Create a peaceful home and garden on the Sunny Gold Coast, Australia

  Descripción

  Hi Workawayers!
  
  I'm Tanja, and I live in a vibrant, central suburb of the Gold Coast. I'm transforming part of my home into a personal wellness retreat, and I need a helping hand with the key first step!
  
  The Main Project:
  My single carport is currently paved with brick pavers over soil. The surface is uneven and sloped. I need a capable helper or couple of helpers to lift the pavers, level the soil/ground beneath, and relay the pavers to create a perfectly flat, stable base. This base will be the new home for my infrared sauna!
  
  This is a hands-on, physical project that requires some strength, patience, and ideally, a bit of DIY or landscaping experience. It's a satisfying job with a clear and wonderful outcome.
  
  Other Help:
  Once the main project is done (or if we need a break from it), I'd love help with other tasks to make my home a tranquil "zen" space:
  
  · Gardening and creating a peaceful outdoor retreat.
  · General handyman/woman tasks (hanging art, installing a small camera, sanding/painting).
  · Home organisation and styling (decluttering wardrobes, etc.).
  · Creative teaching (I'd love to learn pottery, drawing, or painting!).
  · Feeding my sweet cat when I'm away.
  
  What You Get:
  In exchange for your help, you'll have:
  
  · Your own comfortable private room in my calm home.
  · Your kitchen to use as you please (I use the outdoor kitchen).
  · Access to the pool and garden.
  · A fantastic location: walking distance to the beach, cafes, shops, and the HOTA arts centre.
  · A flexible schedule – we'll agree on a fair arrangement of hours that works for both of us.
  
  I'm looking for a kind, capable, and easygoing person to join me in this project. If you have some practical skills and like the idea of creating a wellness space on the beautiful Gold Coast, I would love to hear from you!
  
  Please message me telling me a bit about yourself and any relevant experience.
  
  Please note: This is help wanted for my private home and garden, I am not a business.

  Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje

  You’ll be staying in a unique Gold Coast location, close to beaches, parks, and local arts culture. I’m always open to cultural exchange and love learning new creative skills, especially from those with an artistic or holistic background.
  
  I’d be happy to share local tips, peaceful spots, and simple meals — and I’m always up for learning something new from you, too.

  Hello! I'm Tanja – a creative and easygoing homeowner in the heart of the Gold Coast. I'm on a mission to "zenify" my space, transforming it into a peaceful sanctuary for wellness and creativity. My home is your base for exploring everything this amazing area has to offer, and I'd love for you to be a part of this journey!
  
  The Vision & The Project:
  The cornerstone of my plan is to install an infrared sauna in my carport, turning it into my personal wellness corner. To do this, I need a volunteer with some practical skill and strength for the main project:
  
  Leveling the Sauna Base: The carport is currently paved with brick pavers on a sloped, soil base. I need a helper to lift the pavers, expertly level the ground beneath, and relay the pavers to create a perfectly flat and stable surface. If you have experience with DIY, landscaping, or just have a good head for practical tasks and don't mind physical work, this is for you!
  
  Beyond the Bricks:
  My vision extends beyond the sauna! Depending on your interests and skills, I'd love your help with any of the following to create our tranquil retreat:
  
  · Garden Magic: Helping to nurture and create a beautiful, tranquil garden.
  · Handy Help: Tasks like hanging art, installing a security camera, or small painting projects.
  · Styling & Organisation: Helping me declutter and refresh spaces like my wardrobe.
  · Creative Exchange: If you're into pottery, painting, or drawing, I would be thrilled to learn from you!
  · Pet Care: Simply feeding my lovely, low-maintenance cat when I'm away.
  
  Your Home on the Gold Coast:
  In exchange for your help, you'll receive:
  
  · A comfortable, private room in my home.
  · Your own kitchen to use freely.
  · Access to the pool, garden, and all the comforts of home.
  · A prime Gold Coast location: Just a walk away from the beach, cafes, shops, and the HOTA arts and culture hub.
  · A flexible schedule—we'll work out a fair hours arrangement that gives you plenty of time to explore.
  
  I'm looking for a kind, responsible, and capable person to share this experience with. If you're passionate about creating beautiful spaces, enjoy a mix of physical and creative tasks, and want to live near the beach on the stunning Gold Coast, please get in touch!
  
  Tell me a bit about yourself, your travels, and what skills you'd love to bring.
  
  Please note: This is help wanted for my private home and garden, I am not a business.

  I really appreciate clear, kind communication and a sense of care in the work you do — whether you’re planting a flower, sanding a panel, or helping create a little oasis.
