    Description

    I am a single, full time working mumma to 2 sons, shared care with their father. I live on a very picturesque farm (200 acres) 20km out of Ararat and only 30km from the amazing Grampians National Park, 2.5 hours from Melbourne. I also have 3 crazy chihuahuas, Pablo, Chili and Diablo, a few farm cats and a herd of horses. I have only recently moved back to the farm and have lots of work to complete.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Experience staying on a beautiful farm in a fantastic area. Can help with teaching some Aussie slang, plenty of opportunity to also pick up part time work in the surrounding areas.

    Help

    Ideally someone who is looking to have a bit of a rest and explore the local area. I cannot offer money but can offer accommodation, food, bills included in exchange for some help with feeding horses, some gardening, maybe a few chores on farm and some school drop off and pick up for my sons depending on my work shift and hamging out with them. My eldest son (13) is Type1 Diabetic so must be willing to learn a little from me with managing this when im not around. Must have own transport 😊
    Big bonus if you have carpentry skills as I have an old school bus I'm wanting to finish off as accommodation!
