    Description

    Hi workawayers,

    I’m a single father raising two beautiful girls on a few acres in the picturesque Chittering Valley in Western Australia.

    My dream has always been to be living a self sustainable or reasonable close to it life style. I have five acres of land that is currently home to two alpacas (Cookie and Penny), 5 chickens and a dog named Rufus.

    The property has so much potential and is worth sharing it with similar minded people.

    Please feel free to reach out, happy to answer any questions you may have.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Western Australia is a beautiful part of the world, if you’re looking at travelling around and need a place to base yourself from. Locally there is wineries and plenty of outdoor activities and the city is only 45minutes away.

    Help

    To begin with I would welcome help with general tasks around the house and property. Animal care, feeding, collecting eggs.

    There is always plenty of yard tasks, fencing, general maintenance but nothing too crazy.

    I have six garden beds and fruit trees.

    Help with cooking and playing with the girls.

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    One difficult aspect is where my property is located is a fair distance from public transport.

    Ideally you’d want to supply your own vehicle if possible. Understandably this is always a viable option but feel free to ask about possibilities.
