Description
My son( 10yr) and I live in a small service country town called Biggenden an hour away from Bundaberg. I work full time as an administration and accounts officer at an engineering and fabricating business. It is a country town but close enough to town centres and the beach. I arrived in Australia in 2009 and would love to help other travellers in their own personal journey to explore this vast and varied country.
Types of help and learning opportunities
Language practiceGardeningBabysitting and creative playCreating/ Cooking family mealsHelp around the houseGeneral MaintenanceCultural exchange and learning opportunities
I migrated to Australia in 2009 from India. I have lived in cities and small towns. I have finished university and work so I am able to offer my personal experience and advice around that. I am very proficient in English and am able to help with practice in speaking or writing English if needed.
As I live in a small country town and work full time with my kid in school you will be able to relax and rest and soak in the local culture while we are not at home. There is plenty of space in my house if you would like to explore hobbies like art, carpentry or photography etc.Help
Working full time and being a single parent leaves me very little time to do little fix up projects around the house. Help with meals at dinner time. Setting up garden beds in my yard.

One room with single bed, chest of drawers, fan and bedding. I will get a weekly delivery of food supplies like fresh fruit and vegetables, other pantry items. There is a local shop for other supplies if needed. We will share breakfast and dinner together.
What else ...
There is no local transport as it is small town. By car the closes train station is in Maryborough. You can use my car if you have a valid Australian/International License. There is a lot do do around here - bushwalking; hiking; beach an hour away- Harvey Bay, Bundaberg and Woodgate have really nice scenic beaches. Local town 40 mins away called Childers is very quaint and alternative.
