  Description

  Hello, my name is Maria. I am about 80 years old and I currently live on my own in a lovely house with a garden. I am a very social, out-going person and I love to have people around to keep me young!!
  I have lived in Melbourne all my life, since I moved from Greece when I was 15! Now, I live in a peaceful inner-city suburb of Melbourne called Ivanhoe East. We have parks, shops, and cafes within a 10/15 minute walk and are well connected to the city via a bus stop right outside, and the train, which is a 10 minute walk.
  I live a quiet life, mainly tending to my garden, watching TV and cooking delicious Greek meals. However, I have a big family and lots of friends and neighbors who pop by for a chat during the week or we go to dinner from time to time.
  As well as my home in Ivanhoe, I also have a house close to the beach, an hours drive away, and love to take other people there to spend time with me.
  I have no pets, but my neighbors little dog TooToo often spends time with me when her parents are busy working, so I hope you don't mind dogs :)
  I mainly am looking for someone I can chat to and spend some time with when you are free. However, I will give you some jobs, like gardening or things around the house. I like to cook, but it is nice if we can share the cooking. I keep a very tidy home and I hope that you will help me to keep it that way.

  Autres infos...

  I am flexible, the number of hours of work doesn't matter so much. I more would like the company of someone else in the house, who I can go for walks, watch movies or have dinner with. I also respect you will have your own things to do some of the time.
