Hi, I’m Wendy and I would love to host a couple or a single guy to help me in my garden.
I recently moved to Wishart, Brisbane and live in a 3 bedroom home. I live only 5 minutes walk from a bus stop and live close to a major shopping centre. There are also many coffee shops in walking distance to me. I have a spare guest room in which you could stay.
I have hosted before and found it to be a very enjoyable experience. I am almost 60 and find that I am unable to manage work that involves heavy lifting by myself. I recently had a shed put in and a patio and have had the roof painted with solar panels, so I have made major improvements. I have also painted the bathroom, kitchen and living space myself, but am yet to paint the bedrooms. My preferences for now are making improvements to the outside.
I wish to get started on my garden. I have covered much of my garden in mulch in many parts,to improve the quality of the soil. However, when the fence was put in this was mixed with soil, so I need to remulch some areas.
My plan is to create an Australian native garden that will encourage native birds and fauna to come. I have almost finished the fence. My next step is to cut, paint and screw the battens to the fence.
I have a table saw as well as a router with its own dedicated router table. I also have an electric drop saw and other tools. I have just purchased an electric post digger as well, to make putting the plants in the soil easier.
If you are a couple or a single man, then I think this will suit you. We can play it by ear in terms of compatibility and length of stay. I have internet which you would be welcome to use. I also have a tv, but not with subscriptions. I do a lot of walking and would try to give you space. You are also welcome to do some walks with me, especially when I go with groups, many of whom are visiting from overseas. I sometimes go camping on weekends.
I love meeting people and it would be a pleasure to host those who are willing to provide some assistance for me, to help improve the outside area of my house. Although some woodworking experience would be preferable. I am happy to accommodate individuals who are motivated to try new things and have confidence with a saw and a hammer.
Thank you for your interest,

This is a very convenient area to live in with little crime and a welcoming community. There are coffee shops in walking distance and buses are also closeby. Wishart is only about 25 minutes from the city. I have parking for vehicles if you have one.I have found eating together enables opportunities to talk about our own experiences and culture.

The primary task that is required is to help me to screw battens onto my picket fence. All the timber needs to be cut and painted and I have the tools required to put it up. I'm very excited about what this will look like. It will be a fulfilling project.
I also require some pavers laid in sand on a flat surface for a fire pit under the frangipani trees.Idiomas hablados

Alojamiento
I live in a three bedroom house, which includes a guest room. This presently has a double bunk bed, with a single bed on the top. The bathroom and kitchen would be shared with me. There is an adjoining toilet. I can provide meals on the days that work is being done and food. You are also welcome to cook for yourselves. I will purchase much of the food for you. There is quite a large kitchen with all the cooking utensils you might require. The living space is small, but we will be able to have access to the patio overlooking the garden. We will all need to make an effort to keep the house neat and tidy. All the bedding and towels are provided. I have access to a washing machine and a clothesline - (hoist) I live by myself, so, although it is a small house, you will have down time to yourselves.

Wishart is very convenient with restaurants and places to walk nearby. Buses are only a 2 minute walk from my place and you can easily travel to the city of Brisbane or the nearby shopping centre. There are coffee shops walking distance from here and gyms nearby. It is a quiet and safe place to visit.

I have space in my driveway, and it is possible for guests to utilise my electricity. This can only be for short periods of time as I will need to park my car on the road, which would be quite inconvenient for me.
