so you will need your own transport, if you wish to travel into the city a lot. There is a shopping centre close by and we have bikes or easy walk of 2km. We are close to the stuart highway so Tourist buses will stop to pick up if you wish to look at Litchfield Park or Kakadu.

I have said yes to this question but would need to know all details and if your pet does not get on or upsets our pets or the neighbors animals you will need to move on immediately .

Thankyou Edwardo for all your help on the farm. It was great to meet you and learn about Italy. You said you wanted to get your hands dirty after using your brain for so many years. You did a magnificent job on the long grass and putting up the fence posts. I know there were lots of instruction but you handled them well and always asked questions.… read more

Max was a delight to host. He is respectful, got lots of skills, funny and will jump at the chance to help. He is always checking on the tasks at hand. Max built a fence around our solar. It was very hot but he still got on with it. He built other projects like block tank stands and had a go at some welding!!!! Our Dogs Buddy and Mr Happy loved… read more

We had such an awesome time with David and Robyn! We worked 20 hours a week for them, doing all kinds of odd jobs and also getting to help with the fish which was great. We had the weekends off and they were willing to let us work more hours each day (we did 6) so we could have more days to explore the area. There's so much to see and do… read more

Celene and Romald were the perfect guests, they carried out all the tasks set for them. It was so very very hot here and they still worked and cleared the garden and fixed up all the plumbing jobs. Just give them some room for yoga and to play a guitar. Highly recommended.
