About the host
Hosted by Nina Huchthausen
Hi there, we are a family of 3 - Adam, Nina & baby Teo and have made the plunge from the city to our beautiful town Agnes Water earlier this year and have just completed the design & build of our very first guest house - named after our cousin Josh. He not only built the guesthouse but also the kitchen, dining booth and living room furniture.
We live above the guesthouse in our Queenslander and you might see us occasionally as we will share the same backyard. However, we will make sure to give you maximum privacy.
