Wwoof介紹 (host)


Wwoof book把塔斯島的Wwoof hosts分為南與北, 南邊host大多是圍繞Hobart首都, 北方的host則散布各地點

Wwoof book裡有些描述令我感覺很棒(吸引我的部分字體加粗^^), 如果時間充裕很想去:
(只有列編號, 聯絡方式在Wwoof book, 想感受不一樣的生活方式, 加入Wwoofer吧)

TH044 West Hobart
We live communally in the city and share the garden with our cats and chooks.
Stays & work are negotiated- as a fair exchange between equals.
Activities include helping run the clothes stall at Salamanca Market, where Wwoofers are welcome to sell their creations, helping around the house, cooking fabulous meals, &gardening.
We create our lives around the principles of love, generosity, fun & responsibility.
We are mostly vego, and welcome left-leaning workers, students & artists, Gay/Lesbian/Bi- friendly.

TH092 Sandfly
20 acres of steep to undulating hills & pasture behind Mt Wellington in a sheltered valley, 20 min from Hobart. Can P/U from the city.
I am a retired agricultural scientist and we have regenerated this formerly neglected land with tree planting, vegetable and fruit garden.
Cats dogs & sheep with lots of birds and other wildlife.
Work includes maintenance of garden, weed control, building, fencing & housework.

TH143 Stormlea
I'm a well-travelled ex-Wwoofer now developing 8 acres of land that backs onto the Tasman National Park section of Cape Raoul & Shipstern Bluff, 10kms from Port Arthur & 2 hours drive from Hobart.
Surfing & rock climbing for the extreme!! Hiking, swimming & cycling for anyone, soccer in the winter, plus sea kayaking & diving interests.

There is a sauna for those chilly nights.
Can P/U from Hobart with prior notice.
Accom for 1-3 people in barn loft.
Children OK. Mixed meals. NSI.

TN098 Meander
I grow a few berries & fruit trees which end up feeding the birds.
I am about to put in another orchard so the birds won't starve.
I also have a vegie garden when the possums let me.
I love meeting people from other cultures and have met some wonderful people from all corners of the planet.
Many of my Wwoofers have come back for 2nd & 3rd visits!
Hhmmm. Must be the ice cream & chocolate biscuits.
I've even visited my Wwoofers in Korea & Japan.
I am happy to show you around some of the beautiful places here: hikes, caves, waterfalls, cliff tops & lakes (if I can afford the petrol!!).
There is a river close by to swim in.
When there is work to be done.
I really appreciate the help and am happy to teach people skills.
I am a patient person and know what it is like to speak a foreign language. I can help with English.
Work here includes weeding, firewood collecting, orchard work, building, ice cream eating competitions, anything!
If you can cook, I will worship you forever.
I love music-classical, soul, dance, funk, house, jazz.
I have a piano & play the pipe organ.
I am also a botanist and can tell you about the plants & trees.
For me, Wwoofing is not about work but about meeting people, sharing, laughter & fun!
Special Request: To try & save the ancient forests from logging, we are having a Forest Festival on February 17-18th 2007. Forest walks, music, theatre & fun!
I and other wwoof hosts here need lots of Wwoofers to help set the festival site up.
Yes, you will get into the festival Free!
Please come and be part of saving Tassie's most precious asset!
