Experience Australian wildlife close up and lend a hand with my garden and dogs in a small town South of Perth

Descripción

I live in a small town South of Perth with 3 dogs and a cat. I have 5 chickens for fresh eggs daily.
I have a large garden full of food and flowers.
It is a small cottage on a quiet street away from the hustle and bustle of the city.
I spend many hours on the garden and walking the dogs.
I am a high school teacher in charge of Maths and Science departments.
I play Australian rules football and golf.
My property backs onto beautiful Jarrah forests and we get many wonderful visitors in the area like Bandicoots, kangaroos, emus, birds, lizards, bees and butterflies. Even a few echidnas and quokkas have been seen in our region.
I like to meet people from all over the world and learn about their lives and culture.
