    Description

    Hi there :)

    We have a comfortable spare room in our family home which is close to the vibrant town of Fremantle, beaches, public transport etc.

    We are looking to have some help with creating and building an outdoor bathroom. Design, landscaping, concreting, plumbing or carpentry skills would be great. Help in the garden and with ‘spring’ cleaning and home upkeep is always appreciated,

    We are offering flexible work arrangements and sharing of meals and other facilities of the house.

    We have a fairly big backyard and vegetable garden and a special dog. We welcome open minded, willing folk who want to experience a bit of Western Australia with a friendly local family, rather than from a backpackers or a camper van (although that is fun too!).

    The photos show the available room and other views of our house.

    If you think you may be interested let us know and we can talk on the phone. What has worked well with our other Helpers is for them to come and have a visit first, so we can see if it is good for us all.

    Thanks.

    Will & Gail

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    We are offering flexible work arrangements and sharing of meals and other facilities of the house such as musical instruments, wifi, tv, bicycles, canoe and fishing / camping gear. We like to offer a warm homestay that includes travellers and can introduce them to the community offerings here, whilst also giving them space. We enjoy conversation too, so opportunities to practice language abound.

    Help

    We are looking to have some help with a few jobs around the house and in the garden: ‘spring’ cleaning, renovating an outside bathroom and sometimes help with preparing for backyard music concerts etc. We aim to have a successful garden growing foods in a sustainable way. Skills and knowledge of Permaculture principles or food growing and harvesting would be a good fit.
    Sometimes it's really appreciated to have extra hands, and community endeavours are never far from our imaginations, so input there is wonderful.
