    Description

    We are a young family with two little kids - 2 x boys - ages 3 (almost) and 4. Dad is from Germany and mum is Australian. We have a mechanic and engineering business that Eugen runs. Mum, Alice, works in the business and coordinates a community youth bike program. We love camping, travelling, going to local events, socialising and being outdoors.
    Eugen loves doing anything physical and making stuff, his big focus is the business. Alice rides horses, is very creative and social. Both boys love riding their bikes, learning, swimming, adventures, reading, playing games, being helpful around the house, drawing and painting etc.

    We are looking for someone to be a part of our family as well as someone who will want to enjoy and explore where we live.

    We are in need of a hand in the garden, doing tasks around the home and helping with the kids on some of the days.

    Mostly babysitting, helping around the house with cooking and cleaning and outside jobs if you like.
    You will get your own room in our home with shared bathroom and access to a bike - possibly a vehicle.

    We are an active family and are keen to have Workawayers who are also active, engage with us outside of your hours but also respect each others space and need for quiet time - we will do the same in return :) we love to learn about your adventures as fellow travellers and Alice has travelled the world as a Workawayer 😊
