Eco-friendly means house has ceiling and under floor insulation, some passive cooling, rain water tank and wood heater (and i produce a lot of wood on the block too).

My Bio:
I am self-employed and professionally qualified with degrees in economics from ANU. I Formerly worked in economics/finance and the Public Service. I have periodic employment with AEC and ABS.
My Interests include conservation and environment especially native grasslands and dry woodlands, feral fauna and flora control, beer brewing and drinking, restoring old and antique furniture, restoring old Holden’s (ie my green HR), weight training, motor biking and cycling. I have a ‘physically fit’ lifestyle. I’m also an advocate of ‘sustainability’: ie. Own food production and consumption, habitat re-newel for native wildlife, energy efficiency, recycling, composting and I am water and waste wise. I go out with friends and to the pub a lot. I am also regularly in the Albury/Wodonga area with business and family.
I want to rent a room in my home as I am often away so the place can often be vacant and then sometimes it is a bit dull living in a house by yourself.
