Description
We've recently moved into a new place in Warrnambool, which is a share house for young professionals and students. I've had experience with workaway while travelling overseas, and enjoyed meeting new people, learning from locals and making amazing memories along the way!
(Please note, as the owner is currently at the property part time, we're not able to include meals as standard, and thus are offering 3 hours a day 5 days a week. We'll plan a meal or more together, as dates allow!)
(Please note, we not not available for April, and I will be overseas and may be slow to respond. We are possibly hosting through May, June, July, so do reach out if this is of interest!)
