Description
Hello, my name is Leny (61yo f). I live in a big beautiful 1920 arts and crafts house in Launceston with my adult son Akira, my dog Amira and cat Ghibli. I have just sold a house and now I have moved all my stuff from that house to this house I need help sorting and organising it. It’s a big, daunting job that I have been putting off. I need support deciding what to sell, give away, throw out etc. We also need help with cleaning and gardening. We’re pretty casual about hours etc and if you like cooking we’d love you to cook for us sometimes. We can offer you a big, beautiful room with free wifi.

The old bridge and many buildings were built by convicts. There are a few buses a day that will get you to/from Hobart or Launceston.
