Description

We are a couple who have worked at universities and writing schools in Australia. I am 'Paddy' a writer and writing teacher, and my partner, Anthony works in international educations as an advisor. I am the author of 10 books and numerous articles and essays - it means we have lots of books and see the house as a creative space for writing and study. We are travelling for 3 months so ideally are looking for someone to stay the whole time. It is not a party house, and the house is semi-detached, so we need one person or a couple who live quietly and will water the garden.
