About the host

Hosted by Jenny Smith

Host profile image
I am originally a Ballarat girl. Moved to Papua New Guinea for 16 years to work for a very large security company as their National Kennel Manager. I trained protection & detection dogs. In 2016 my husband, daughter (Jessica 11 years old at the time) & I had to leave PNG very abruptly after my husband of 23yrs was diagnosed with terminal lung cancer. He passed away in 2017. I decided to stay in Australia at least until Jessica's schooling was completed but I could not cope being on a normal house block after having lived on large acreage all my life. As I am sure you all are aware, private schooling isn't cheap, especially for a single mum, so I started an import company and the BNB listings. I like meeting people & have had 10 yrs experience in hospitality, so hosting suits me perfectly.

Why they chose this property

Country area but close to city.

What makes this property unique

The kangaroos, wildlife & beautiful sunsets.
