Big hello helpX helpers Come and hang out with us and have a yarn about some of the amazing places we lived when we were working in regional and remote areas of the north. These days Northern NSW is home. We live next to a nature reserve and have ample wildlife. Over 40 species of birds have been recorded by the Tweed bird observers group. We are off grid and generate our own electricity and collect our own water. Because of this we can could build on our property where we have spectacular views from the large veranda that extend all the way to the QLD border ranges. We offer our visitors accomodation in this beautiful space in return for help on our property. We have a veggie garden and make our own bread. I keep bees, both European honey bees and Australian stingless bees. We love our local cycle rides, kayaking, music, and sharing our beautiful region with visitors. We can offer great food and can teach bread making and bee keeping. The help we need depends on time of year and w...

Currently we are looking for strong guys/ girls skilled in carpentry, plumbing, landscape gardening ,gardening and IT, and if not then just enthusiasm and a love for lifeand laughter. OH and someone who loves to share the cooking is always appreciated.. even though i love to cook healthy foods from all over the world, it's great to learn new styles, and also have a break from the kitchen from time to time. We are here to have fun and leave this earth a little more beautiful than when we found it and celebrate it with kindred spirits, with a lust for life. We live on a spectacular property on the slopes of Gulaga-( a Mt held sacred by both the indigenous and local population) with a view out to a spectacular coast, where we swim, and play, and run with our four legged mate.

Steve and I offer a high quality experience (as you can see from our reviews) and so we expect our Helpers to pitch in and help. The more you put into your time here at Larnook the more you will get out of it. I think the absolute best time to help here with us is between July and October. The days are usually sunny, temperature in high teens or low 20s, and nice and cool at night, when you are snuggled up in yr bed. We have lots of small work jobs at present including lots of weeding and gardening, mowing, pruning and cutting back and some other work. Our property is situated at the foothills of the Billen Cliffs at beautiful Larnook, 30kms north west of Lismore and 20 mins away from Kyogle and Nimbin. We (Kev and Steve - we are a gay couple) have all kinds of work including weeding, mulching, watering plants, weed removal, creek revegetation, painting and planting. We usually expect around 4 hours per day of work in exchange for all meals, your own room, access to internet (fo...

Do you love nature? what about off grid living? How about great food and great company? How about learning some new skills? We need your help with our dream. We have built an earthship (with lots of help already) and want to share in this type of building design. We are located in a gorgeous mountain/ bush setting, totally off grid. We make electricity from solar, and our water comes from a mountain spring. The taskswe do are different everyday as we hope to teach many things to our fellow travellers. Some jobs include; cob making, bottle brick making, rendering, gardening, landscaping, working on a hugle wall (a living wall), horse care, harvesting and much more. No experience necessary, just your creative loving hands. Though, if you are skilled in carpentry, construction and earth dwellings then we could use your expertise. Such is the life on a property in the bush. You can sleep in a hut and camping space is also available. In December you may need your own tent as our community c...

Hi Helpxers! My house is by the beach and far away from farm work. This is Surfers Paradise. So I guess it's not much of a cultural exchange in that respect but it could be convenient to you if you are looking to be in central Gold Coast. I’m Lynne, British, in Australia for 20 plus years and have a beautiful, big and very modern house in Isle of Capri, Surfers Paradise, everyone loves it here. The location is amazing for people who want to experience the Gold Coast. I live alone with my small cute white fluffy dog, Roxie. I also often rent out another room on the short term rental market so it's a fun and busy house as you get to meet quite a few people. Private swimming pool, fabulous fast wifi and movie theatre room with Netflix. There are shops and cafes within 1 minute walk. Walking: beach 8 mins, central Surfers Paradise 12 minutes. I am looking for 1 or 2 people to come and help around the inside and outside of my house. I prefer for you to let me know the skills you have so ...

I live in a small village in the hinterland of Byron Bay. The household is one adult and two dogs. Walking distance to the local store and cafe the home feels rural and sits on the outskirts of the town. There is a bus stop near by. Byron Bay is approx 20 mts away and Bangalow 12 mts away. I love having guests and enjoy the interaction of helpx. Gardening, cooking and cleaning are the main jobs I would like help with and caring for the dogs. I look forward to meeting you. Linda:)

Our slice of paradise is home to a stunning array of native vegetation and a bustling community of native wildlife, making it the perfect retreat for nature lovers and eco-warriors alike.

As a thank you, we're offering cozy private studio accommodation equipped with TV and internet.

We ask for 4 hours of help a day, (we are flexible as to when you achieve those hours) leaving you plenty of time to explore or just kick back and relax. Whether you're a master chef or someone who enjoys being cooked for, we've got the food covered in exchange for your awesome help (and maybe a hand with the dishes 😉). 🚗 Getting Here 🌳...

We have a vacancy from Wednesday 14 Aug 2024 for one person with technical skills sufficient to work on your own part of the time. You will be especially welcome if you have good DIY skills (i.e. good with hand tools and "fixing stuff") and especially if you love working with wood. You need to be an early riser in the mornings. We normally start work by 8 a.m. but it is important to be flexible. Neighbours often offer my HelpXers paid work in the afternoons once a week, sometimes more.

I live between a yacht on Sydney Harbour and a house in a tall eucalyptus forest on the mid north coast of NSW, and need some assistance in working on the house and on another yacht. I'm a carpenter who worked with National Parks and Wildlife for 25 years before retiring, and live with a small dog Billy. I've had many helpers come stay over the last few years and have been lucky to have so many interesting travellers stay. The yacht, is currently on the hard at Whoota where we are renovating her while helping with work on Joyelle. I often take helpers out sailing to see the magnificent Sydney Harbour Bridge and Opera House this is not possiable while Joyelle is being worked on. Yet, I hope to invite helpers out when she is back in the water. The house is located in Whoota, near Forster. It is surrounded by forest and located a 10 minute drive from pristine beaches, lakes, and bushwalks. There a lots of dolphins to see and beautiful areas to explore.

Plant Based Diet only property. I am approx 30 mins drive South of Cairns. Do you like to prepare healthy plant based meals for groups of people? I need a health conscious person to run the kitchen and make delicious,nutritious meals, whilst the rest of us are out in the garden or shed. I am at a camp, not a regular house, my guests often sleep in my retired hilux camper with double bed. Some guests ask to stay in tents, Many have stayed in their campers, rooftop tents and swags too. My favourite guests get introduced to my kitchen, after seeing all the appliances and supplies, adjust the camp kitchen to their liking and take over. This is when I can get much more design work done and planning around the property. Too many times, I get over hungry with no food ready, so I often eat quick naughty fast foods. So yeah, if you are a plant based chef wannabe, I would like to hear from you. You would be great help in my efforts to create an Organic Off Grid, Self Sufficient Green Have...

We live on a 5th generation sheep and cattle property. My partner Ross is a farmer, while I’m a psychologist in a town nearby. We have 2 small children, Maddy is 3 and Berny is 19 months. We also visit my 3 step sons in Coffs Harbour every fortnight, where we have a small beach house and a spare room for guests too! Our place is reasonably isolated, with no public transport. We love the outdoors though so are more than happy to show you some swimming spots, short hikes and any other local activities that are kid friendly! We would love help around the house with meals and basic cleaning, gardening, speaking French with our children, maintenance or small farm jobs (we cannot offer enough work to sign off your 88 days). Our visitors often stay with us while they wait for their TFN, plan their trip and organise their next adventure with the comfort of our family home, meals and our beautiful farm.

We have lots of small work jobs at present including lots of weeding and gardening, mowing, pruning and cutting back and some other work. Our property is situated at the foothills of the Billen Cliffs at beautiful Larnook, 30kms north west of Lismore and 20 mins away from Kyogle and Nimbin.

Do you love nature? what about off grid living? How about great food and great company? How about learning some new skills? We need your help with our dream. We have built an earthship (with lots of help already) and want to share in this type of building design. We are located in a gorgeous mountain/ bush setting, totally off grid. We make electricity from solar, and our water comes from a mountain spring. The taskswe do are different everyday as we hope to teach many things to our fellow travellers. Some jobs include; cob making, bottle brick making, rendering, gardening, landscaping, working on a hugle wall (a living wall), horse care, harvesting and much more. No experience necessary, just your creative loving hands. Though, if you are skilled in carpentry, construction and earth dwellings then we could use your expertise. Such is the life on a property in the bush. You can sleep in a hut and camping space is also available. In December you may need your own tent as our community c...

Hi Helpxers! My house is by the beach and far away from farm work. This is Surfers Paradise. So I guess it's not much of a cultural exchange in that respect but it could be convenient to you if you are looking to be in central Gold Coast. I’m Lynne, British, in Australia for 20 plus years and have a beautiful, big and very modern house in Isle of Capri, Surfers Paradise, everyone loves it here. The location is amazing for people who want to experience the Gold Coast. I live alone with my small cute white fluffy dog, Roxie. I also often rent out another room on the short term rental market so it's a fun and busy house as you get to meet quite a few people. Private swimming pool, fabulous fast wifi and movie theatre room with Netflix. There are shops and cafes within 1 minute walk. Walking: beach 8 mins, central Surfers Paradise 12 minutes. I am looking for 1 or 2 people to come and help around the inside and outside of my house. I prefer for you to let me know the skills you have so ...

Plant Based Diet only property. I am approx 30 mins drive South of Cairns. Do you like to prepare healthy plant based meals for groups of people? I need a health conscious person to run the kitchen and make delicious,nutritious meals, whilst the rest of us are out in the garden or shed. I am at a camp, not a regular house, my guests often sleep in my retired hilux camper with double bed. Some guests ask to stay in tents, Many have stayed in their campers, rooftop tents and swags too. My favourite guests get introduced to my kitchen, after seeing all the appliances and supplies, adjust the camp kitchen to their liking and take over. This is when I can get much more design work done and planning around the property. Too many times, I get over hungry with no food ready, so I often eat quick naughty fast foods.

There is a fast and regular ferry to the mainland that takes 20 minutes.There are also several other islands nearby that can be explored including North Stradbroke Island that has wonderful beaches and walks and lots of wildlife including koalas, kangaroos, turtles and dolphin and - from June to October - humpback whales. And we always take our HelpX guests for a sail in our sailboat, Over the next two years we will renovate and paint the home, install new kitchen and two bathrooms. Graham has some woodworking skill but needs help during that time with various tasks and we are willing to give you a comfortable bed, good food and company and access to bathroom and washing machine in exchange for 4 hours help per day, 5 days per week.

We live on a 5th generation sheep and cattle property. My partner Ross is a farmer, while I’m a psychologist in a town nearby. We have 2 small children, Maddy is 3 and Berny is 19 months. We also visit my 3 step sons in Coffs Harbour every fortnight, where we have a small beach house and a spare room for guests too! Our place is reasonably isolated, with no public transport. We love the outdoors though so are more than happy to show you some swimming spots, short hikes and any other local activities that are kid friendly! We would love help around the house with meals and basic cleaning, gardening, speaking French with our children, maintenance or small farm jobs (we cannot offer enough work to sign off your 88 days). Our visitors often stay with us while they wait for their TFN, plan their trip and organise their next adventure with the comfort of our family home, meals and our beautiful farm. If you have experience with childcare that would be great as our children are very energe...

* * * HELPERS NEEDED * * * I reside in a charming and peaceful village nestled within the World Heritage-listed Blue Mountains, surrounded by majestic trees and a stunning variety of birdlife. It has been a true pleasure to host wonderful helpers from numerous countries over the years. Hospitality is a cornerstone of my culture, so ensuring that you have a comfortable and enjoyable stay is of utmost importance to me. You will have your own private bedroom and bathroom, with all meals provided. Special dietary needs can be catered to upon request. In exchange, I would greatly appreciate your help with 4 hours of work per day in the garden, primarily focused on weeding. After 5 days of work, you can enjoy two days off, or if you prefer, you can opt to work 3 hours each day instead. The nearest train station is Springwood, and I am happy to pick you up from there. Springwood is a delightful little town with boutique shops, cafes, restaurants, a theatre, an art gallery, and a well-eq...
