Descrição
Hello beautiful people :) We are a friendly, mature and respectful, outgoing couple, originally from New Zealand but have been living in Australia for the past 15 years or more. Having done the working life, it's now time for us to realise our dreams and create our own adventures. We are hardworking and well-skilled all-rounders, that are keen to see new places and make new friends around the world and experience various cultures.
Ultimately, our travels will see us helping out in a Farming or Eco environment, Construction of new buildings and structures, Landscaping and outdoors, tending a bar (Mike has RSA cert) or greeting guests and many other opportunities that will present themselves and allow us to interact with others. It is worth noting that we are not city people, so our best suited environments will find us in nature, near the bush or beach.

It was OUR pleasure to Host this awesome couple. How lucky were WE!
Mike and Kara are THE DREAM TEAM. Their work ethic is outstanding. No job was too big or small for them.
These were the projects…

Our trees are extra happy with all the mulch (as in MANY TRAILER loads) distributed amongst them.
2. SPRAYING

Occasionally in life, people cross your path and leave a life-long impression. And in the case of Workaway, Hosts become friends. For us, Catherine and Martin are two of those people.

Mike and Kara are fabulous. Despite over 2 weeks of miserable, wet weather their combination of great work ethic, a wide range of skills and attention to detail meant that they accomplished some bigger projects I have been putting off for ages, including a wooden fence and a wire mesh chook run.

Our experience with Gay and Aly was fantastic! We had our own separate accommodation which was real comfortable and away from the main house. The hours required were very easy and Gay was flexible about when and how we executed them. As well as this, Gay just said what needed to be done, and left you to it unsupervised. The work was fun, mostly… read more

We were very fortunate to have Mike and Kara for a week. It would be hard to find a nicer couple to have stay. Mike and Kara fitted in so we'll, it felt like we'd known them for a lot longer.
They were very easy going with an excellent work ethic and made a great difference to our garden, getting on top of all the spring time jobs.

For us, Workaway is about a fair exchange, meeting like-minded people and experiencing culture and food. Our time with Bernie and Ivan gave us all of this and more!
Their profile is on point, and says exactly how it is. The work we did was all in the garden and was no more than the 3 hours per day. Bernie is also more than happy to share her… read more

The Tree House is the epitome of the Workaway experience! But what do you say about someone like Ellis? A top bloke, a great human, and, after 5 weeks, a good friend! It really ended up feeling as though we were just staying on a mates farm and helping him out with a few things.

When speaking of Helen and Art, it is really hard to even know where to start, as our experience was nothing short of amazing! Mike only wishes he could have thrown his pen on the table and yelled SUDOKU! They welcomed us into their home and family as though we had been long term friends. Although there were extensive gardens to maintain, Helen… read more

What started out as an intended one month stay, turned into an exciting 3 months or more of learning, growing and sharing. Glen and Sharon became more than hosts, they were friends that opened up their land and lives to us. We learned a lot from them both. From Glens Eye for detail, precision and a wealth of knowledge and stories, to Sharon's… read more

Mike and Kara helped on our farm for 3 months. I am not exaggerating when I say they have been the best Workaway helpers we have ever had. Not only did they do a great job on any task we handed them, they completed it with such a positive attitude. They both went over and above the required amount of work, and often continued working late until… read more
