  Description

  I live alone in a fabulous location on the south east coast of Sydney. I am close enough to the city to enjoy that vibe but I am surrounded by the quiet of a small seaside suburb. I love my garden and it keeps be busy and my 2 dogs keep me company.
  
  I spend some time away visiting and caring for family My neighbours are like family and as I have lived here for 30 plus years i know my area very well. I ride my bike to where I need to go locally but have public transport at my doorstep for longer trips.
  
  I am an active outdoors person I am involved with some charity work ( Wrap With Love) and am intending to return to community gardening soon.
  
  At times I will be away from home for a few days. In this time you may be asked to care for the house plants , garden and pets ( feeding and walking 2 small friendly dogs) and ensure the house is secure when you are not there.

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  I am an art teacher ( retired) and I love showing off beautiful Sydney to visitors especially its waterways, harbour walks, architecture, artworks and hidden gems. I speak fluid Italian and have travelled a fair bit but would love to hear about other places and experiences people have had. I know Sydney well and my area particularly well. I know the national
  Parks near me and their natural and cultural significance. Surfing, bushwalking skateboarding, snorkelling, rock fishing, cycling, outdoor gymnasiums, social clubs are all easily accessible. I’d be very happy to share my knowledge and have company on any of these activities.
