Originally we are from Russia. We travelled a lot and still can't stop travelling, so we understand workawyers very well and trying to help young travellers as much as we can. We spent in Australia over 20 years and know country and local area very well. Usually we have very interesting conversations and activities with our workawayers. We can direct you to good bushwalks, waterfalls, water holes.
