    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    when we arrived in Tassie 4 years ago we did a lot of "workaway" ourselves and value the exchange program, we don't have any family here and we love having inspiring visitiors around, learning about different cultures and food.
    .
    - practice your language skills with us : Jessa is polish- australian and Andrew is Australian and we are open minded ex-travelers always keen to have a good yarn,
    - enjoy hobart and surrounding: we will tell you all the local/ tasmanian tips
    - enjoy south hobart: we do have self contained accomodation (room with your own bathroom) at perect location - great base to explore
    .
    .
    we hope to do on one of the weekend-days a day where we all are here, maybe a fire in the garden
