  Description

  Help in the garden and painting
  
  I am a musician, artist and live in a beautiful federation home in the Blue Mountains with my 26 yr old, a friend and adorable chooks. Our home is located in Katoomba 2 blocks from town and 2 blocks from the national park. I am currently getting my garden into top shape for spring and summer. I need help with weeding and pruning and also some painting and preparation if you have experience.

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  It's Spring here at the moment and my garden is glorious. We are a very happy household and have adorable chooks. I am a good gardener and painter but finding it harder to do on my own so I can skill people up in those two areas. We live in a beautiful old federation home set in beautiful grounds with an orchard, chooks and pets. I live with my 26 yr old and another friend. I am a musician and artist so always welcome musicians to jam and artists who want to make an artistic imprint on my home. I am also an awesome vegetarian cook so can pass on some great recipes. I do not cook meat. Not all my meals are vegan especially as I have happy chooks so use the eggs, however, I can steer meals that way if I know in advance. There is no smoking on the property.
  
  Katoomba is home to the 3 sisters (echo point) the no. 1 attraction in NSW. We are about a 15-20 min walk from the 3 sisters we are also close to the National park entrance and the town centre (famous for good coffee and known as the slow food capital of Australia -not that you'll need that as I am a good slow food cook too). There are many good op shops and other interesting shops in Katoomba and nearby Leura. There are a number of top rate bush walks very close to us. I have basic maps. There is free live music 2-3 nights a week in Katoomba. Also my garden is a beautiful place to walk in.
