Description
Rob and I have a beautiful house in Perth plus a small hobby farm in the gorgeous Ferguson Valley. We divide our week between our two properties. We have a dog called Denzel who loves playing chase and going to the beach. And we have four delightful grandchildren. Rob is the president of his Rotary Club and I do volunteer work with refugee families.
Types of help and learning opportunities
Gardening
Help around the house
General Maintenance
Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
I am a qualified teacher so I would be able to offer assistance to anyone who would like to improve their written or spoken English. We are very happy to share a bit of true Aussie life as well as some travelling to different places around Perth and the Southwest. Rob and I love meeting and learning from people from other countries as well as sharing our life with them.
Projects involving children
This project could involve children. For more information see our guidelines and tips here.
Help
We would like some help with general maintenance in the gardens and properties. Rob wants to put up new fences on the farm so some helpers who are younger and stronger than me would be much appreciated.
Languages spoken
English: Fluent
Accommodation
We have enough bedrooms in both our houses to accommodate a couple or two independent helpers at a time. I will do the cooking (Rob can't cook!!) but I am very happy to have others cook for us. I will expect the helpers to maintain a clean bedroom and bathroom plus help do the dishes etc
What else ...
Our Perth house is near the bus and train station so helpers can go exploring around the city and beaches and there is a large shopping centre with picture theatres just a short walk away. The farm is very close to the beautiful state forest and farm land where they can enjoy real Aussie bush with lots of kangaroos and native birds. Rob, Denzel and I often drive into Bunbury and the beaches and we would love to take the helpers with us
