Nice to meet you;

my name is Fay and am a teacher with a current Working With Children Check and a current VIctorian Institute registration as teacher.
I have been a Homestay host mum for over 20 years and hosted all genders and nationalities across the world.
My children are now away overseas hence i have 3 rooms available for you.

i live in a great Victorian house (not an apartment or unit) with a backyard.
I live in Armadale which is now considered one of Melbourne's leading locations and is close to all transport, shops , and schools and colleges;Only 20 minutes via Armadale train station to the CBD.
We are situated 10 minutes to the train station and all other transport is just 2 minutes away.
Close to a great library gyms and cafes and shops and restaurant and a terrific shopping centre.
A really good location.

I'd love to speak with you further so please don't hesitate to contact me on my email or mobile as i have some rooms coming up now.

Many thanks
cheers

    Fay' s house is beautiful and she is a very easy-going person. Actually I wanted to know something about my school and learning English when I went to Australia, and I was very grateful that she gave me some suggestions. But due to my English was not very good, especailly speaking and listening. so unfortunately I didn't communicate with Fay a lot. Meanwhile, there was Jesse who was about to go to Melbourne University and gave me a lot of suggestions. So I hope my language will improve in the future and have more opportunities to communicate with Fay.

    The host cancelled the booking 7 days before the arrival date.

How do I book?

Contact the host to check their availability and ask them any questions you have about staying with them. Once the host confirms they’re available for your dates, you can complete your booking.

When do I pay?

Once a host confirms they're available, you can go ahead and pay the 15% booking fee (maximum of 250 $£€ for longer term bookings) using a choice of payment methods: Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Maestro, Laser, JCB & PayPal (not available in certain countries). You then pay your host on arrival or as stated by your host on their profile and agreed by you on booking. Please be cautious if a host requests advance payment if its not included on their profile. Our hosts have been advised that if they wish to request advance payment they must make this explicit in their profile. We do not recommend the use of Money gram or Western Union.

When can I share my contact details?

Host and Guest email address, phone number and home address will be exchanged in a confirmation email sent to both immediately after a booking is completed. It's against our policy for Guests and Hosts to exchange direct contact details via our messaging system.
