We are yoga teachers, and run 200hr yoga teacher trainings in Crescent Head. We have our dog River (kelpie x) who is super friendly and playful. There is plenty of wildlife including Kangaroos, Wallabies, Goannas and lots of bird life! We have an established orchard currently harvesting blueberries, apricots, nectarines, peaches, plums, citrus and more..

    We have both spent many years travelling and doing work exchange all over the world, and would like to make this a great experience for all.
