    Description

    Hello! We, Svend and I, Tinka are a semi retired European couple who moved from the coast to Amamoor in 2022 to live on small acreage for sustainable reasons. We love the serenity, the neighbourhood, and the fact that we can live off the land...
    However, for now we are still in the last stages of renovating our country cottage. This is where you come in. We would love some help with various projects on the land, such as gardening, helping Svend repairing, etc.

    You will have a self contained studio with an ensuite, kitchenette, double bed to yourself(ves). Meals will be served in the house, but you will be able to makes your own if you wish.
    There is also a pool which you are welcome to use.
    It's all pretty casual, we have had young people stay with us, including friend's family members. One thing though, while we can pick you up from bus or train stations, if you wish to explore on your own, you will need to have your own car, as there is no public transport in the area.

    We'd love to hear from you.
    Cheers, Svend & Tinka

    We basically love having young people around. Svend loves to share his life experiences, his carpenter skills and his outlook on life. We have both travelled and lived abroad before making Australia our forever home. Tinka has been running a holiday accommodation on the coast for the past 10 years and loves meeting people from all cultures and walks of life.
