  • Description

    Description

    Our home is group of mostly females who work and study and really enjoy living together. Everyone gets on well with one another and make a really happy and warm sanctuary. We have a big jungle garden and our travellers who stay with us help us mostly during the warmer months to keep everything in order so it can breathe and be a happy place for all the birds who love visiting us. We have many beaches and parks in the neighbourhood and the city is only a ten minute ferry ride away. Most folk stay for a week and sometimes longer some even get work in the village and become flatmates as they love being here. Just one additional thing due to our living spaces at present we can only take singles at present. Our visitors have a small caravan to live in during their stay with us. We have had such great times hosting helpers from all around the world and most have been female willing and more than capable and as we are a mostly female home we would prefer to have female helpers at present.

    Help

    We have a large suburban property with multiple buildings and a large jungle/garden and we offer a bed and food for helpers after looking after the above areas that require attention on our property/garden. Most of the help we need is during the warmer months. We tend to share our evening meals if its possible but can work in with our helpers to find something that works for us all.
