Descrição
Hi fellow Workawayers,
I live in one of the beautiful beaches north of Cairns. I need help around my yard with general gardening, yard work, maintenance and basic building. I have doggies that enjoy a regular daily walk too. I have a few projects that I'd like some help with - raised garden beds and aquaponic set up (I am very keen on growing my own food), cleaning up a shed space to make a beautiful, peaceful retreat area and some general paving. I have a suburban property 400m away from the beach which would make a good base from which to explore the rest of the Cairns region. I welcome the exchange that Workaway offers and look forward to meeting folk from around the world. I'm also quite the adventurous sort so am happy to have workawayers tag along on my adventures.

Ajuda
I am very interested in supporting the local food industry and growing my own food. Work would be quite manual as I have a fair bit of active maintenance and basic building to do including the gardening. Anyone with basic building and carpentry experience would be most welcome. I love creativity - it comes in many forms and am very happy for international folk to contribute their artistic talents to help beautify my property.
