Descripción
We are a middle aged couple who live in a big old house on 5 acres, 27kms from Brisbane CBD in the pretty Samford Valley. Our place is surrounded by horse paddocks and is only 20mins away from some gorgeous subtropical rainforest walks at Mt Glorious.
Mel (a geologist) works in the city 5 days and I work at the Museum 3 days per week. It would be best if you have your own car as we are 10kms out of our village and 16 mins mins away from the closest train station. We have a self contained, air conditioned 2 bedroom cottage with bathroom, kitchenette, living room WIFI and a pool to cool off in summer. Non-smokers only please. Gluten free, vegetarians and vegans are most welcome and we eat meat as well. We would love you to join us for dinners in the evenings to chat about your travels and we would include you in community events when they happen.
We need help with landscaping in front of our new barn and painting our renovated front verandah railings, also setting up our new wicking veggie growing beds. Your help would be greatly appreciated.
We have 2 boys who are both married. They are creative young adults. Josh (33) is a sound designer and lives in Iceland with his wife, Jof, and Sam (31) is an artist who lives about 20 minutes away with his Belgium wife, Xanna and their baby, Atlas. We all love travelling and we enjoy meeting people from all corners of the globe to extend our understanding of the world. We are interested in sustainable living and new ideas. With your help we could have our landscaping looking really good much quicker than if we were just on our own. -

Algo más...
It would be desirable to have your own transport as there is limited public transport to our house. Some of us use the train and car to travel to and from work so options to tag along are always possible. A car would also allow flexibility to enjoy the many coffee shops in Samford village and the surrounding towns like Dayboro, Mt Nebo and Mt Glorious. The beautiful beaches of the Sunshine Coast (north) and the Gold Coast (south) are about 1-2 hrs away and Byron Bay is about 2 1/2 hours away.

Espacio para aparcar autocaravanas
We have 5 acres of land, 3 of which are flat and suitable for a van. We have 2 places with access to electricity and one tap closeby to provide water. The bathroom, living room and kitchen in the cottage would be yours to use too.
