Help working on a solar Passive House in the Blue Mountains in New South Wales, Australia

  Descrição

  Hello workawayers,
  Here in the Blue mountains we have rock climbing, canyoning in summer, bike riding, lots of amazing hiking and lots of bird and animal watching right here on our doorstep. I love to do any of these adventurous activities on my days off. For me eating healthily and trying to grow a little veggie garden are part of living simply in this area. I also like to live by the motto of treating others as I would want to be treated myself.
  I am a carpenter and joiner and have lots of building experience with a variety of building techniques.
  Previously I have spent many years travelling to adventurous places and always enjoy hearing peoples stories of experiences on the road.

  The house will be built in the lovely Blue Mountains. It Is a beautiful place full of amazing places to explore. I am happy to take workers on small climbing trips, and show them around the area on days off.
  In exchange for help with building the house I am offering a place to stay in the blue mountains which is in a lovely bush setting. I can introduce the workers to the benefits of building a house that won't require much heating or cooling due to its solar passive design.

  Ajuda

  It has finally been approved by council, I am very excited.......
  I am looking for help with moving and laying concrete blocks in April....
  The unglamourous excavation work has finally begun, footings are about to be poured so help with the brickwork is happening in April..
  
  I am looking for any skilled and non skilled help who would like to learn how to build a house that will be extra insulated, incorporate solar passive techniques, and built in a lovely location. The help will be quite physical at times so people who are fit and self motivated would be ideal.
  
  When there are no building tasks to be done, help around the property would be much appreciated, they will include tending to a small veggie garden, moving materials, gardening and moving fire wood.

  Acomodação

  There is a self contained caravan on site for the helpers on the property which is in a semi bush area of Mt Victoria. I am also in the process of making a camping spot as well. There is a composting toilet and water is collected through water tanks on site.
  
  There are a couple of options in regard to meals which depends on how much the workawayers are wanting to do each day. I can see it is going to be tricky for me to do the work and make the meals....... So this might be agreed apon on a daily basis. I will have lots of food here and we can agree on what is happening each day. It will be predominately vegetarian as that is predominantly what I eat. But I am totally flexible with the shopping and more than happy to buy what ever the helpers would prefer.
  I am totally happy to discuss this further so that we can come to mutual agreement about it all as well 😊
