Descrição

Hello!

We are a Franco-Australian family: both parents are French, and both kids were born and raised in Aussie!
After years of travelling separately, Jean-Christophe (JC, 46) and I, Coline (39), met in Cairns in 2018. JC arrived with a wonderful little boy, Silvère (11), and a few years later, Timéo (5) joined the family for the adventure.
We love camping, spending time with friends, going to festivals, travelling, and much more. Resort-style holidays are not really our cup of tea, so this year we decided to volunteer in Tassie!
JC and I have been using Workaway for many years. As a family, we have volunteered at festivals, helped with tree planting, and pitched in on projects for friends. We are hard workers, so we're looking for a place with well-organized projects ready to get started (bonus points if you're building a cob house!).
We would also love to volunteer somewhere with other children so our kids can play together and make new friends. Our kids are very friendly and adapt quickly.
We want to show our children that there are many different ways of living, and we love learning from communities about collective action, self-sufficiency, and resilience.

Quais são suas habilidades?

We have experience in gardening, eco-building, housekeeping, monster-raising,...
JC is a horseman able to break, train, or just look after any member of the horse family (and dog as well). He's also a qualified carpenter and he's currently retraining as a baker. He's passionate about baking the best sourdough bread and would love to experiment in a clay oven.

Coline and Artur were ideal help at our place! They were eager to learn and build, in fact they helped motivate us to get going on projects. They contributed to cooking, cleaning, and childcare readily, on top of a full day of labouring on our outdoor kitchen project. We felt totally comfortable with them and never tired of their presence during … read more

Eric, Lauren and Amber are a very nice and welcoming family. We spent one month with them, discovering the beautiful forest where they live. We worked by ourself on an outdoor kitchen, so it was a little challenging and very interesting. We had a lot of fun with Eric and Lauren, who like to share their way of life, including recreation like … read more

We spent one month with Monika and Fred for an unforgettable wilderness experiment ! They are very welcoming and well organized to host people in this very remote place. The work was very interesting and we learn a lot. There is a lot of thing to do in the valley: hiking (if you are not afraid of the bear !), fishing, wildlife viewing, sauna and a … read more

Arthur and Coline are a lovely couple who stayed with us for about five days. My only regret is that they could not stay longer and that I could not spend more time with them!
They are very helpful and pleasant, and did quite a lot in just the few days they were here, from hard work hauling dead wood in the garden to cooking some delicious meals … read more

Arthur and Coline were great!! They helped a fellow boater clean, sand and paint stain his boat then cared for another boat very well. They became avid and welcomed in our community. I did not host them personally due to some conflicts but it was an amazing time just the same. They cooked for a dock party and participated in food and song. … read more
