Description
Enjoy time on the beautiful Sunshine Coast, Queensland Australia. My small family live on an acre on the edge of the hinterland in Verrierdale, 12 minutes from Noosaville, 12 mins from beautiful Perigian Beach and 5 minutes from the famous Eumundi markets. We were avid travelers in our youth and welcome the opportunity to support your journey in comfort and with a smile.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Noosa is a very popular holiday destination in Australia and is very difficult to find accomodation. This exchange could be exactly what you're looking for. There is so much to do around here including swimming, kayaking, hiking and lots of eating!

Help
We have a large garden that threatens to get away from us plus some handyman projects that would welcome carpentry and/or painting skills. The garden requires weeding, mulching, spreading some stones, pruning, occasional planting etc plus some fence staining. We have repainted all the inside of the house bar three rooms if you have those skills. Working in the garden is a joy, there are so many birds that visit and sing to you and it is a quiet, still environment amongst luscious nature.

Accommodation
We have a self contained unit downstairs suitable for two people. Seperate bedroom, bathroom, lounge room and kitchenette. We have a family member on a strict diet, so we are not providing meals atm, but are instead, offering reduced working hours to 3 hours each x five days per week.
What else ...
Honestly, there is so much to do and see here. The best markets and beaches, lake Weyba, the Noosaville river and restaurants, hinterland walks, national park beach walks, so much food and restaurant life, Australia zoo, waterfalls and so much more.
