  What's this?
• 

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  If you're interested in fire and rescue, you'd be welcome to the station that I volunteer at. There art's and crafts in town, sporting grounds and most things a small country town has. Geraldton is less than an hour south,. Kalbarri is just over an hour north. Maybe we can share our cultural food dishes. I'm sure we'll share and learn much of each other.

  Help

  Day to day care of sheep and chooks, checking windmills and water tanks, fixing fences, little projects like building a chook house, butchering a sheep, improving the fruit n vegie garden. Most things we'll do together, helping and teaching each other a lot. If you've got any mechanical, carpentry skills, great. However, it's often just more hands making the jobs easier.
