About the occupants
Hi I am Justin, an Australian academic. Moved to Melbourne a few months ago from the UK! Loving being back!

I am originally a country boy but have spent most of my adult years in cities. I like reading, writing and am trying to get back into stand up comedy.

I am also trying to get a labrador puppy that would likely live with me.

One of my interests is cooking - it got me through lockdown in the UK. Happy to share from time to time. Some cooks i like include Nigella Lawson, Stephanie Alexander and Yotam Ottelenghi.
