I am interested in hearing from suitable single female helpers that are able to stay around 3-4 weeks and can assist with care and maintenance of my sailing catamaran and home.

Hi My name is Paul. I am 57 years old and live on my own in a 4 bedroom house I built on my own almost 20 years ago. The house is on a half-acre property located in a small village community on the outskirts of Brisbane, close to large areas of forest. For more than 10 years I have been hosting couch surfers and decided to try helpx as it seems many people are interested in helping in exchange for staying longer. My place is not a farm, however I have a forested backyard. The land is steep with a lot of weeds growing. I have been undertaking bush regeneration, knocking back the weeds and planting trees. The bush attracts a variety of wildlife, including wallabies, echidna, bandicoots, scrub turkeys and a lot of different bird species. Help required may include, building paths, planting trees, watering trees and controlling weeds, depending on what guests are capable of and what they prefer to do. I think 3 or 4 hours work a day is enough.for people staying. My place is quiet and r...

i have been on couchsurfing network for years hosting many people.. and i think this HelpX network is a great idea. Actually i kinda prefer it now. I am flexible with my time (especially during the week days) and love to hang out and make new friends.. In the summer I travel around Victoria and Australia a lot, going on road trips with friends and many music festivals -camping in the bush etc.. I am into music (composing/playing); Alternative health / medicine ; Electronics / Engineering / technology ; Anything weird wacky unusual unexplained strange secret, and business combining most of the above, ;) .. The world is full of amazing things and possibilities and Life can never be dull for the seeker with an open mind. I am very passionate about hidden truths and wisdom and always keen to learn and share (if called for) I do not drink or smoke and i prefer vegetarian food but still i m pretty flexible.. During the warmer months me and my crew travel to various outdoor music festiva...

Kathy lives in a lovely, simple, tropical style, ground level, Darwin house. She has a large garden. Kathry is interested in a Helpx couple or single person willing to help with gardening, painting, spring cleaning, other home repairs or maintenance and perhaps also cooking and daily clean up/housework. Being practical and handy is important. Generally vegetarian food is made and served in this home but other diets are also ok. Help plan menus. Take a turn to cook your own tasty cuisine in a small kitchen. Short stays from a few days to a few weeks will be considered. Kathy asks 2 -3 hours work per person per day in exchange for a room with queen sized bed and meals by negotiation. This home is close to bus routes to Darwin city, shops, cafes, public transport, walking tracks, beaches, municipal pool and nearby creek. Please make first contact by email.

PLEASE READ THE WHOLE DESCRIPTION TO AVOID MISUNDERSTANDINGS I need someone of mature age (about 40+) to help with much needed garden work and sometimes any other handyman jobs you might feel able to tackle that come up.. These are my priorities, but also, basic domestic cleaning too. I live on the Redcliffe Peninsula, approximately 46km north of Brisbane city and approximately 80km south from the Sunshine Coast (Maroochydore) so this might be a handy stopping place for solo travelers who may be heading north or south as I would probably have just enough work for 4 DAYS. In exchange for 4 hours morning help a day, I can offer breakfast and lunch, (leaving every afternoon free to explore surrounding areas - you are welcome to bring in takeaway food for your evening meal if you prefer to eat in.) Due to the hot Queensland summers, you may also prefer the option ot splitting those 4 hours into 2 hrs early morning and 2hrs cool evening, whatever suits. You would have your own double priva...
