  • Description

    We are a little family - Valentina, Jack and Luna (3 years old) - who are looking to start our life as close to nature as possible, working in honouring the land and contributing to healing it.
    We are embarking soon (last week of October) in our adventure towards North Queensland, wishing to connect with like-minded people from which we can learn from and exchange our gifts. We have high hopes to find a place to call home somewhere between Cairns and the Daintree Region, where we can start building our self-sustainable home, a community, and hopefully one day a yoga/wellbeing retreat to share and inspire more humans to live in a more conscious way.

    We have lived for several years in a Yoga Retreat centre and community in Byron Bay as volunteers, working in all areas of maintenance, gardening, housekeeping, cooking and teaching yoga. This experience completely shaped us forever, establishing an unbreakable bond with the people there (from which we can present references) and igniting our dream of creating a similar healing space.

  • More details about your skills

    We lived for 3 years at a self-sustainable yoga retreat centre in Byron Bay, where we did all kinds of work: gardening, housekeeping, cooking and teaching yoga classes. We were a community of about 20 volunteer residents taking care of a place that absolutely felt like home, and who's members became and extended family for us. We have references available from the Human Resources Manager in case required :)
