Description
I’m a single Dad of an 13yo boy and we love living surrounded by trees here. We make the most of the area we live in, we have wildlife that visits, my son has a mtb track here on our property, we have a vege patch, chickens and enjoy the slow pace of life when we’re here at home.
I’m self employed, I enjoy trail running and love being a parent…I get to be a kid sometimes too, who doesn’t love that?!
We live in Clear Mountain in Brisbane, about 35min drive from the city, and have 5 acres here. We always have odd tasks that need doing, or I have something that needs fixing or organising, both inside the house and outside. We don’t have public transport to our home, but we’re about 5mins from the nearest bus stop (or train station) and I can drop guests there easily if you need as I work from home often.
We’re fairly active, and enjoy getting out, visiting friends, family, camping, most things outdoors yet happy hangout at home too, board games, my son enjoys his ps4, mtb and building huts in the bush.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We’ve had travellers stay here over the last few years, visitors from mainland Europe, South America, Asia, North America and the UK. We’ve shared meals and our life here in Brisbane. We’ve shared trips to the beach, mountain hikes, catch-ups with my friends, even camping together. We hope to continue this fun and these experiences.
Help
We always have odd tasks to do, from inside the home such as organising stuff for me, helping fix stuff around the home, some cleaning, or outside tasks such as little projects in the garden, gardening, weeding the veggie patch, collecting firewood, cleaning, feeding the chickens.

Marion is easy to get along with, and super helpful around home. She didn’t require much instruction for the tasks/jobs I asked her to do, which included garden work,… read more
Leonie is super respectful, considerate and was an ease to have around the house. I’d certainly recommend Leonie as a great Workaway guest.
