Patrick

I'm a 40-year-old data analyst (physical oceanography) who loves bodyboarding and long distance running. When I'm not crunching numbers associated with physical oceanography, you can find me catching waves or soaking up the sun.
I also love camping and other outdoor activities.

I value my quiet time at home. My space is clean and organised. However, always willing to talk and very sociable.
I would be (relatively) new in a new country but have been to Australia 4 times before for ~ month on holiday where once which was this year (2025) I stayed in Kwinana for 3 months. Was also a share house and everything went smoothly.

I have Australian permanent residence but am still presently living in South Africa (I am South African).

I am arriving in early February 2026. My work for the first year will be remote as I will still be doing my job from South Africa but may have work with colaboraters at the UWA oceans institute. I was a visiting scientist there during my 3 month stint this year (2025).

I would be willing to sign a one year contract and whilst can afford looking for a cheapish price to save money. I will be coming back to South Africa for a month during the course of 2026 but will just continue to pay rent so its irrelevant in many ways - financially especially.

FLEXIBLE AROUND PERTH - BUT PREFER TOWARDS THE SOUTH AND IF POSSIBLE CLOSISH TO THE COAST.
