Description
Hello!
We’re happy to take people stranded during COVID. Can take up to two people only and must be willing to share a bedroom (queen bed).
My husband and I live on a couple of acres that overlook mountains and farm land.
We currently only have chickens and a small veggie garden that we are hoping to expand.
We have a three year old son who is a really happy content little dude. He is in Kinder three days a week - we are hoping to have someone come for the next three weeks whilst I (Bernadette) finish off my Masters.
We are an active family and love camping, hiking, surfing, mountain biking etc
We live close to great mountain biking and hiking tracks and 30mins drive to the beach. We are in Bairnsdale which is 3.5hrs from melbourne (easy by train too). It’s a stunning part of Australia with lots of things to do including seeing lots of native animals and plants - we even have an island with Koalas living in it!!
We’ve always travelled and shared our home with travellers. Hoping for someone (open to a couple) to help with house/garden and childcare duties. I’m a midwife and a personal trainer and Mick is a teacher. We’re flexible with length of stay. We have two spare bedrooms each with Queen sized beds, separate toilet and shower.
We’d love to share our home and culture with you - please get in touch!Types of help and learning opportunities
