Description
We are friendly and warm, love people and working alongside with you. Are you keen to learn something new daily? We believe in give and take and treating people well. We do need help as we are two retired folks but not "oldies". Our children and grandchildren live far away so we go for "temporary adoption" of young people. We are the odd couple; Ozzie and Asian, interesting backgrounds and love a good joke and are experienced travellers.
Project?
We just need helpers.
Help to clean up, unpack and make a home in our new place in Gloucester town in NSW.
You will have opportunity to explore beautiful spots along the mountain ranges. Camp in National Parks and reserves.
The area has huge rivers, lakes, fishing and bush-walking are available in your leisure time. So much to do and no one has been bored yet!
