Description
We live in PARADISE. Think crystal clear water, dolphins, palm trees and lots of sunshine. We have moved across the globe a lot, but now settled down in Mullumbimby. Our cute little country town is located in the Byron Shire 15min from beautiful beaches in Brunswick Heads and Byron Bay and close to the most amazing waterfalls up Koonyum range.
Our little gypsy family of 5 loves to visit the beach for a surf, swim or fish. Our little ones are 6,4 and 2 years old and love to play, paint, bike and make a LOT of mess.
Nathan runs the local Wood Factory, selling wood and manufacturing wooden furniture. Véroniquje is
We have an 11 meter caravan with double bed for you live in and a bike to use to ride to town.

We have lived in it ourselves with 2 young kids and it's super comfortable and clean.
What else ...
Moving around the Byron Shire is easiest with your own vehicle. If you don't have one, you can hire one privately from Nathan's brother.
We have a bicycle for you to go to town, from there you can take the bus to Byron Bay or Brunswick Heads.
Hitch-hiking is invented in this region, so definitely give that a go whilst you are here.
