The Experience
I'm preparing my bush property for a rustic eco-tourism project and need help with gardening, natural building (like clay), wood cutting, painting, and general maintenance. Chainsaw skills are a plus! I'm also looking for creative minds to share ideas and bring this vision to life. If you enjoy hands-on work and nature, join me in shaping something special!

This was the first Worldpackers experience for both, Susanna and me, and we definitely won't forget it. I had a great time helping her in St Kilda and at the cabin in the bush, getting the camping spots ready. She is an incredible dynamic woman, warm, welcoming, and full of fascinating stories. She has a cool hippie vibe style that makes staying with her a unique experience. If you're easygoing, not too fussy and open-minded, you will feel right at home : go with the flow and you will have an amazing time ! She made me feel like part of the family and I'm grateful for the connection we built.
