Description
Join us at Adventure Bay Bruny Island - most of the time you willl need your own car but occasionally we can pick you up.
We don’t always have availability as we live in Hobart & this house is 90 minutes drive including ferry to Bruny island.
The island is clean & pristine with beautiful beaches.
We have hosted backpackers for years but are new to this website. Enjoy great food & company in exchange for 4 hours work. Usually easy jobs.
Kylie & Glen are your hosts. Kylie works in radio, Glen is an oyster manager & marine based
We have 2 daughters but they live in Sydney now studying. We also have 2 cute poodles. -

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
When you stay with us you’ll experience a remote beautiful location.
We like eating nice food together if we are staying at the property with you (not all the time) & having conversations over dinner. We will try & have a bonfire & BBQ while you are staying & you will meet our adorable dogs.
It’s a friendly atmosphere usually with other helpers and sometimes you will see wallabies !
There’s a nearby farm of miniature animals we can visit. -

Help
We need help Tuesday September 23rd and 24th - staying 1 or 2 nights.
We can sleep 10 people but most of the time we only have 2+ helpers. It varies. Right now we have a girl from Singapore & another girls from Taiwan. Last weekend we had 4 people. It always changes. We have hosted for 15 years but are new to this site. -
