Lives in Melbourne, Australia
I have lived in Melbourne all my life and during my youthful years went to the Dandenong Ranges on many occasions for bush walks and picnics with my family. One of the highlights for me was travelling on the Puffing Billy Railway. In later years I became a volunteer at the railway and work as a fireman on the steam locomotives and help in the workshops occasionally. I have been living in the Cockatoo area for three years now and just love it, the peace and quiet and the beautiful scenery is everywhere, I should have moved up here years ago. My wife Ket, is a friendly and easy-going person. We have a lovely two storey mud brick home situated in Cockatoo, with 5 bedrooms and three bathrooms, so we have plenty of room for guests. We are proud to present our home to our guests for their use. We hope you enjoy our beloved Dandenong's as we do.
