  ** no availability over x-mas /NYE”
  
  Couple preferred.
  
  We are a relaxed Swedish/Australian family living in lovely Balmain in a large house just 10 minutes ferry or bus ride to Sydney CBD.
  
  Our family consists of Mum, Dad, and three boys, 16, 14 and & 12 years old. (Zac, Oscar and Ali !) The boys are pretty grow up now and don’t need to be babysat, they are polite and respectful.
  
  Home help is primarily what we need someone to run the house with food shopping (we pay), cooking, cleaning and washing clothes folding etc.
  
  We also have interesting projects. Current projects are
  
  1. Building an ebike so skills in bike mechanic and a a plus - or even the willingness to learn.
  
  Dave knows how to do this, however, does not have time and can show you.
  
  2. Painting
  
  3. Boat maintenance.- again. Dave knows what to do and can show you.
  
  In general, any handy person skill are a bonus as there are many interesting projects to complete yet the help will mainly be cooking, cleaning and doing household tasks.
  
  
  We have had many travelers and long-term stayers living with us before and it has worked out really well.
  
  
  We are both x-travelers ourselves (10 years on the road traveling together around the world) and we know how wonderful and enriching it is to get to share stories, experiences and backgrounds with others who are doing the similar thing as us. We also know how nice it is when you get to live in a clean, private and un-crowded environment with a warm power shower!
  
  Of course, in exchange for your help around our house we provide and share the clothes washer and drying facilities, unlimited fast and stable internet, bikes etc. We even have a Spa bath you can use too if you wish.
  
  
  The help will be up to 4-5 hours a day (usually less) over 5 days, exchange of good quality food and accommodation. We are usually flexible in times to help and you can even help more hours one day and less the next to allow for day trips and job interviews etc. We need you to be able to cook, wash and assist in routines.
  
  Great opportunity to live in a beautiful and central location for free. Walk to the ferries, busses, supermarket, swimming pool, pubs, restaurants, and cafes. Balmain is a lovely suburb surrounded by Sydney Harbour with lots to do.
  
  Look forward to hearing from you.
