  • Description

    Description

    We are located in Lesmurdie, across the road from Mundi Regional park. We live in a large house with a big garden and need help in preparing for 3 generations to live in the house.
    Mostly garden work and renovations at this stage.

    Our household is a grandmother, adult son and wife and 2 children, 2 years and 1 years old.

    The large garden is full of big trees, a creek and beautiful birds. It is a wildlife haven but needs some work for it to accommodate the young family.
    There are great walking tracks in Mundi regional park.

  • Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    I am involved in environmental projects, community music and art.
    We love learning of other cultural experiences and travellers stories.
    I am part of an environmental friends group for Mundi Regional park, across the road from me. We have recently installed in collaboration with Indigenous people interpretation signs. These signs provide information about Nyoongar, the local Indigenous people and their connection to the land. I have been part of this group for over 10 years. Madjtil Morna is an indigenous reconciliation choir I have sung in for 14 years. We sing in English and in Nyoongar. I can introduce workaway visitors to the local culture and language.
