  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  I work at a University and support students, especially those studying from abroad, to adjust to WA. I am always keen to share language and cultural differences with one another. Happy to show you the sights, including beaches. I am keen to give our gardeners, vegetable, native, and sustainable more attention and look at making more 'set ups' for our 4 chickens. I have a Graduate Diploma in Art Psychotherapy but having said that really just enjoy all the many creative activities possible. Plenty of space and equipment to enjoy spinning, weaving, art, etc.

  Help

  I prefer that travelers use the skills they are passionate about or would like to explore and practice. Any carpenters are always very welcome but mainly jobs we can all learn and hopefully enjoy :)
