We are a friendly family living on 5 peaceful acres in Highvale, nestled in the D’Aguilar Range near Samford Village, Brisbane. Our home is surrounded by bushland, birdsong and mountain views, with a pool, tennis court, orchard, and a 3.2km walking track up the mountain. We have three older children (20, and 17-year-old twins) at home and four very affectionate dogs. Helpers stay in a private, self‑contained guest wing with bedroom, bathroom, lounge, kitchen, laundry, verandah, air‑conditioning/heating and wifi. Two friends travelling together can each have a bedroom except on the occasional weekend when family visits, when they may need to share a bed. We also have a large library and a shared work studio available for remote work. We’ve travelled widely as a family and enjoy meeting people from different cultures. Helpers are welcome to join our extended family dinners when they happen. We’re looking for a couple or two friends who can contribute around 20 hours each per week to h...

Vegan / Vegetarian Off-sider Wanted – Coffs Harbour → Far North Queensland I’m looking for a vegan or vegetarian off-sider to help organise, pack, and clean a house in Coffs Harbour over the next few weeks. After that, we’ll drive to Cairns together. It will be a fairly direct trip (about 3–4 days) as I’ll be towing a trailer, so there won’t be much sightseeing on the way, but we can still stop at a few nice places to stay along the route. Once we reach Cairns, I’ll unload the trailer and have more time available. After that, there will be opportunities to explore parts of Far North Queensland, including the Tablelands and other great spots that many travellers enjoy seeing. Food and accommodation provided. Mainly looking for someone practical, tidy, and easygoing who’s happy to help get things organised. Send me a message and tell me a bit about yourself.

*limited availability from March-June 1st 2026* We are finishing our building of a rammed earth house using natural building techniques and developing our permaculture garden. The house is off grid in beautiful bushland and our electricity is produced from our solar panels. Our filtered drinking water is collected off the roof and other water is pumped from the river. We are inland, at the north of the Sunshine Coast, just one hour from Gympie and an easy bus ride from Caboolture (near Brisbane). The bus costs $53. To get here by train and bus, take the train from Brisbane to Caboolture, then the bus from Caboolture to Wondai. The bus station is next to the train station. This bus only runs on a Monday, Wednesday and Friday and it leaves at 4.30pm and arrives at Wondai 7.15pm. We will pick you up in Wondai. The bus costs $53 single. You are advised to get to the bus station about an hour before it leaves to allow for late trains etc. http://www.purserscoaches.com.au/wp-content/upload...
