Help

I am building a small studio and need some help with the labour in exchange for board and food. At this stage there is a lot of sanding and painting that needs doing. I may also need someone to give the builder a hand to build the deck onto the studio at some point soon. I also have other garden related jobs that need doing on the property but the building will be the primary work. I am flexible with working out the hourly work exchange happy with something between 4-5hrs.

If you have carpentry/building skills that would be ideal.

Accommodation

I have a very comfortable bus with bedroom, shower and kitchen set up which I am willing to share I can sleep at the main house or set up a tent but will be sharing the kitchen with you in the bus. If you have your own car that will make your stay more comfortable because of the distance from town and beach but it is also possible to get lifts with us to and from town sometimes and to hitch hike.

What else ...

There are many beautiful bush walks, swimming holes, beaches and often great live music gigs in the area. If you are interested in yoga, dance, meditation or any of the creative arts there is always something happening in this area for you to partake in.
