Descripción
Hello! I'm Simon from Belgium.
I am currently in Australia on a working holiday visa and I am looking for some good experiences outside of the big cities.
i love nature and growing up in a big city like Brussels i would love to learn how to live in more rural areas. I'm interested in learning how to live self sufficiently, like growing your own food and raising animals.
I am passionate about wildlife and i love learning about plants. I am also a an artist (sculptor) by education and I make a lot of music on my computer, I'm also able to play bass.
I worked with a gardening company the last year so i have experience working outside, trimming edges, mowing the lawn and the lot, and I'm not afraid of getting dirty and doing physical work outside.
i also love cooking! I make really good soups and I'm able to make (amateur) sashimi :)

Simon stayed with us for seven weeks. We are fortunate to have him as our first workaway volunteer. We have extensive length of bush tracks along our river that hasn’t been cut for two years. Simon helped to recover them all, that required some good skills with landscaping equipments. He also built a possum proof garden bed for my herbs, helped… read more

We enjoyed having Simon and Yolente stay here at Narara Ecovillage. Good humoured, interesting and friendly - they connected well with our family and people in the village. On top of that, their work was top quality and we enjoyed having them around. We wish them well on their travels!

Michael was a great host! Even though he got diagnosed with covid right before our stay, he made sure we could settle in and kept it safe. The property was beautiful and we got to stay in a luxurious studio with a real comfy bed. Lots of privacy and also a swimming pool! We got to explore Mullumbimby, which is a lovely small hippie town, with nice… read more

We fell in love with Simon's demeanour, his willingness to jump in and do anything that was asked. He got along really well with our kids, becoming Curtis's new bestie. He was also the first landscaper to visit us and was very productive, so much so that we recommended him for a local part time job in that industry. Enjoy your travels Simon and we… read more
