    Description

    I'm an artist living off my arts and crafts, I'm into gardening and permaculture, bettering myself, and sharing my grey-hair wisdom. I'm a traveller at heart, been on the road for 50 years and decided to settle down in one of the most beautiful areas. I'm a barefoot wanderer, and always have lots of stories to share.
    We are a permaculture community located in Denmark in WA’s Great Southern. We practice re-wilding, regenerative farming, and harmonious living. We’re all about recycling and repurposing wherever possible, which often includes making heaps of art that decorates the community.
    Accommodation varies but always includes a great view and access to fruit trees, gardens, lakes, bush, and free-roaming creatures. We’re close to the ocean and close to town, which is accessible on-foot.
    Our community is centred on honesty, connection, and giving back. We have lots of music, arts, and creative activities.
    We are in the same community as Brenna and Charlie, also on this website :)

  • Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    As a community close to a wider community in Denmark, we've got lots of local events on a weekly and monthly basis, including soup kitchen meals, dance and yoga classes, craft workshops, environmental workshops, and arts experiences. There are plenty of local concerts, great beach and surf spots, epic bushwalking routes and cycle tracks, and a great local atmosphere.
    I'm open to learning about and experiencing different cultures and humans.
