What else ...
Lauren: I'm a 27-year-old from England currently on my 2nd year in Australia and especially excited to discover Perth! I'm an active person always up for new experiences. In Melbourne I took up aerial dance as a new hobby. I have a passion for photography and travelling and have had the amazing opportunity to visit over 40 countries. I love learning about different cultures and experiencing the local way of life.
I'm a respectful housemate and I
enjoy meeting new people. I'm keen to immerse myself in your project and I'm ready to learn, contribute, and make the most of my time in Perth.
Hedzer: I'm a 24-year-old from the Netherlands on my first year in Australia. Last year, I spent a month here with my partner Lauren and instantly knew I had to come back. I’m currently taking a break from running my own sales and marketing business to fully embrace this adventure, meet new people, and gain hands on experience in different kinds of work.
I love staying active and enjoy a good physical challenge. I love meeting new people and I’m always up for a good conversation and enjoy bringing positive energy to any setting.Some more information
