About this role
Some people have lived lives filled with adventure, passion and extraordinary experiences. This lovely older lady in Kyeemagh is one of them.
Originally from Sydney, she has a fascinating story to tell. A former professional dancer, she later developed a love for aviation and adventure, completing thousands of hang gliding flights and dedicating countless hours to pursuing her pilot's licence.
Today, she enjoys sharing memories, chatting about life's adventures, and spending time with friendly people who are interested in hearing her stories and creating new ones together. Whether it's enjoying a conversation over a coffee, heading out for a gentle outing, or simply sharing a laugh, your company could bring connection and joy to her week.
Friendly, engaging and full of character, she would love to build a genuine friendship with someone who enjoys conversation and values the wisdom and experiences that come with a life well lived.
30-minute social visits, weekly or fortnightly. Times can be arranged around your availability.
Sometimes the best adventures begin with a simple hello.
