Descripción
I live with my husband and 7 year old daughter on a hobby farm in south east Melbourne, I have a background of natural horsemanship/ classical dressage/positive reinforcement training and if people are keen to learn about horses, I am happy to show/teach you what I know. I love nature, animals, good company, and learning new things :) Please note if you are interested in horse riding, on a case by case basis we always start with learning with the horses on the ground which progresses into liberty and ridden training. I do not provide riding gear etc, you will need to provide your own safety gear.
During COVID I started some hobbies including dabbling with plants/veggies and sourdough bread with a background of loving baking beforehand. Hubby loves wheels and outdoor activities, he can speak Chinese much better than me (I am an ABC).
We are happy to help assist with transportation to train stations etc and help with advice about shopping for cars etc if you are here on a WHV. We welcome you as part of our family during your stay. We are a non-smoking, drug free family.Tipos de ayuda y oportunidades de aprendizaje
