Help with some Yoga retreats, gardening and general tasks in Western Creek, Tasmania, Australia

Details

• 

  Description

  We care for a beautiful 45 acre property in northern Tasmania. The pristine Western Creek runs through it, with cool pools for refreshing dips.
  There is a substantial orchard and vegetable garden, accommodation separate to the house and a straw bale yoga studio which we built in 2006. We often need help with preparing for Yoga retreats, kitchen help during them and packing up afterwards. If you're interested in Yoga this is a great opportunity and you would be able to join some sessions.
  
  We have about 15 sheep, 4 friendly goats and lots of wildlife.
  
  The Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage area is the back drop to the south with many great walking opportunities.
  
  We'd love to hear from you.

  What else ...

  WiFi and phone reception is available, Telstra works best. However our download is limited and its best if you only need this occasionally.
  
  We have quite an extensive library of novels and non-fiction books you may enjoy, 2 bicycles, some hiking gear. It is also a very peaceful place to simply be during free time.
  
  We appreciate our quiet time as well as sharing our experience, interests and knowledge and hearing about yours.
