Natural beauty: The Blue Mountains are renowned for their natural beauty, and volunteering at your home would allow travellers to experience the stunning landscapes up close.

Outdoor activity: Working in the garden can offer travellers a chance to engage in physical activity, get some fresh air and sunshine, and connect with nature.

Creative outlet: Volunteering to create art can provide travellers with a creative outlet, allowing them to express themselves and develop their artistic skills in a supportive and inspiring environment.

Cultural exchange: Volunteering at my home would offer travellers the opportunity to interact with locals and gain insights into the local culture and way of life.

I'm an English woman who came to Australia in 2019 after working in Taiwan for 4 years. I work as an academic is Sydney, often working from home but also go to the city regularly. I have a beautiful Greyhound (Foohey) who is a rescue dog. I have a house that comprises two adjoined properties. When my family are not staying, I Airbnb nextdoor to help pay for my mortgage. Volunteers are an important part of the community and should be treated with respect and sensitivity. At my home in the Blue Mountains, volunteers can expect to be treated with professionalism, kindness, and appreciation. I will provide you with clear instructions, training, and guidance, and ensure that you have the necessary resources and support to complete your work. As a volunteer you will also be given the space to express your opinions and ideas, and your feedback will be valued and taken into consideration. I will make every effort to create a welcoming and inclusive environment, where you feel safe, respected, and appreciated for your contributions.
