Scenic Avenue

As a host I am hoping to provide a lovely home environment for travellers who have been staying in youth hostels for a while. In return I would really like keen motivated hard working people who will help me to get my garden back in shape and get on top of some home maintenance.

I am 61 and I am a community nurse. I love meeting new people and I love travel. I am a member of a house sitting site and my partner and I love to explore new places. I have 3 adult children, who I am very close to Unfortunately one lives in Munich. I always try to treat others with respect and kindness.

I recommend this volunteering to anyone looking for an Australian experience. I truly enjoyed my time with Jenness and the other volunteers. Jenness is a wonderful person, sweet and kind. She was always making sure we had everything we needed. She cooked a delicious meals and most of all, she showed us a beautiful hiking places, beaches and lovely waterfalls. The house was just peaceful, I really appreciated watching the charming view from the terrace. Plus, I learned a lot about gardening. It was a pleasure to helped her. I will always remember my stay there.

Jenness is the best! I could leave the review there, but that wouldn't be useful for future worldpackers. Jenness warmly welcomed us into her incredible home, and we felt completely at home during our stay. The work in the garden was full on, and warm on a few days for a weak Brit, but was exactly what was described in the advert and very rewarding. Once the work was finished in the morning, we were off exploring the beach, local creeks and hikes with Jenness and John which was lovely. The food was amazing and we never felt hungry, if anything too full sometimes. A real Aussie family feel ❤️

We had an amazing stay with Jenness and it has been a highlight of our trip to Australia. We got to work each day at 7:30 (before it got too hot) and would know what part of the garden we were tackling first. We often had music playing, had great chats and a good laugh whilst working. Mid morning we would stop for a tea break and often a delicious cake which Jenness had baked! We had lots of amazing food during our stay. After midday we often explored the local area which was so beautiful! The gardening work was very rewarding and I would highly recommend the experience.

The loveliest host you could ever hope to have! Jenness and I had a great week together and often went exploring when we weren't working in the house or garden. Jenness is extremely kind and welcoming and made me feel completely at home during my time on the Sunshine Coast. I would recommend volunteering in the garden with her to anyone :)

My girlfriend and I had an absolutely wonderful stay with Jenness over the past few days. She was incredibly warm and welcoming from the moment we arrived. Our stay was filled with many lovely conversations covering all manner of different topics. Jenness was a wealth of knowledge on the area and gave us multiple great recommendations for things to do and see during our stay. The work on the garden itself was very rewarding and quite often interrupted for tea and cake, which was an added bonus. We’d both happily return for another stay in the future.
