  Description

  Hi, we live on a beautiful semi-rural property at Mount Tamborine, in Queensland. We love the beautiful trees, our wonderful garden, the many birds, growing much of our own food, and we are off grid. We have chickens and guinea fowl. We are mostly vegetarian. We enjoy meditation and yoga. One of us is retired, and one working part time and in our 60's. We live a laid back, simple life style, and enjoy life. We occasionally go to the ocean, and love the water. In our area there are rainforrest walks close by. Shops are within walking distance (a few kms). We are looking for workaways who are interested in gardening, growing and harvesting food, landscaping, nature and the quieter side of life, perhaps including meditation and yoga.We look forward to sharing our love of nature and life with you.
