Join my home, a quiet retreat in a beautiful part of Aldinga Beach, South Australia

  Description

  I have a large garden in Aldinga Beach South Australia.
  A lovely region which is close to the beach as well as the McLaren Vale winery area.
  I live on my own and find the garden at times o overwhelming so would be willing to offer someone a room with their own bathroom and sitting area in my home for whatever time frame suits us both. Any handy person tasks to be done as well as work in the garden will be appreciated.
  
  My house is walking distance to the beach, I have 2 lovely cat companions but have room to accommodate either singles or couples to share my house and garden with.

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  I live in a part of South Australia that is a desirable holiday destination so there are many opportunities for social and cultural activities. Stunning coast line, great cafes and restaurants, live music and the Mclaren Vale wine region 15 mins away. I am a counsellor and retreat facilitator and very keen gardener. Of course I love to learn about different cultures also

  Accommodation

  I have a spare room for guests in the other end of the house so there is privacy and your own bathroom/ toilet. There is also your own entrance if needed.
  My need for your help would not be huge so I would be willing to cook some meals together but would also expect you to add the things you specifically want/ need to eat. You can access all pantry and fridge condiments etc

  What else ...

  I live an my own, am socially very active and whilst I am happy to open my house to a guest I would not want to feel beholden to 'entertaining' one.
  I am happy to do some tour guiding for a day or so but after that I would expect them to be capable of independence and initiative, I'm certainly not unfriendly, I just need my own space when at home sometimes but I also appreciate company and assistance with garden and household maintenance .I am walking distance to a beach and a community centre and garden. There are lovely walking trails close by also...There really are a lot of activities. I do work from home in my counselling room but not all days and not for many hours. I have a counselling room which could be used as your private living/working area if I'm not using it.
