  • Description

    Description

    We are a household of 2 adults in our 50's. And Billie a 1 year old puppy who needs lots of walks and play! Our 20 year old son is sailing to Turkey and our 24 year old lives in Arnhem land but visits sometimes. We have other friends who come and stay from time to time but sometimes want some company and help with gardening and fixing things. We have lived in Darwin for 27 years and are involved in social justice and community work. We are fish eating vegetarians and try to live as sustainably as we can. We have lots of projects making things from old stuff. We love music, food and people!

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    In an outside 'studio' - a large room which is very open but private in the garden. There is a composting toilet, an outside shower and a sink, and it is close to the pool.

    We also have a small caravan as an option. Our house is small but has everything we need and also has a spare room.

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    Darwin is an interesting town with lots of beautiful places nearby. We live in the northern suburbs near Rapid Creek. We are all pretty busy ( music, sport, yoga, circus, acting, social justice work - oh, and school and work!) but try to cook and eat meals together. We have often had people staying with us, we have all travelled and would love to welcome other like minded people into our house.
