  Description

  I live in Far North Queensland in Ravenshoe . I have a home and a garden that need work, from gardening to small renovations. French Spanish , English and a bit of bahasa indonesia spoken. I have a room for guests and cook mainly veggetarian with a little bit of fish regularly. lots of greens from the garden , spring water.. I need home improvement more than gardening, so handymen prefered.
  
  I have a nice little peaceful creek to relax in. The place is very quiet and wild . I m half an hour walk from a stuning waterfall called little milstream falls. and 20 mn drive from Innot hot thermal springs. There are many different climates around. rainforest touching the desert alongside green hills country.
