  Description

  Hi, My name is Shiva. I live with my 12-year-old son, our cat and dog in a semi-rural area of Melbourne. We are a vegetarian household and have lived in this house for 18 years and love the friendly community which has traditionally attracted many artists and eco-friendly individuals and families. We don't have a TV, but reliable internet access is available. We love travelling and meeting people from different cultures. We love to share our home with workaway individuals or couples for up to a week at a time.
