  Description

  Hi Adventurist,
  We are ,Corinne (46) and Clovis (10), Roalfe (3) our Terrier dog. We have relatives and friends who live nearby so sometimes our home can be full and social and other times quiet and still with the sounds of birds.
  We also have a beautiful vibrant man, Andrew (50) who has recently moved into the house. He is a fabulous care taker, and manages the property in our absence. He is enthusiastic, vibrant and a pleasure to connect play and work with.
  
  During the school term, we are living schooling and working in BRISBANE. Our workawayers guests are welcome to stay there with us as well if convenient to your arrival and departure travels. Some times we can provide transport between the places when we all travel together.
  During the school and summer holidays, and the odd weekend here and there, Clovis and I go back to our home on the property in Riley's Hil we would be accompanying guest in both locations.
  
  I love people and we love learning new things that different personalities bring to our lives. We are passionate about community, the environment, healthy living and the space we live in.
  Various interests in our family are: humanity, art, drawing, nature, out door recreation, gardening, surfing, swimming, cooking, music, wildlife, bushwalking, travel and trampoline jumping and dancing in our pjs.
  We with the help of family, friends and tradesmen, we built our own home which took us many years, Its continually needing cleaning, maintenance small improvements and organising. We have also already renovated an old cottage on the property it’s separate to the main house. We also have guest staying in here from time to time.
  
  We are also continuously developing and maintaining permaculture gardens. We put our guest to work in areas they are experienced or qualified or capable and interested in.
  So in other words we find a task to match your skills. We also help alongside guest as a team. We would hope you put in a fair amount time into helping us in projects and the running of everyday life. 4 or 5 hours, There is also plenty of time where you can have free time or we all do something pleasurable outings together.

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  We have been hosting foreign travelers for more than 10 years, we are also on other websights. All our guest have really enjoyed themselves, often choosing to stay much longer than they originally planned, and many have become long term friends. I have been complimented on my patience, parenting, compassion and teaching methods. Guest generally leave feeling they have been loved and become one of the family members. I have helped many people learn and practice new skills, enjoy new experiences, as well as improve their english. We have introduced our guest to the wider community, Australian lifestyle, Australian native wildlife (fauna and flora), recreation experiences in the great outdoors, and shared some local hidden treasures as well as popular tourist destinations. But what they also get is day to day living in rural community in country Australia. And meeting many different native animals around the yard.
  Now our guest have opportunity to join us in the Australian city also, or get transport to or from brisbane on occasion , When we visit there for work or school .
