About this space

Our guest room is on the ground floor and includes a queen size sofa bed with a memory foam mattress, TV, and a desk and chair. It has lots of natural light and its own door to our back yard.The bathroom is on the other side of the lounge from the bedroom and will mostly be available for your private use. It does contain our washer/dryer, so we may need to use this, but we have our own bathroom upstairs.The guest room doesn't have its own air con, but there is a split system (cooling + heating) in the lounge which is directly next to the bedroom. The room does have a space heater and ceiling fan if needed. We love to meet people from around the world. The reason we host guests is to learn about a variety of cultures and to share our blend of Australian and American cultures with others.We've lived in San Francisco Bay Area, Boston, Melbourne, Sydney, the NSW Central Coast, and now the Adelaide Hills. This is a lovely area with so much to do: the town of Mount Barker is very walkable and everything is within 5-15 minutes walk. Adelaide is only 30 minutes away by car or the bus takes 45-60 minutes and runs very frequently. In the hills, there are plenty of hikes, wineries, distilleries, cafes and bakeries, lovely small towns, and it's only 45 minutes to a number of beaches.Our house has 4-bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and an open floor plan living, dining and kitchen area.We provide all linens and towels. There is also shampoo, conditioner, body wash and hand soap in the bathroom. We have high-speed WiFi. If you'd like to do laundry, just let us know and we can help you use the washer/dryer. If you need anything during your stay, don't hesitate to ask us.We're happy to provide a light vegan breakfast for you (included in the cost of your stay). If you are interested in other meals, please discuss with us in advance (additional charge will apply).

Australia . Joined in October 2015

Hi! My name is Sierra. I've been vegan since I was about 15, which is over 25 years now. I live with my parter, Adam, who has been vegan for 15+ years. We met in Boston, working as educators at the Museum of Science. Now we run our own video production company that specializes in producing videos for tech companies. We enjoy traveling (most recently to Bulgaria and northern England) and moved to Australia from the US in 2017. We also love hiking, being in nature, reading, spending time in the sauna, and cooking and eating delicious vegan food in huge quantities!
