    Description

    We live on a beautiful farm overlooking Wilson’s Promontory . Only 2.5 kms from town and close to fantastic beaches
    There are 4 of us. Daniel, Hilary and our 8 year old son Asriel and an old Cockatiel (Fran)
    We also have 6 young beef steers.
    We are looking for a native Spanish speaker who loves kids as Asriel speaks Spanish and needs practice before he goes to school in Buenos Aires mid next year. So apart from hanging out with a fantastic, gifted kid, we need help in our garden

    We are all well traveled people. Hilary and Daniel have lived in Europe and are going to live in Argentina from July 2025.
