Description
We are a family of five. Ages of kids range from 9-16. We live on a spacious block of land about 7 minute drive from Mullumbimby, 15 minutes from Brunswick Heads, and 30 to Byron Bay. My husband, Pele, teaches filmmaking and photography in the local Steiner school and I work around the Shire as a nurse, so there are a lot of opportunities to get around even if you don’t have a car. We love sports, music, films, growing vegetables and fruits, and meeting new friends.

We believe in ECO conscious living and are happy to discuss current affairs and political agendas. We enjoy people, conversations, making music and jamming together and love the company of young people.
