  Description

  Hello everyone and nice to meet you :)
  
  I'm Shane, I grew up in country Qld and I just love to be around great people and adventure, I first started travelling Australia at 16 and since then have travelled to over 100 countries and lived in a few as well.
  Family is really import and i missed them so i came home to Finch Hatton to set up some special spaces on our very beautiful family property so i can spend some time with them while creating somewhere really special for my friends and family to stay and play as well.
  
  I just love creating cool spaces to bring people together so with the help of some really great people from around the world we have been able to create some fun projects like a double decker bus hostel in Portugal, tree house accommodation on the beach in India, a jungle hostel and retreat space in Sri Lanka, party buses in America, a kindergarten in the Philippines and quite a few other fun and meaningful projects that bring people together.
  
  
  In this project we have been creating some really unique and fun spaces like tree houses, creekside bush huts, tiny homes, retro caravans, outdoor entertaining areas, rainforest showers and rock spa baths.
  It's really looking incredible and we want to keep creating so we are looking for great people to help and share the ride with.
  
  
  If you can build, fabricate, like to garden or cleaning up the land that's great but if you are a great person your welcome here so don't worry about your experience :)
  
  Ok so a little bit from serious Shane :)
  
  In the past projects I have worked with hundreds of volunteers and as a whole people are great and I have made some really good friendships but there are some people who are not willing to do too much or just not nice, if that's you please don't apply.
  The work needs to get done and we treat people like friends not workers, so if you can't be a good friend and don't want to work hard this isn't the place for you.
  
  We just really want your time here to be enriching so come say hello :)
  
  Very open to new ideas and letting people create in their own way (if you know what you're doing) so you won't have me looking over your shoulder:)
  
  
  Ok everyone. Have a great day and looking forward to chatting soon.
  
  I will attach some photos of this project and other projects so you can see a bit of how we do what we do :)
  
  Shane :)
