  Description

  Update MERRY MICKMAS If looking for a place to celebrate the festive season, having morning surf then back to enjoy the bush with prawns and beers
  
  Hi there Mick here from Shark Creek.in the beautiful Clarence Valley, where over 50% of the shire is Nat. Park or nature reserves, from beaches, rivers( Clarence river -the biggest on east coast of Aust)
  I am a single never married still looking lol, retired 50s Aussie on an 100 acre off grid paradise. Home amongst the gumtrees. I am creating a self sufficient lifestyle based on permaculture , organic and reduce, reuse and recycle principles.
  Easy going and love music especially sitting around the bush tv / fire,
  Casual easy going with an emphasis on smiles, laughs and enjoyment . It is a lifestyle not a job.
  I have been involved with Wwoofers for 34 years since starting the first Nimbin backpacker eco-tours from Byron bay in 1990. I left Byron “PAY “Bay 8 years ago as it is too busy, exspensive thesedays. Clarence valley has more natural wonders, friendlier people and less traffic and rivers and better beaches ie Sandon River
  I need help with , gardens ,building, maintenance and care of my pets-3 dogs, 2 sheep and chickens atm. Very casual work program I am in my last quarter setting up the last chapter.
  I am creating a sanctuary for similar minded environmental conscious people who can help me create my vision for a self substaining , small happy little family of nature conscious free spirited, open minded crew.
  Life is to be lived, enjoyed and by supplying my own needs like water, solar power, food etc I become less reliant on external sources- self sufficient equal less control/reliance by others.
  
  There is wildlife like the rare and threatened coastal Emu, kangaroos, Goannas, Kookaburras, Brolgas and more all around and great local trails to explore. Mountain biking or hiking
  30 minutes to the beaches of Yamba and Broomshead ,I am situated in a great location.
  Can teach you to surf, fish
  I have a BSc Environmental Science so can teach you about Mother Earth our home that needs more respect and am doing my bit to improve my environment.
