Un coucher de soleil doré baigne les vagues de l'océan d'une lumière chaude. Une mouette solitaire se tient sur le sable humide, se reflétant paisiblement dans ce paysage serein et lumineux.
Les silhouettes des arbres encadrent une plage paisible au coucher du soleil, où un groupe de personnes et une silhouette solitaire se tiennent tranquillement au bord des vagues scintillantes de l'océan.
La photo montre un jardin avec des bananiers, une clôture en bois, une pelouse verdoyante et un auvent en plastique ondulé, le tout entouré de grands arbres forestiers.
Cette cuisine lumineuse est dotée d'une fenêtre ornée de deux vitraux représentant des fleurs, d'un grille-pain, d'une bouilloire, d'une plaque de cuisson, d'un petit four, de plans de travail en bois et d'une végétation à l'extérieur.
Cette véranda chaleureuse est agrémentée de meubles en osier, d'un tapis à motifs de feuilles noir et blanc, de guirlandes lumineuses, d'une kitchenette, d'une cloison en bambou, d'une vue sur l'extérieur et d'une décoration décontractée et accueillante.

    Description

    Please have a read of our full profile and if you feel you would be a great fit for our family and would love to have this Australian beachside experience please message with more about yourselves and why you think it will be a great experience for us all. If it sounds like a good fit we can then have a video chat. Our Workaway is for couples or friends travelling together.

    You will have private use of our adorable upcycled and reclaimed greenhouse cabin, 50 meters to the beach track and miles of unspoilt sand and surf, 20 minutes north of Byron Bay and 40 minutes south of The Gold Coast (35minutes from Coolangatta airport). For 25 hours per week/per couple/2 x friends shared between you (12.5 hours each) around the house and garden you will get a private accomodation with fridge, kettle and toaster and cooking equipment and a share bathroom (though we will be building a shower and toilet for the cabin!). You will also have basic wifi. The bus to Byron Bay town is just outside our house but having your own car is highly recommended if you want to explore the region. This will suit people who are strong and handy as it’s mostly cleaning and odd handy person/carpentry type jobs around the house and garden. A carpenter or someone with strong building or house painting skills would be a dream but not a must! If you are strong and happy to get your hands dirty in the garden or around the house this is perfect too.

    Our family is –
    Christina (Mum)
    Charlie 13 years old
    Henry 17 years old
    Luna the cat

    We are a friendly, noisy family! We are all very creative and love music. We love to travel and are very open minded. As a family we love to be busy, especially in the outdoors, gardening, walking on the beach, having a fire in our garden, camping, playing basketball and going to markets and our local cafe. We all love spending time with our friends and our home is normally busy and social. The boys love to be hanging with mates or playing basketball. Christina owns a small business and works from home. She is currently studying as well. She is also a musician.

    Our home is in South Golden Beach, New South Wales, 20 minutes north of Byron Bay and 40 minutes south of The Gold Coast (35minutes from Coolangatta airport). We live near the river and you are 50 meters from being able to launch a paddleboard or kayak. The surf beach track is 50 meters from our home. Having your own car is ideal as there is a bus at the end of our street but because this is a country area it only comes around 2 times a day. Christina is a single mum and passionate about edible gardens, suburban sustainable living and tiny house principals and your time with our family will be helping her create a home that fits these values.

    Hébergement

    You will have private use of our adorable upcycled and reclaimed greenhouse garden cabin. 50 meters to the beach track and miles of unspoilt sand and surf, 20 minutes north of Byron Bay and 40 minutes south of The Gold Coast (35minutes from Coolangatta airport). This is a private accomodation set away from the house, with fridge, kettle and toaster and cooking equipment and a share bathroom (though we will be building a shower and toilet for the cabin!). You will also have basic wifi. We can provide linen as well. For couple there is a double mattress and for singles 2 single mattresses. This is rustic, tropical accomodation, more like glamping, so perfect for nature lovers and campers.

    We are vegan/vegetarian (no meat and no fish) and we don’t ever eat meat or cook it in our home, including the greenhosue! You will be able to self cater your own basic vegan/vego meals in the cabin. There is a mini fridge, freezer, cook top, mini oven, kettle and toaster and the local farmers markets and supermarket are a short drive away.
