Descrição
Hi, my name is Dave. I traveled around Europe and the Middle East for 5 years in my twenties. More recently I've visited a bit of Asia and a lot of Australia. For the last couple of years, I travel away for work in blocks and then return home for periods between jobs to work on my house and gardens. Due to the nature of my work I will not know whether I can accept a booking request for greater than four weeks in advance.

I'm offering accommodation and all meals while I am at home working on my house and garden projects.

I currently have one older male housemate. Besides the house activities, I'm into rock climbing, yoga, guitar, circus, festivals and camping.

Staying with Dave was a great experience! He has a beautiful home in the blue mountains where you have plenty of opportunity to explore. I stayed with Dave for 8 days in exchange for helping him with his yard and a few tasks around the house as well. I was always comfortable with all the tasks Dave asked me to help with and if I ever had any… read more

Our stay at Dave‘s was absolutely amazing! The first day we went to a pub and had the most australian experience ever: ate Kangaroo & Crocodile pizza!

You will be spoiled if Saana and Felix ask to stay with you to work. These are beautiful people who actually enjoy the change from just sightseeing in their travels and want the chance to do something useful with their hands.

Agata was only able to stay with me for one day in the end but in that time we found time for interesting conversations and between us we knocked off a lot of the tasks I needed to get done in the garden. Agata is friendly, interesting and hard working and I would recommend her to other hosts.
