    Description

    We are a super sporty family sitting on a 90 acres farm in Biddaddaba Qld, it's in an amazing location between Canungra, Tamborine Mt and Beechmont in the beautiful Scenic Rim, it's a hikers paradise.

    We're 45 mins drive to the beach on the Gold Coast and 45 mins to Brisbane City.

    The property is incredibly private with amazing mountain views, we have a full gym, boxing ring, sauna, full size U.S Motocross track, Horses, Cattle, chickens and dogs.

    We have 3 kids, 24, 21 and 18. Our 2 oldest are always away traveling and our youngest has his last year of High School.

    We'd like to have someone to help with property maintenance as in mowing, whipper snipping, slashing (tractor has A/C Cab) or some cooking, general cleaning. It would also be great to find someone with high level Boxing or Thai Boxing experience who would be able to to hold pads for my Son who is training for fights.

    My husband is a former 3X World Muay Thai Champion, so he can also teach people new skills as well that you can use for the rest of your life.

    We are all very eager to learn Spanish so language help would be amazing as well.

    You will be staying in a modern off grid cabin on top of the property, it has amazing views for sunset and sunrise and is very scenic and peaceful for the outdoor lovers. There is no wifi, but there is great cellular service, so our travellers all purchase cheap E sim's if internet is a priority and they do not already have one before staying. The rooms are clean and tidy, there is running water and it is generator powered. Our lifelong friend also lives up there and helps all work away's with whatever they need.

    We are in a great location and would definitely like show people places that most tourists would never get to see with over 50 years of local knowledge. Because of our location being 15 mins drive into the closest town, a car is recommended to enjoy your stay and explore the near by areas if we are too busy to take you around. For us work away is not a need as the work at home is minimal, its just a thing we all want and enjoy, meeting new people and having great cultural exchanges along with the possibility of making real friends, that we can one day visit in there home countries is exciting and what its all about!

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    We are well traveled, We've spent a lot of time in South America, South East Asia and Europe. We taught our kids how important traveling and learning new cultures is. Our two oldest children have been to over 50+ countries.

    We are very proud of where we live and have and incredible property where you can experience the best of Australian culture, some of the most scenic bush walks are super close to our property, plus the surf and Brisbane City are 45 mins drive

    Plus we also have incredible peace and quiet here so you can just relax in the afternoon and stare at the mountains.

    My husband was a professional fighter, has a concrete business and is a Firefighter. We can offer horse riding, surfing or Fight training when not in fight camp. Our daughter ( when she isn't traveling) is a Yoga instructor and Physio. My oldest son is a fighter as well. I do yoga, Horse Riding and love bush walking.

    Our property is extremely safe for solo or group female traveler's

    We'd love to learn more Spanish or Thai but any language is a skill we'd love to have.
