    We are French/Australian family living in a beautiful seaside village called Ocean Grove in Victoria.

    We are looking for a skilled carpenter / builder to help us complete some small jobs around the house in exchange for a holiday by the beach. We would like to replace some weatherboards on our house and build a small wooden deck.

    If you have the skills and are interested in learning more, please drop us a message.

    We are an adventurous family. We love to travel and explore nature. We love meeting new people and introducing them to Australian culture and helping them make the best of their time in Australia.

    We love living in Ocean Grove, it is a gorgeous seaside village with so much to offer. We are very happy to show you around the Bellarine Peninsular. There are fantastic surf beaches, bike paths and many beautiful places to go hiking.

    We love to cook and share social meals with family and friends. Our favourite meal is Gallette! We are looking for someone to help teach our children French and share in our day to day lives.

    Ocean Grove and the Bellarine Peninsular is a wonderful place to live. We are very close to the delights of Melbourne but we are next to the sea! It is easy to get to Melbourne if you want some big city adventure! You can easily catch a bus/train from Ocean Grove to Geelong and Melbourne or you can sail on Port Phillip bay by catching the ferry.

    The Bellarine Peninsular and the Great Ocean Road has so much to offer, with spectacular nature, hiking, bike riding, surfing, swimming. We have bikes, hiking gear and surfing gear you can borrow.
