Descrição
We have dedicated our lives to saving / helping Australian wildlife. Our home is full of Australian animals - mainly kangaroos and birds with the occasional wombat, echidna, lizard or emus. All the animals have been rescued and either have injuries or are babies whose mothers have been killed.
We also have a large Aboriginal art gallery (with art, didgeridoos and artefacts) / opal shop / display underground opal mine and museum as well as the Kangaroo Orphanage in the main street of Coober Pedy, the OPAL capital of the world. Free didgeridoo lessons.

You need to have a good sense of humour and be prepared to live with baby kangaroos jumping around the house!
This is an unique opportunity to live in one of the most interesting towns in the world, learn about opal (Australia's national gemstone), learn about Aboriginal art and heritage plus learn for free to play the didgeridoo.

Ajuda
**************************************************************
We are in need of help to carry out some general maintenance work, mainly in the kangaroo yards and some help washing walls and cupboards in the house ready for painting. If you can use a paint brush that would be handy as we have painting that needs doing as well.
You must be prepared to stay for a minimum of 8 days.
If you can help and have an eye for detail please contact us.
Please advise your current location and tell us your previous work history; paid or voluntary work here in Australia or your home country.
**************************************************************
We are always looking for help with a variety of tasks - DIY, cleaning the yard, some light construction work, fencing, gardening, painting, helping out in the gallery, household tasks and/or general housekeeping. Being able to operate power tools, do some concreting or tiling and tasks without supervision will be considered a big asset. There is always something that needs doing around the place.
Your hours vary according to the weather, averaging approximately 5 hours per day with plenty of time off to explore Coober Pedy.
We have a property in the Flinders Ranges that we are renovating/fencing when we can and there may be an opportunity to work explore there as well.

We weren't supervised all the time, but when we needed help, Terry was always there. He even took time to show as around Coober Pedy and his mine.

It was an absolute pleasure sharing our home with you both. All the kangaroos and us two are missing you. We look forward to the day you return. xxxxx
