We are offering travelers a warm, comfortable two-story Celery Top Pine Pole home we built ourself. You will enjoy magical views of the ocean and mountain and will wake to the sounds of the wild birds that flock to our food and water bowls. We are regularly visited by possums, wallaby's and various other wildlife. If you're lucky you may even see a Tasmanian Devil. We aspire to a sustainable way of living and adore our large established organic garden, which we are needing help with maintaining. We ask helpers to provide a minimum of 4.5 hrs of work each day for 5 days with two full days off. If you would like a day off after working a few days we ask you to make up the hours on other days. Some helpers also purchase their own food and only work 2.5 hours a day if this suits you better. We are also very flexible and happy to listen to your requests. Previous gardening experience is essential as well as cooking/helping with evening meals, household duties, and other jobs as required...

If you'd like to experience natural, simple living and see what it is like to start a life relying more on yourself than the consumer driven culture, and hear about the realities of "community living", then we may just be a match. We are a young family with four kids under 10, trying hard to transition into self sufficiency. We live off grid, on a bush block. It is a 15 minutes drive to town. A bus can be caught 2.4km away. Coonabarabran is Australia's astronomy capital. The observatory here allows space and planet enthusiasts to explore their interests. We produce our own goat's milk, eggs and have been enjoying tones of salad greens. Now its time for spring planting. My kids are homeschooled, don't eat or watch junk, not allowed tech devices, run and play with each other, help garden and clean up, my 5 year old chops wood, mills flour, my 8 year sews and weaves - and they love the lifestyle. If we watch a film, we discuss the subliminal messages. I spent summers in Russia on dac...

Cairns is a gorgeous please to visit, and this is an especially good this time of year as the warmth brings lots of friendly visitors to our city.

If you love wildlife, the outdoors, great views and good food, send us an email (only emails from this site will be responded to). This is very much a cultural exchange (for us and for you) as you will be in our family home sharing our lifestyle. NO SMOKERS OR VEGETARIANS PLEASE. We prefer our helpers to stay 2 weeks or more. Work outside is a major part of what we do so expect to be outside on a rural property as part of the experience. Please message us through this platform to allow us to view your profile The property is located 60km South of Brisbane and 20km West of the Gold Coast on the upper North slope of Mt Tamborine, 320m above sea level. We are surrounded by National Parks and abundant wildlife. The property is 6Ha with a sub-tropical climate and has great country views to the North up to 140km on a clear day. We also have a tennis court (I will always give preference to tennis players who love to cook and eat great food), an outdoor cob pizza oven, chooks/ducks, two Rh...

Situated on the edge of the Great Divide, we are surrounded by great views, Kangaroos, Wombats, Echidna and numerous bird species including wedge tail eagles, Rosella's and Kookaburras. Just an hour from Melbourne [less from the airport] we can arrange pick up. Our farm has Highland Cattle, Chooks and a large Vegie garden/orchard. While we have no urgent work requirements and the farm is only our hobby [we are semi retired ] there is always something to do, however we have no paid employment available and cannot add points for visa extension. We have a spare room with double bed or we can accommodate 2 x singles as well. The nearest public transport is 15 minute drive and we can drop people of most days as we go past the station nearly every day. Our current projects are house painting, wood cutting and gardening.

PLEASE READ MY WHOLE HOST PROFILE BEFORE YOU APPLY TO VISIT MY PLACE AND ASK ABOUT ANYTHING YOUR NOT CLEAR ON. Need help with a garden clean up, at the moment. You don't need to have an overwhelming desire to save the world, live off the land, or be more useful than a Swiss army knife, to stay here. A nice honest person is good enough. Your pronouns or political correctness are better off left in your backpack🤣😉 This is a relaxing place, close to nature, away from the backpacker trail on the coast but still got a bit happening, somewhere to recharge your batteries, do a bit of work, have a laugh and meet some real Aussies, maybe get out of your comfort zone a bit😜 My place is a cattle farm with one rough headed(inside and out 🤣,) skinny, old farmer, one dog, some cattle, lots of birds and wildlife, relaxing place, near Kyogle, a quiet country town. It is 1.5 hours drive west from Byron Bay, 2 hours south of Brisbane by train. Very close to the beautiful Border Ranges National...

We live on a 5 acre hobby farm in the beautiful Huon Valley, Southern Tasmania. Our family consists of three young adult children (two live at home), two horses, many chickens, ducks, geese, goats and two gorgeous dogs. We grow organic vegetables and breed heritage chickens in an attempt to be more sustainable. Jobs involve general gardening, helping with the animals and housekeeping. If you would like a Tassie small farm experience message us with some details of the work you have previously done. We have separate accommodation, with a bathroom. All our HelpXers have loved working and living with us and I hope you will too (please remember Tassie is a cold place in winter). There are many areas of natural beauty in Southern Tasmania which are all fairly close to us. For example, the Hartz mountains, Hastings Caves and the Tahune Airwalk. We live close to a sleepy village called Cygnet and Hobart is only a 40min drive away. (Unfortunately we can't approve 2nd year visas)

We are near the Shoalwater Marine Park and Penguin Island 40mins from Perth city centre. Very close to public transport, cafes and library. Ideal for beach walking, diving, swimming, cycling, fishing, sailing and windsurfing (beach is 60 metres away). Accommodation would take form of a fully insulated cute tiny garden room with access to undercover cooking area and bathroom. IT is small so please See photos. On week days we are usually working in Perth so we cant provide meals, but a well-stocked supermarket is 200 metres away. When possible we can take turns for meals if possible. We average 2/3 hours a day painting, plumbing gardening and other repairs and can negotiate best time to do that, for example maybe it’s more convenient to do two longer days during the week.Greg is usually available to help you with your car or take you fishing, boating or sightseeing if you’re willing to free him up from his other commitments. When you email please let us know when you plan to get to Per...

I am looking for two helpers for 7-10 days in the first half of October. Warm greetings from rural Byron Shire. I have hosted helpers regularly to help me to clear and tidy my sloping one hectare garden, which continues growing vigorously, and with other necessary maintenance tasks around my home. I would welcome a couple or two friends to work with me for a week or more from about 7 October. No particular experience is necessary, but any practical skills might be useful, and reasonable fitness is needed. Carpentry skills would be particularly welcome as I am doing some renovations. I’m happy to share my own skills with willing helpers and will be working with you. Three to four hours of work per day in return for plentiful food and drink, and your own comfortable accommodation in my guest bedroom(s). I live in the Byron Bay hinterland, with my dog Rosie, in quiet country with ocean views and sightings of numerous wildlife. I come from England but have settled in Australia for th...

*** We haven't had any helpers for a few years as our house has been busy growing teenagers! We're currently looking for 1-2 fun, motivated people for a short term stay to help with house cleaning and gardening… We have four children that have all grown up and spread their wings so now we’re empty-nesters living on our large goat breeding property in outback New South Wales. We’ve just finished building a new house and I need help to clean it up and move back in - probably just a couple of weeks work, 4-5 hours per day. In exchange we offer you the chance to enjoy our beautiful lifestyle... A wonderful place for bush walking and we have plenty of kangaroos, emus and bird life for you to photograph. The sunrise and sunsets are huge and beautiful.... AND i guarantee you'll see more stars in one night, than you have seen in your whole life!! We can accommodate a single person or a couple. A great way to experience the true outback life - The jobs wont all be fun but the lifestyle d...

Great Mackerel Beach is a magical place in Sydney. A small and peaceful community with lots of wildlife; expect to see wallabies and plenty of local birds. If you have seen the television series 'Home and Away' then you will recognise 'Summer Bay' across the water. A safe beach is only metres from the door. The view from the house is stunning as we look across to Barrenjoey Lighthouse and Palm Beach. We would prefer 2 helpers or a couple that can stay for at least a week mainly doing gardening, but some domestic cleaning and general maintenance. Experience working in bush regeneration, stone work or landscaping would be fabulous. We would like the equivalent of 5 hours/day 5 days/week but are flexible with when you work as long as the times are mutually agreed in advance. Most of the work is outdoors gardening on our steep block by the sea. We would prefer strong helpers with farming or agricultural experience. You can enjoy time off exploring nature. We can offer swimming, fishing, ...

This is very much paradise. With goats, sheep, chickens and dogs there is always a something going on. It is a lifestyle property where chilling out is on the top of the list. We are located half way between Albany and Denmark and 5 minutes from the beach. There is surfing, fishing, hiking and bike riding. With great surf beaches, the Bibbulmun track, the Munda Biddy track and Cape Howe National Park right on our door step. Our place is a work in progress so always something to do. Perfect if you have a camper van. We do have a camper trailer that we can set up if needed. Own transport recommended. During the school term I travel in and out of Albany for work and happy to take you in for adventuring town. Happy for an hour or 2 each day of general gardening in return for a safe place to stay. Happy to discuss how we can help with your Australian adventure. Our home is like getting a big hug from the trees.

We.previously lived in Boreen Point on the Sunshine Coast where we hosted many helpers through helpx with amazing reviews over a period of 17years.. Most never wanted to leave. We have now moved and bought an equally stunning property in Far North Queensland in a small country town (Cardwell) on 3 acres 10 minutes from beach. We are located between Cairns and Townsville and just south of Mission Beach. Terry and I are not as young as we used to be and are struggling with maintaining the property. We need help for 4hours a day, with weeding, mulching, pruning and watering the gardens and general house cleaning. We back onto tropical rainforest and creek. Help around the inside of property would also be helpful. You will have your own bedroom and own bathroom (1 queen for couples and 2 queens for singles). The fridge will be stocked for you to prepare your own breakfast and lunch and we all sit together for evening meals which I will prepare. There are many stunning waterfalls and walk...

We hope you can join us. Currently looking for keen and energetic people who can join us in making our piece of Paradise even better while you have a memorable lifetime experience that will enrich your life. We love sharing who we are and what we have to inspire others to thrive on the land while working with and amongst nature. We want to show you how to be comfortable in nature; to re-learn how to be a part of nature rather than apart from nature. We have two rooms exclusively for HelpX guests; one room with a double bed, the other with a bunk bed. You have your own bathroom and toilet. We also have our delightful Avan; a compact caravan that has a double bed and a single bed for those who want to live more out amongst nature.

Our small farm (https://little-farm.com.au) sits in Northern Victoria, where we grow fruit and vegetables, plant trees, and learn as we go. Tim, a retired engineer, is always building or fixing something. Beth is a teacher and health practitioner who also teaches at university. She tends a rose garden of over 400 fragrant bushes. Early mornings here smell incredible. The property includes an organic vegetable garden, orchard, berries, herbs, and a music room with a baby grand piano. If you play, bring your instrument. We’re close to the Murray River. Big skies, glowing sunrises and sunsets, and rich birdlife surround us. Magpies are part of daily life here, in sound and in art across the farm. Nights are clear and full of stars. Many people arrive tired and leave feeling genuinely restored.

Hello travellers, and a warm welcome to beautiful Olinda - I am Vita and delighted to host you. **Currently seeking Helper/s who can work in the garden or use a chainsaw to cut fire wood. Or a carpenter who can help repair weather damaged external timber windows. Or someone with mechanical experience to service chainsaw and lawn mowers.

I appreciate self-starters and Helpers with initiative, who do not always need to be told what to do and are capable of putting in a full days work.

Hi!! Thanks for reading :) Come join us on beautiful French Island, which is 70% national park, uniquely natural and very Australian. We are a married couple with a positive outlook and due to a recent fire, which took our beautiful dog, building and cabins, we need help with planning, gardening and generally starting over. We prefer couples with their own camper van, but are happy to discuss alternatives. FRENCH ISLAND is only a fifteen minute passenger-ferry ride, or a twenty minute vehicle-barge trip with your camper van, after an hour drive from Melbourne, Victoria. We proudly have one of the largest populations of healthy Koalas in the world, great natural landscapes, over 250 bird species and only 100 resident humans! Fully off-grid with unsealed roads, French Island is like stepping back in time in a relatively unspoilt natural environment, but we are equipped with solar, wind, diesel generator and battery power. Koalas regularly hang-out in our nearby trees, enjoying the ba...

Would like to learn and look after a vineyard and winery this season, no experience is necessary. Established in 1998 and hosting HELPXers for over 15 years, it is the only certified organic winery in the Perth region. It is situated in the Swan Valley, 7km from Elenbrook and 15km from the Perth airport. The vineyard has 3,000 vines, a large house we live in, a machinery shed, and a winery/distillery on the property. Winemaking occurs during the summer months from January to March. A large, spacious room with a double bed, attached to the house, has a private entrance. Applications for mature couples as applicants are now open. Opportunities for vineyard and maintenance work are available. Couples with Visitor Visas are also welcome. I want (NON-smoking and non-vaping) volunteers who wish to experience domestic, distillery, vineyard, and winemaking work.

Situated at Garden Island Creek, south east of Cygnet in the Huon and close to the sea on a small rural block where i am sometimes in need of general and specific assistance. I am in process of converting a field into a food garden while keeping some land as pasture and most as natural habitat.

The work schedule will be dependent on weather, work priorities, and personal circumstances but is flexible and negotiable. In return I shall provide food and accommodation and will show you some of the local geography. The sea is nearby for swimming, kayaking, and fishing and also there are quiet roads and forestry tracks for walking, jogging, and cycling. I have cycles, kayaks, fishing rods that you may use.

This is a home stay situated on a sugarcane farm 18km north of Proserpine. Not far from Airle Beach and Whitsundays. There are a variety of chores, I work in the sugar mill but also have a lot of work around my house and sheds. We’re renting a granny flat, and some times there is some cleaning work to be done. I have a young dog and chooks to take care of. If you are looking for some peace and quiet to get away, it will be a good choice. I would also be happy to show you around the area if time and weather permits, take you fishing, maybe catch some crabs and explain some of the wildlife in the area. There are lots of beautiful places to see here. We have hosted exchange students in the past and it has been very fulfilling, sharing different cultures. More photos on instagram at aqhinschen We enjoy the company and conversation and also sharing the cooking, I love sharing the kitchen while cooking.

If you'd like to experience natural, simple living and see what it is like to start a life relying more on yourself than the consumer driven culture, and hear about the realities of "community living", then we may just be a match. We are a young family with four kids under 10, trying hard to transition into self sufficiency. We live off grid, on a bush block. It is a 15 minutes drive to town. A bus can be caught 2.4km away. Coonabarabran is Australia's astronomy capital. The observatory here allows space and planet enthusiasts to explore their interests. We produce our own goat's milk, eggs and have been enjoying tones of salad greens. Now its time for spring planting. My kids are homeschooled, don't eat or watch junk, not allowed tech devices, run and play with each other, help garden and clean up, my 5 year old chops wood, mills flour, my 8 year sews and weaves - and they love the lifestyle. If we watch a film, we discuss the subliminal messages. I spent summers in Russia on dac...

Situated on the edge of the Great Divide, we are surrounded by great views, Kangaroos, Wombats, Echidna and numerous bird species including wedge tail eagles, Rosella's and Kookaburras. Just an hour from Melbourne [less from the airport] we can arrange pick up. Our farm has Highland Cattle, Chooks and a large Vegie garden/orchard. While we have no urgent work requirements and the farm is only our hobby [we are semi retired ] there is always something to do, however we have no paid employment available and cannot add points for visa extension. We have a spare room with double bed or we can accommodate 2 x singles as well. The nearest public transport is 15 minute drive and we can drop people of most days as we go past the station nearly every day. Our current projects are house painting, wood cutting and gardening.

PLEASE READ MY WHOLE HOST PROFILE BEFORE YOU APPLY TO VISIT MY PLACE AND ASK ABOUT ANYTHING YOUR NOT CLEAR ON. Need help with a garden clean up, at the moment. You don't need to have an overwhelming desire to save the world, live off the land, or be more useful than a Swiss army knife, to stay here. A nice honest person is good enough. Your pronouns or political correctness are better off left in your backpack🤣😉 This is a relaxing place, close to nature, away from the backpacker trail on the coast but still got a bit happening, somewhere to recharge your batteries, do a bit of work, have a laugh and meet some real Aussies, maybe get out of your comfort zone a bit😜 My place is a cattle farm with one rough headed(inside and out 🤣,) skinny, old farmer, one dog, some cattle, lots of birds and wildlife, relaxing place, near Kyogle, a quiet country town. It is 1.5 hours drive west from Byron Bay, 2 hours south of Brisbane by train. Very close to the beautiful Border Ranges National...

We live on a 5 acre hobby farm in the beautiful Huon Valley, Southern Tasmania. Our family consists of three young adult children (two live at home), two horses, many chickens, ducks, geese, goats and two gorgeous dogs. We grow organic vegetables and breed heritage chickens in an attempt to be more sustainable. Jobs involve general gardening, helping with the animals and housekeeping. If you would like a Tassie small farm experience message us with some details of the work you have previously done. We have separate accommodation, with a bathroom. All our HelpXers have loved working and living with us and I hope you will too (please remember Tassie is a cold place in winter). There are many areas of natural beauty in Southern Tasmania which are all fairly close to us. For example, the Hartz mountains, Hastings Caves and the Tahune Airwalk. We live close to a sleepy village called Cygnet and Hobart is only a 40min drive away. (Unfortunately we can't approve 2nd year visas)

We are near the Shoalwater Marine Park and Penguin Island 40mins from Perth city centre. Very close to public transport, cafes and library. Ideal for beach walking, diving, swimming, cycling, fishing, sailing and windsurfing (beach is 60 metres away). Accommodation would take form of a fully insulated cute tiny garden room with access to undercover cooking area and bathroom. IT is small so please See photos. On week days we are usually working in Perth so we cant provide meals, but a well-stocked supermarket is 200 metres away. When possible we can take turns for meals if possible. We average 2/3 hours a day painting, plumbing gardening and other repairs and can negotiate best time to do that, for example maybe it’s more convenient to do two longer days during the week.Greg is usually available to help you with your car or take you fishing, boating or sightseeing if you’re willing to free him up from his other commitments. When you email please let us know when you plan to get to Per...

I am looking for two helpers for 7-10 days in the first half of October. Warm greetings from rural Byron Shire. I have hosted helpers regularly to help me to clear and tidy my sloping one hectare garden, which continues growing vigorously, and with other necessary maintenance tasks around my home. I would welcome a couple or two friends to work with me for a week or more from about 7 October. No particular experience is necessary, but any practical skills might be useful, and reasonable fitness is needed. Carpentry skills would be particularly welcome as I am doing some renovations. I’m happy to share my own skills with willing helpers and will be working with you. Three to four hours of work per day in return for plentiful food and drink, and your own comfortable accommodation in my guest bedroom(s). I live in the Byron Bay hinterland, with my dog Rosie, in quiet country with ocean views and sightings of numerous wildlife. I come from England but have settled in Australia for th...

*** We haven't had any helpers for a few years as our house has been busy growing teenagers! We're currently looking for 1-2 fun, motivated people for a short term stay to help with house cleaning and gardening… We have four children that have all grown up and spread their wings so now we’re empty-nesters living on our large goat breeding property in outback New South Wales. We’ve just finished building a new house and I need help to clean it up and move back in - probably just a couple of weeks work, 4-5 hours per day. In exchange we offer you the chance to enjoy our beautiful lifestyle... A wonderful place for bush walking and we have plenty of kangaroos, emus and bird life for you to photograph. The sunrise and sunsets are huge and beautiful.... AND i guarantee you'll see more stars in one night, than you have seen in your whole life!! We can accommodate a single person or a couple.

Great Mackerel Beach is a magical place in Sydney. A small and peaceful community with lots of wildlife; expect to see wallabies and plenty of local birds. If you have seen the television series 'Home and Away' then you will recognise 'Summer Bay' across the water. A safe beach is only metres from the door. The view from the house is stunning as we look across to Barrenjoey Lighthouse and Palm Beach. We would prefer 2 helpers or a couple that can stay for at least a week mainly doing gardening, but some domestic cleaning and general maintenance. Experience working in bush regeneration, stone work or landscaping would be fabulous. We would like the equivalent of 5 hours/day 5 days/week but are flexible with when you work as long as the times are mutually agreed in advance. Most of the work is outdoors gardening on our steep block by the sea. We would prefer strong helpers with farming or agricultural experience. You can enjoy time off exploring nature. We can offer swimming, fishing, ...

This is very much paradise. With goats, sheep, chickens and dogs there is always a something going on. It is a lifestyle property where chilling out is on the top of the list. We are located half way between Albany and Denmark and 5 minutes from the beach. There is surfing, fishing, hiking and bike riding. With great surf beaches, the Bibbulmun track, the Munda Biddy track and Cape Howe National Park right on our door step. Our place is a work in progress so always something to do. Perfect if you have a camper van. We do have a camper trailer that we can set up if needed. Own transport recommended. During the school term I travel in and out of Albany for work and happy to take you in for adventuring town. Happy for an hour or 2 each day of general gardening in return for a safe place to stay. Happy to discuss how we can help with your Australian adventure. Our home is like getting a big hug from the trees.

We.previously lived in Boreen Point on the Sunshine Coast where we hosted many helpers through helpx with amazing reviews over a period of 17years.. Most never wanted to leave. We have now moved and bought an equally stunning property in Far North Queensland in a small country town (Cardwell) on 3 acres 10 minutes from beach. We are located between Cairns and Townsville and just south of Mission Beach. Terry and I are not as young as we used to be and are struggling with maintaining the property. We need help for 4hours a day, with weeding, mulching, pruning and watering the gardens and general house cleaning. We back onto tropical rainforest and creek. Help around the inside of property would also be helpful. You will have your own bedroom and own bathroom (1 queen for couples and 2 queens for singles). The fridge will be stocked for you to prepare your own breakfast and lunch and we all sit together for evening meals which I will prepare. There are many stunning waterfalls and walk...

Our small farm (https://little-farm.com.au) sits in Northern Victoria, where we grow fruit and vegetables, plant trees, and learn as we go. Tim, a retired engineer, is always building or fixing something. Beth is a teacher and health practitioner who also teaches at university. She tends a rose garden of over 400 fragrant bushes. Early mornings here smell incredible. The property includes an organic vegetable garden, orchard, berries, herbs, and a music room with a baby grand piano. If you play, bring your instrument. We’re close to the Murray River. Big skies, glowing sunrises and sunsets, and rich birdlife surround us. Magpies are part of daily life here, in sound and in art across the farm.

We have an ongoing construction of paths through our forest for environmental walks if you want to participate in their construction as well as maintaining our present mazes , one operational and one in development stage. If you have a passion for making structures out of timber (Australian hardwoods) we are in a small building phase, it’s easy to learn a lot from a passionate timber person . Winner of the 2022 New South Wales and Australian National landscape architecture award for the best small projects for our maze. We are in the phase of expanding our maze areas into a new rush maze This is going to be a place of gardens and dreams , if you are interested in making a large outdoor...

Hello travellers, and a warm welcome to beautiful Olinda - I am Vita and delighted to host you. **Currently seeking Helper/s who can work in the garden or use a chainsaw to cut fire wood. Or a carpenter who can help repair weather damaged external timber windows. Or someone with mechanical experience to service chainsaw and lawn mowers. Or a Helper with sewing skills and can use a sewing machine. Or a helper who can restore and refinish furniture. I appreciate self-starters and Helpers with initiative, who do not always need to be told what to do and are capable of putting in a full days work. Weeding and garden work is always a go-to if you are waiting instructions. Helpers will sometimes be left to work by themselves as I don’t always have time to supervise them. Therefore, Helpers who can help with l...

Hi!! Thanks for reading :) Come join us on beautiful French Island, which is 70% national park, uniquely natural and very Australian. We are a married couple with a positive outlook and due to a recent fire, which took our beautiful dog, building and cabins, we need help with planning, gardening and generally starting over. We prefer couples with their own camper van, but are happy to discuss alternatives. FRENCH ISLAND is only a fifteen minute passenger-ferry ride, or a twenty minute vehicle-barge trip with your camper van, after an hour drive from Melbourne, Victoria. We proudly have one of the largest populations of healthy Koalas in the world, great natural landscapes, over 250 bird species and only 100 resident humans! Fully off-grid with unsealed roads, French Island is like stepping back in time in a relatively unspoilt natural environment, but we are equipped with solar, wind, diesel generator and battery power. Koalas regularly hang-out in our nearby trees, enjoying the ba...

I live in a beautiful Victorian house, close the most famous walks in the Blue Mountains. I have a big garden lots of trees and birds. You will have a big and very pretty room (see photos) Easily accessible from Sydney Airport (less than two hours train) then a quick walk from the station. I can come and pick you up if you have bags. This is my first experience with HelpX .I am French Australian and I live alone . I sometimes dog sit in my house . There is plenty of room in the house and I am in Sydney 3 times a week where I work as a teacher in an international college. You will have the house to yourselves during this time . I'm looking for handy people with a background in renovation. I'm happy to show you around .

Would like to learn and look after a vineyard and winery this season, no experience is necessary. Established in 1998 and hosting HELPXers for over 15 years, it is the only certified organic winery in the Perth region. It is situated in the Swan Valley, 7km from Elenbrook and 15km from the Perth airport. The vineyard has 3,000 vines, a large house we live in, a machinery shed, and a winery/distillery on the property. Winemaking occurs during the summer months from January to March. A large, spacious room with a double bed, attached to the house, has a private entrance. Applications for mature couples as applicants are now open. Opportunities for vineyard and maintenance work are available. Couples with Visitor Visas are also welcome. I want (NON-smoking and non-vaping) volunteers who wish to experience domestic, distillery, vineyard, and winemaking work. During the season, there are generally outdoor activities, such as winery and vine work, plus gardening if it is not raining o...

Situated at Garden Island Creek, south east of Cygnet in the Huon and close to the sea on a small rural block where i am sometimes in need of general and specific assistance. I am in process of converting a field into a food garden while keeping some land as pasture and most as natural habitat. Any help would be welcome and could include gardening work to field drainage, fencing, feeding poultry, painting, collecting firewood, house work and maintenance of bicycles, car, and house. The work schedule will be dependent on weather, work priorities, and personal circumstances but is flexible and negotiable. In return I shall provide food and accommodation and will show you some of the local geography. The sea is nearby for swimming, kayaking, and fishing and also there are quiet roads and forestry tracks for walking, jogging, and cycling. I have cycles, kayaks, fishing rods that you may use. The nearest public facilties are 14 km away at Cygnet and If you don't have transport i ...

I am happy to pick someone from the Albury railway station. Albury is a pretty town on the Hume Highway. It is inland on the Murray River and there are a lot of local attractions, vineyards, historical small towns, snow fields and many more, only a few hours drive. I am located in town, with the railway station and the airport not too far, about 15minutes drive. I am fully vaccinated and require the same of a helper. I only take Non-smokers (meaning you do not smoke at all, outside as well). Currently I am asking for 2.5hrs a day for board only.You can cook for yourselves, buy supplies locally and after cooking clean your area. I would like help with the garden and other general duties around the house, such as cleaning. If you are travelling this way, either going to Melbourne or locally and can hel...

This is a home stay situated on a sugarcane farm 18km north of Proserpine. Not far from Airle Beach and Whitsundays. There are a variety of chores, I work in the sugar mill but also have a lot of work around my house and sheds. We’re renting a granny flat, and some times there is some cleaning work to be done. I have a young dog and chooks to take care of. If you are looking for some peace and quiet to get away, it will be a good choice. I would also be happy to show you around the area if time and weather permits, take you fishing, maybe catch some crabs and explain some of the wildlife in the area. There are lots of beautiful places to see here. We have hosted exchange students in the past and it has been very fulfilling, sharing different cultures. More photos on instagram at aqhinschen We enjoy the company and conversation and also sharing the cooking, I love sharing the kitchen while cooking. We have had some great times and have some wonderful memories of people we have had...
