Off grid jungle cottage on a beautiful 150acre property set in the magical Daintree Rainforest, QLD, Australia

  Description

  I'm the caretaker of a beautiful 150acre property set in the magical Daintree Rainforest. It's one of the best kept secrets of the area, words won't do it justice. Swimming holes and creeks to enjoy, hiking trails to explore and in my opinion the best beach in FNQ just a short 10min cycle away.
  You'll call the private jungle cottage home. A tranquil space where you can connect deeply with Self and Nature. Tend to the vegie garden or fruit orchids and prepare a meal in your own outdoor kitchen.

  A beautiful community of friends who are Self aware, sober and environmentally engaged. If you'd like to be involved in fun, wholesome adventures like off grid living, festivals, hikes, fishing, camping, cooking, jam nights, ecstatic dance then you will be welcomed and if you'd prefer to enjoy some solitude, this will be respected.
