Accommodation
You’d be staying in my 1970 school bus which is converted into a tiny home, with a comfortable queen size bed, kitchen, bathroom and outdoor barbecue. The bus is parked right next to the straw bale house, on a large bush block (1 hectare of bushland) in the middle of Lawson.

What else ...
I have had many Workaways travellers stay in the past, and have had really great experiences. I am happy to cook for guests if they like, but I've found that the way it has worked best is when I've just provided them with groceries and kept the bus kitchen fully stocked, then they've just looked after themselves and made their own timetable. In exchange, they do 20 hours of work a week, but their timetable can be flexible.
