Tropical House
DarwinAUD 1,120.00/month
I am now living in Darwin and have resumed hosting - previous references are all NZ. We are Marijke and Ben. I am a health practitioner who works online from home as well as in clinic, and Ben is FIFO (fly in fly out on fortnightly rotation) from WA. I prefer guests to not be at the house during work hours. We have both lived internationally, travel/work in Asia a few times a year, and are interstate a fair bit. We love to host when at home, as some of our loveliest travel experiences have happened when we have stayed with locals ourselves. We have a parrot named Rosie who will sing and chatter to you. She is free flighted but out of respect will be contained for your visit or outside in the garden and will not get in your way. She does love people, especially bearded ones, but I ask you to please not poke fingers in her cage. It's her private space and she doesn't know you. I am happy to cook an evening meal for you by arrangement for a small fee, and can easily cater to food intolerances (In NZ I used to own/run a vegetarian cafe). We look forward to welcoming you to our home. Our only request is that you treat it as one. Smoking is not allowed on the property.
Please have a photo and some words about yourself on your profile. We are pretty easy-going and well travelled ourselves so understand that sometimes the things we take for granted in our own homes and cultures can sometimes not be the same for all. All we ask is that you respect that you are staying in our home, not a hostel/hotel.

Lovely room with louvre windows, insect screens, and tree top views. Air conditioning and a ceiling fan. Wooden floor. Birds are Loud because of the many trees and large garden. You will wake early unless you have earplugs.
