Description
I'm a long time Workawayer myself and host who would love some help with a few projects including ongoing work in the garden and organising the house. Would welcome input and help from creative people who can help me create a welcoming garden and home.
I'm from Glasgow originally and have made Australia home for the past 19 years after a decade living and working in Hong Kong. The guest rooms are a comfortable double and queen and we have high-speed wifi and Foxtel or if technology isn't your thing, hang out on the back deck or beside the pool. You also have the option to walk to the beautiful beach just 980metres from the house or take a stroll around the local nature reserve for birds.
Bunbury is a bit of a hidden gem in the South West and is close to Margaret River and Ferguson Valley Wine regions. It has a budding small bar vibe and an amazing coastline with dolphins to be seen almost daily. It has all the basics from a city without any of the mad traffic or hoards of people.
We may have a dog as we regularly foster for BARRC, a local rescue, so doggy cuddles might be an additional bonus. I’m a slightly self-confessed crazy chicken lady and had a rather majestic Hentastic Eggporium ( complete with tv, heater and comfy chairs) that sadly was damaged in a recent storm and had to be removed. The main focus just now is redesigning and rebuilding the girls a new home. This will involve relocating my current raised garden beds and planting some new fruit tress so the bulk of the help I need just now will focus on this. -

Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre
Bunbury is a small multicultural city ( big town really) with everything you need and endless beaches to roam along. There are markets and artistic happenings as well as a thriving small bar and live music scene. It is located two hours south of Perth and is serviced by a daily bus service and regular train service from Perth city centre. There is also an airport in Busselton which is 45 minutes drive away and has direct flights on Jetstar from Melbourne and Sydney.

Aide
I'd like help in the garden, generally involving weeding, planting as well as possible projects to organise spaces, painting and decorating or boring stuff like spring cleaning. My Hentastic Eggporium Chicken coop needs to be rebuilt which will be fun.
I generally say come for a couple of days and we’ll see how we get on. The expectations for visiting workaways is to work for 4 or 5 hours a day depending on the work and weather (if too hot we start early ish and finish early ish) Usual deal of two days off per week which again is flexible depending on jobs and what you might want to do or see in the area. -

Hébergement
Comfortable double or queen bedroom with Wi-Fi and own bathroom ( unless there are other visitors) - the house is spacious with a large undercover deck area complete with leather sofa, chairs, and a bar!
I have a nice ladies bike available to borrow ( tyres may need pumping :-) ) -
Autres infos...
We are super close to the beach and just about 3 kilometres from the city centre. There are numerous shops, bars, live music venues, a theatre and cinema as well as daily bus and train services to Perth and Mandurah.
We are an hour away from the world renowned Margaret River wine region as well as Ferguson Valley which is only a 25 minutes drive. Bunbury and Busselton both have craft breweries and great restaurants. -

Five chickens
We have lively chickens that are possibly the most spoilt in the world. Wednesday, Hettie, Flower, Gabriella and Pip Squeak ( Pippy) live in the. Eggtastic Eggporium and get to free range often much to the detriment of my garden!
