Descripción
We are an off-grid, family-run hostel in a peaceful forest on a hill in Tasmania, Australia. We are a friendly large family, and we love welcoming travellers from all backgrounds, religions, and nationalities. We love cooking fresh food from the garden and sharing our table with travellers. We love books, music, travel, history, languages, and meeting people from all over the world.

Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje
You will learn about off-grid living with solar power, wood-fueled hot water, rainwater, and composting toilets. You will be surrounded by native forests and our amazing wildlife. We are a culturally mixed family with a lot of traveling experience and we love to introduce people to life on our island state.

We are open about our faith in Jesus Christ. You may ask questions about this while you are here, and we are happy to answer. We are also happy to pray with you. But if you do not want to have spiritual discussions, you are still welcome.
Ayuda
My husband and I and our young family run our hostel. We need help from workawayers mostly with simple outdoor/gardening jobs like:
path edging, digging garden beds, mulching, and weeding.
If you have more experience, we would love your help in wood splitting, fencing, building a chicken house or a deck, etc.
As long as you enjoy working in nature and getting your hands dirty, you will be happy here.

I really like this lovely place. Pierce and Christina create very good atmosphere here. Not only their family members but also the backpackers who live here, they are all very friendly and nice, always share and help each other. You would be cared all the time.

Pierce and Christina always are worried about whether you are overworking, and care if… read more

We loved hosting Yuting. She has such a joyful personality and worked so diligently at every task, starting early and often going above and beyond what we asked her to do. Among other things, she helped us weed a tremendous number of thistles, keep up with the dishes on a week when our dishwasher was broken, and plant some beautiful deciduous… read more

My sister and I had a lovely time at the hostel! From the dinners and lunches with the family to the beautiful surroundings, this is a fantastic place to be. We did mostly gardening/weeding, laundry, a little painting, and other household tasks like sweeping and cleaning the kitchen. The hostel the family runs is very clean, cozy, and is a very… read more

We loved having Yvie and Raque at our place! They fit right in to the life of the hostel and our home, and did a great job with painting, cleaning, maintenance, site care, and gardening. It was easy to hand off tasks to them with minimal instructions and get excellent results, and they often did over and above what we asked. They will be missed!

Justin was a wonderful helper for us. He was very honest and conscientious, he takes pride in doing things well, and he was always wanting to do more work, not less! We asked him to build some dry stone walls for us for an outdoor entertaining area and he built them perfectly without instructions from us. He had good chainsaw skills and processed… read more

This is a beautiful, off the grid hostel in the Huon Valley. I had an amazing stay, and learnt loads about sustainable living. It's a lovely location to stay at, with stunning views and lots of really cool places to explore. There are mountains, waterfalls, caves etc.
The whole family was really lovely and very welcoming, and I really enjoyed my… read more

Thank you so much Peirce and Christina to having me!

First of all, their house and hostel take place in a very amazing area. Close to Hobart, the hill where they live offers a great view to the mountain, beautiful sunsets. On the night we can see the milky way, lots of stars and wild wallabies.

The work was not hard at all and very interesting… read more

We loved having Ariane as part of our family and our hostel last week. She built us a large ornamental garden bed, diligently taking the project from start to finish - including breaking up hard ground, shovelling soil, constructing a fence, planning plantings, doing the planting itself, and mulching the new garden. All these were new to her, and… read more

We appreciate Perice and Christina and their super active children.
They must have needed big patience with our english but they've been kind and treated us like a part of family.
Children have tried to talked us over and over even though we don't understand very much...sorry about that ( ´_ゝ`)
But we were really glad.
We enjoyed staying in your… read more

Gonzalo stayed with us for a week, helping us with landscaping, weeding, and installing a clothesline. He is a gentlemanly and kind person who is happy to listen to instructions and try new things. He was very patient with our kids and left his room neat and clean. We would welcome him back any time.

I enjoyed a beautiful week. I was very lucky that this was my first workaway host. Peirce and Christina were very nice and helped with my English and with my job search. I really enjoyed my work here, and I really recommend this family. They had seven energetic and very fun and funny daughters:grin::grin::grin::grin::grin:
