    Description

    I live on the beautiful Sunshine Coast in Queensland, 10 minutes drive to some of the prettiest beaches!
    We also have very pretty hinterland nearby with waterfalls and all the hiking you could wish for.
    I have a timber pole house and a large sloping garden . There is a lot of work in maintaining both and I would really love some help from active willing workers. If you have a background in gardening or home maintenance that would be amazing.🫠
