Neighbourhood highlights

Hobart is a vibrant city full of cultural events and diverse experiences to be had. 19th century architecture adorns the streetscapes and you will enjoy the ease of accessibility to places such as constitution dock, Salamanca market and Mt Wellington. There is an excellent shopping precinct and stunning parks and gardens.

There are wonderful places to eat and enjoy wine and coffee. The state cinema has a great selection of films and a fascinating bookshop to check out.

Bushwalking, mountain bike riding and sailing are part of everyday life for many Hobart residents and can be easily accessed by visitors also. MONA offers world class experiences and I can recommend catching the ferry as a great way to get there. Templo and Franklin are famous Australian restaurants and cafes such as Pigeon hole, Hamlet and Small fry are worth a visit.

My work: art teacher
Fun fact: I’ve meditated for months in hermitages
I am from Tasmania and am currently raising a young family of energetic children on my own. We live in Hobart and i spend my time running the accomodations you see here, painting, meditating and listening to excellent music. I am also a passionate art teacher. Prior to this, I travelled a great deal to India and Nepal studying and meditating. I am a great lover of gardening and generally any activity that promotes world peace. I also love bushwalking and being in nature.
