Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
I love hosting people from around the world as I enjoy learning about different cultures and different outlook on life, I enjoy hearing about where people are from and how life is different from there. I love sharing about my projects and explaining how everything works in our gardens and nature. I play African drums (Djembe) and like to share this for anyone who is interested.
My guests will be able to immerse themselves in nature, while learning hands on how to develop and maintain gardens and native plantings. You will have opportunity to interact with me and our team to experience what life is like in a remote rural small town.
Help
Garden projects, moving organic materials, planting, establishing new gardens, tree work etc.

Accommodation
Large bedroom in separate accodomation (old school hall). Warm and sunny space with double bed and bunks. Small gym with lots of weights. Own kitchen with plenty of food provided, you cook your own food at times that suit you. This is your own space where you get to do your own thing.
What else ...
I am single so this is not a family homestay type experience. This is a solo experience where you very much do your own thing in your own separate house. I am sociable and enjoy hosting but I am also often away, therefore this is an opportunity to have your own space and a lot of quiet time to yourself. Great opportunity to slow down and enjoy some time out :)
