The Experience
I am an artist and widow and I live on the Gloucester river on a rural, non-farming, bush property of 48 hectares (120 acres). I would like help maintaining the property which needs some TLC. In exchange, I would provide accommodation in a caravan next to my home, or in a spare room, and 3 meals a day. I live near world heritage Barrington Tops. Couples are very welcome. Work would be fairly physical.

I had a beautiful time at Tracey's home. She is such a beautiful and understanding person. Tracey shared her daily life with me : life at home, yoga classes, etc. I had to leave earlier than expected and Tracey was so understanding and helped me the much as she could. If you love nature, this is the perfect place for you ! I totally recommend this experience and will go back one day if I can, for sure ! Thank you Tracey for everything.

My stay was amazing! Tracey is one of the kindest and caring people I have ever met. Her property is breathtaking, and I loved exploring! Wildlife was abundant, and she was filled with fun facts about the surroundings! She is very involved in the community, and we went to the town often. I highly recommend staying with her, and I would love to visit again.

Tracy is so kind. She welcomed us brightly from our first meeting. Our English was terrible, but Tracy was patiently waiting for us. And the town was beautiful. The food at the Roadies cafe was really good. My favorite thing was the way from home to town. It was fantastic and memorable. I miss Mirri, Misty, Valkyrie, and the birds. Our work, making dinner and feeding the animals, was fun. The caravan was a cozy and relaxing place. Tracy's house was very spacious and comfortable. The experience with Tracy was so good that I made a firm commitment to come back to Gloucester!

Thanks Seon, it was really lovely meeting you and learning about Korean culture. We managed to communicate quite well I think. Look forward to your return one day.

I spent nearly two weeks at Tracey's and it has been lovely! She showed me her way of living and her property is just so idyllic. I loved the river which is just across from the house and totally fell in love with the surrounding nature and of course her beautiful animals. We went to the City of Gloucester for various occasions and I got to experience a yoga class, met a lot of locals and accompanied her to the local festivities on Australian Day. Apart from that Tracey made me feel welcome instantly and I learned a lot over my stay. Dinner, music time and playing games where always fun!
