Description
We packed up our lives in New Zealand in June of 2019 and came to Australia with a backpack each. We bought a small caravan and 4WD on arrival in Queensland and began our adventure. We have spent our time with a great mix of volunteering exploring, paid work, camp hosting and traveling.
We love the outdoors and are always keen to hike and explore our surroundings. We had a small tent which allowed us to leave the caravan and explore more off the beaten track. In the last year we've sold the caravan and bought a Transit Van which we've converted to a campervan.
Our adventure began as a year away but we are loving our simple lifestyle and the freedom to explore, see wonderful sights, meet new people and gain new experiences so we have extended indefinitely.

This was a fantastic Workaway and an incredible experience for us. Aneesh and his family made us very welcome and the accommodation and food they provided us with was excellent.

Goodness me, where do I start ....
From day 1 they were always in contact with us, long before they actually arrived ....
They have a caravan, and were heading off to NZ, so, at our suggestion they left their caravan with us even though we said we might try and sell it whilst they were away :-) :-) Whilst they were in NZ I even told them that… read more

We had a wonderful Workaway experience with Marie and Graeme. They are both so thoughtful and helpful. We were heading south to see family for a few weeks prior to our Workaway and they kindly suggested we leave our caravan at their place which worked out perfectly for us and saved us towing it unnecessarily for a few hundred kms.

We loved it! Gaye was a fabulous host. So friendly, so informative, so enthusiastic and energetic, and such a personality. Her meals were amazing, the property is gorgeous, the wildlife great and Dolly the dog super cute.
We were given lots of small projects and just enjoyed helping out and being a small part of this off grid property.

It was an absolute delight to host Robb & Dianne. I so much enjoyed hearing of their exciting travels and dare devil adventures. Its always a pleasure to meet people who are so open to new experiences and not waiting till they are at retirement age to embrace travel. Robb and Dianne transformed my overgrown, manky, leaf-filled and sludgey pond… read more

Rob and Dianne were extraordinary workawayers, skilled, motivated, showing initiative and – as if that was not enough – also highly independent in their caravan, while being excellent company when we had a chance to all sit down and have a yarn together.
It was great to have you staying at our place, thanks in particular Rob for designing and… read more

Wolfgang and Kim made our very first Workaway experience a positive and memorable one. They were very accommodating and made us feel like part of the family.
They were super easy to chat with and together we were able to work out what they needed doing and how we could help.
