    Descrição

    Ourselves and family?
    Friendly and warm, love people and working together with you. 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 need urgent help to get rid of all the weeds after the rains! To get our garden pretty and landscaped to have a tiny Japanese or Balinese waterway. Creative minds needed for our 5 plus acres on rural property; plenty of planting, weeding, building garden beds, painting and general maintenance for our machinery and we need your creative juices and ideas too. We just need ONE DILIGENT, CREATIVE HELPER ( or two ) . Its pleasant work with the natural bushland only metres away.

    The other project is to clean up the big shed. We want to have a big garage sale in March.

    You can hike to beautiful spots along the coastline. Camp in nearby National Parks and reserves. We live in Gulmarrad, New South Wales close to Maclean, Yamba, Illuka, Angourie and Broomshead beaches.
    The area has huge rivers, lakes, islands and wonderful climate, white sandy beaches not far away. Surfing ,fishing and bush-walking are available in your leisure time. So much to do and no one has been bored yet!

    Algo mais...

    Our home is in Gulmarrad, 5 mins to MacLean, Yamba (18km), Brooms Head (14km) and Byron Bay (120km). 2 hours away from Gold Coast. Maclean celebrates their Scottish heritage by having a great Easter show of bagpipes, parades and markets. Christmas is fun here like in Byron Bay only less crowded.

    Gulmarrad is accessible to state forest reserves and national parks and camping areas. Best fishing spots as well as scenic places. Surfing and sand boarding. Whale watches and dolphins! So you will have a look at farms, towns, beaches and real Aussie lifestyle.
    Weather wise, its nice and warm. For tourist activities, look at Visit Clarence Valley, NSW. There are also lots of market gardens, lovely Saturday and Sunday markets, art galleries and local wild-life. Swimming, surfing, water rafting, river ferry cruises, bush walks, coastal walks, wild bird-life and many natural activities. Not much work that pays in the area, sorry! Maybe in Yamba ( 30 mins away) and Byron Bay (one and a half hours away) during tourist season.

    WE REALLY WANT A HELPER AND NOT Laz-abouts. Those with a little building and general maintenance and gardening skill will do well. If you are helpful and eager to do the chores and learn if you don't know, we'll love to teach you. We do get away for short trips and week-ends and you are welcome to join us. Bush camping!! Caravaning! 4 WD off road. Koalas in the wild sightings!

    You can learn Mandarin and Malay/Indonesian and English from us. Learn Asian cooking and Aussie dishes.

    You can choose to come by many ways, air, train, bus coaches or car. Details provided when you want to come. Look at Australian map before you come. Any questions, I am happy to answer. No worries.
