Meet Ophelie, your go
to person for all
things Newtown.
Originally from France, Ophelie has been living in the Inner West for the past 3 years. She fell in love with its vibrant atmosphere – there is always something to do or discover, and lots of cafes or pubs to hang out at! Her favourites are: the famous Newtown Hotel, with its pool tables and terrace and the hidden bar Earlsjukejoint down King Street – their cocktails are a definite 10/10! With previous work experiences in property management, hospitality, and summer camp management, becoming a community manager felt like the next natural step in her professional journey.
“Being part of a community resonates with me as I grew up in a small village in the South of France, where people are helping each other. From a young age I also really enjoyed going on road trips to different parts of the world, which is where I got into the community vibe in backpacker accommodations and share houses. Curious by nature, I enjoy learning about others’ backgrounds and cultures. I’m happy to share tips, good times, and (French) food with the community!”
