Description
Hi! We're a young, active family living in the picturesque town of Kingscote, on beautiful Kangaroo Island. Our family consists of three energetic children, aged 7, 8, and 9, and a friendly dog who keeps us busy. Our home is located on the outskirts of town, surrounded by a lovely garden full of fruit trees and vegetables that need care and attention throughout the year.
We’re currently looking for volunteers who can lend a hand with gardening, cooking, and general house cleaning. Whether you have a green thumb or enjoy cooking, we would greatly appreciate your help. In return, we offer a warm and welcoming home where you can experience the beauty of the island and become a part of our family for a while.
Our home is just a 15-minute walk from the town centre, local beaches, and amenities like a gym and swimming pool.
We look forward to hearing from you and hopefully working together to keep our home and garden running smoothly!
