  Description

  We are a small family of 3 living on the Central Coast with our super-friendly (large) dog and array of native birdlife, we have a daughter who is 6, just starting school and loves all things art! My husband and I both work part-time hours (Bryden works from his home office) and I (Jana) work as an artist & picture-framer (for a local company), and have a small art therapy and counselling clinic. We love our instruments/music, art, gardening, community and family.

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  We have Polynesian/Maori/Tongan/NZ/AU backgrounds we both born and have lived in Australia most our lives. I have only lived on the east-coast so my experience of Australia largely revolves around bushwalking, beaches, fishing and BBQs with friends/family. I know when I have travelled overseas we have enjoyed simply making friends and having conversations about different passions, views and ways of life, this is the most valuable thing we like to offer also. I am also part of a great local artist community, so if you want to see exhibitions, do workshops or anything art related I can definitely help you find some cool stuff to do.

  Aide

  We require help with projects around the home, mostly DIY projects we haven't had much time or confidence to complete. This could be; establishing gardens, tree-lopping, house painting/plastering, handyman work, all the bits and pieces that come with owning a large home and land filled with potential. We welcome any meaningful contribution you may bring and can discuss other options also. If by any chance you play the cello, please teach us! :)
