  • Description

    Description

    We are an older couple who love sharing our part of the world with fellow travellers. We live in a rural setting with a large garden, but in easy reach of Hervey Bay, Fraser Island, Maryborough and Rainbow Beach.
    We enjoy meeting people from other countries and telling them the best places to see in our area.
    We have a self-contained flat for visitors. I would appreciate some help in the garden. There are veggie beds and an orchard. The garden attracts a wide variety of birdlife, insects and other animals.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    We love travelling ourselves, so would like to provide accommodation and communication with others to share the best places to see in this area, such as K'gari and the Carlos Sandblow.
    We have a large garden and grow a range of vegetables and fruit. We do not use synthetic sprays or chemicals. We are mainly organic. We eat white meat and vegetarian food, but can cater for vegan.
    We are a laid back couple who are happy to share our peaceful place.

    We love hearing about the lives of our guests. Help in the garden and sharing cooking is all that is required. We do not eat red meat and are happy to cater for vegetarians also. I like to propagate plants in addition to general garden maintenance.
