  Description

  i’m renovating a 150 year old house
  i am up to chipping off the render outside, so it can dry out and then repointing the stones. I am a passionate herbalist / gardener, live in the country, love the beach, have a dog and a cat , so require ppl who are not allergic to animals . My garden is big, full of fruit trees and herbs, i’m 5 km from beach , and about half hour from stringy bark forests and waterfall. lots of wild life, in my garden blue tongue lizards and frogs and sometimes a red belly black snake. lots of birds , kookaburras, and great sunsets. i live a simple life, the city is not close. i also love music and jamming. i speak english and very bad spanish , but if ppl willing to understand me we can talk all day in spanish, i love travelling but usually it’s the place that calls me , i love meeting ppl , but i’m also a recluse, i believe i’m a good cook and make simple healthy food. i don’t smoke , but ok with ppl smoking outside.

  Autres infos...

  there is no public transport, apart from a bus that goes to Adelaide. so own transport is good , i live in the main country town, so there are shops, pub, supermarket, and lots of op shops. i don’t really know many ppl here because i’ve been busy renovating the last two and half years. Markets are held on weekends , and sometimes a show, but i seem to miss them because i don’t really know what’s going on because my life is pretty busy and full, if you like playing music , i have guitars and other instruments. i guess , it’s a more get into nature type of place than go out dancing. So snorkeling , swimming, surfing, hiking, etc.. if you smoke it would have to be outside, i would expect you to respect my home , animals and plants, and be clean. i am an animist. predominantly vegetarian, non smoker.
