The experience

Our family of 3 are renovating our new home and preparing the site to move our existing tiny house on site.
This project will suit someone with building, carpentry or other trade skills, or an interest in learning. Pavel is very handy and can teach you skills you may be interested in learning.
Located close to Fremantle WA you'll love the beaches and lifestyle here. It is an easy ride to South Beach and has good public transport access.

Program Details

Easy bike ride to beautiful beaches, 15 minute bike ride to Fremantle and public transport available nearby.
We have private rooms in a converted caravan and one in our tiny house.
Would also suit people with their own camper/tent. There are visitor facilities including shower, cooking, laundry etc. Please note in the winter months we provide plenty of blankets but it can still be cold in the accommodation and shared areas.
You will need to provide your own food, though we may organise shared meals at times.
We have fast wifi if you need it


Activities & Shift

We will mostly need help with renovating our new house and preparing the site to move our existing tiny house to.
In the house we will be removing walls, repairing floorboards, painting and installing a new kitchen. There will also be plenty of digging and paving/concreting.
We generally work 830-1230 Monday -Friday, however are open to adjusting these hours if you have to take a course etc.
Building and other trades skills would be great but not essential - Pavel has a lot of building, woodwork and design skills so this a great opportunity for anyone interested in learning new skills and ready to get in to some strong work.


Rules

No smoking on the property.
This is a worksite and accommodation, not a party place. Fremantle has plenty of night life opportunities a short bus ride away.
