Descripción
Hello,
In Grevillea Court, Wanneroo we need someone with planning skills or able to draw up building plans- we want to create a small eco village using environmental materials. I also need someone with basic handyman skills or mechanic skills and anyone good at IT - setting up a laptop etc.
We provide a private bedroom, comfortable beds, bathroom, use of laundry, free wi-fi, and bikes. We can be flexible with work hours if you have job intervies. We can help with advice on finding work and will give good references to good helpers.
The property is a large 4.5-acre property that we plan to set up as a sustainable community. We appreciate helpers with the following skills, carpentry, fencing, planting - less hours would be required for skilled tradespeople, otherwise we ask for five hours of good work each day, with 2 days off. When considering a fair exchange, the actual work achieved is fairer than counting hours.
As the cost of living in Australia almost doubled this past year, particularly food, accommodation and electricity, we ask for a fair exchange of labour to cover our costs in providing a fully equipped well above average home for you.
I need positive, self-motivated helpers who can work well on their own and understand a fair exchange and a willingness to contribute cheerfully and see a project to the end. I maintain a happy atmosphere and appreciate good humour.
We have some camping equipment you can borrow and a place to leave your car safely if you are going to Bali or? For those who get FIFO work on the mines it can be a place to come back to on your week off. We also have the safety gear necessary for a photo showing you know how to wear it and helmets, goggles, hi-viz jackets, etc to borrow.
We don't have animals to look after apart from native Quenda's ( bandicoot), Bungarra's (lizards), nocturnal native animals that we make sure to give fresh water and a snack at night. A new addition is our 5 month old ridgeback/staffy who is very playful. There is also a plethora of all sorts of birds. Along with the eco-village we are establishing a wildlife sanctuary. Sadly all around us is being developed for housing and many native animals are loosing their homes. -

We are pioneers in this area - we were born here and are the oldest living inhabitants . We care about the environment and are happy to teach skills in caring for plants, travel in Australia, and places to see on the West coast.
I have an extensive library of handyman magazines and a great collection of gardening books, (and books on most topics, just ask). -

Algo más...
There are some nice walks (eg around Lake Joondalup) we are half an hour from Yanchep National Park and 2 hours drive to Moor River and the Pinnacles with some great photo opportunities.
I can pick you up from the station or a bus comes directly to Elizabeth St, Wanneroo, it easier for me to pick you up there.
You can work full days and then take full days off for job interviews or touring. Hours of work depend more on the skill involved and work achieved, rather than a set 5hrs - so long as it is a fair exchange on both sides. -
