I live in Fremantle, Western Australia. It is the port of Perth and has some interesting history.
I am a mature-aged woman with adult children who live overseas. I do a lot of travelling - mostly to the
Netherlands and Amsterdam where I used to live. I am an artist (oil paintings) and am a guide at the Art
Gallery of Western Australia. I also love to cycle and have done some tours in Holland and Italy.
I am more than happy to pet sit/care - this does not have to be an exchange.

The neighbourhood is very friendly. It is only a few minutes walk into town or free CAT bus at the end of the street can drop you at the railway station. Even though close to everything we are far enough away for a quiet, restful stay.
