'Bendigo's a healthy place to live and there's less stress. We've been able to build our dream home on half an acre. What's incredible is that we live on a big block but we're still really central to town. It takes me four and a half minutes to get the kids to school and 8 minutes to get into central Bendigo.

Everything is so close here. We love the cafes in View Street or taking the kids to Rosalind Park. Matt loves visiting the second hand book stores and taking the kids out along the O'Keefe Rail Trail.

We also have great schools to choose from. The teachers are really caring and they get involved in the whole community.

We love how sporty Bendigo is. We're all really into it and love the footy and netball. Bendigo is a beautiful place and I'm thankful that we live here.'
