Description
We’re a family of four living south of Perth in a small coastal village. The beach is 500metres away and cafe 200 metres. We share our house with an old cat and a Kelpie and a cockatiel bird, all extremely happy to share their days with people.
We are a relaxed but busy family, working in Education and running a Surf and Yoga business. Our two children, aged 12 & 14 years old are enjoy surfing, Soccer, hanging out with friends, cooking, and being with their animals.
We run surf and yoga retreats in Indonesia a couple of times a year. At this stage the kids aren't confident enough to surf at the locations we go to so they stay at home and are cared for by their grandparents. Help during these times is needed as the children's grandparents are ageing and it's a lot to look after the kids, house and three pets. We would love support during these times.
There are many local attractions including swimming with dolphins, cruises, wake boarding, visiting native animal zoo, surfing, attending one of our yoga classes, working at the local cafe, and simply soaking up the Aussie surf and sun.
