Description
Myself and my wife live on 100 acres of great Australian bush with plenty of wallabies, kangaroos and birds around.
We are 30 minutes from the nearest town (Grafton) and 30 minutes from the beach at Woolgoolga.
I have a range of hobbies, surfing, bouldering, hockey (ice) and happy to bring you along for any of them when going. My wife rides horses and will gladly take experienced riders.
We are really just looking for general help around the place, cooking, cleaning, gardening etc. There is always projects we want done for those that love the sense of achievement but we are generally pretty flexible.
Our place has 2 horses and 2 dogs. The dogs are 1 male Corgi that’s very anxious of new people but super cuddly one he warms up to you + 1 female cattle dog that loves people and is 100 miles an hour constantly, without any actual livestock to herd she requires lots of play and attention.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We both love to travel and are looking to hear about where you are from or beautiful places you have been, obviously we are happy to share our stories too. Would love to try some of your cuisine if you are willing to cook it for us. We want to show you the real Australia outside the City, great bush and beautiful beaches.
Projects involving children
This project could involve children. For more information see our guidelines and tips here.
Help
Just looking for general help around our place, could be anything really from cooking and cleaning to outdoor projects.
If you have any special skills that you want to use feel free to tell us about them (we need a bit of everything).
We often work around the place on weekends on anything from burn piles to building horse shelters, slashing, mowing etc.

Accommodation
We have a spare room with a nice Queen size bed that the WiFi actually works in, people with camper vans are welcome to stay in them if they are more comfortable.
Food would generally be eaten together for an evening meal with a help yourself type deal for breakfast and lunch or snacks.
We eat almost everything but don’t judge anyone based on what they eat. We sometimes have weekend BBQ’s or go to the pub.
What else ...
You would probably need your own car to enjoy our place, we both work 5 days a week and while we are happy to take you places it might become boring relying on us.
