Ourselves and family?
Friendly and warm, love people and working together with you. We believe in give and take and treating people well. We do need help as we are two retired folks but not "oldies". Our children and grandchildren live far away so we go for "temporary adoption" of young people. We are the odd couple; Ozzie and Asian, interesting backgrounds and love a good joke and are experienced travellers.
Project?
We need help to landscape our 5 plus acres on rural property; plenty of planting, weeding, building garden beds, painting and general maintenance for our machinery and we need your creative juices and ideas too. We just need ONE DILIGENT, CREATIVE HELPER ( or two ) to help form our garden and paint erected fencing our property. Its pleasant work with the natural bushland only metres away.
You can hike to beautiful spots along the coastline. Camp in nearby National Parks and reserves. We live in Gulmarrad, New South Wales close to Maclean, Yamba, Illuka, Angourie and Broomshead beaches.
The area has huge rivers, lakes, islands and wonderful climate, white sandy beaches not far away. Surfing ,fishing and bush-walking are available in your leisure time. So much to do and no one has been bored yet!

Gulmarrad is accessible to state forest reserves and national parks and camping areas. Best fishing spots as well as scenic places. Surfing and sand boarding. Whale watches and dolphins! So you will have a look at farms, towns, beaches and real Aussie lifestyle.

Swimming, surfing, water rafting, river ferry cruises, bush walks, coastal walks, wild bird-life and many natural activities. Not much work that pays in the area, sorry! Maybe in Yamba
