Description
Hello,
My home is situated on Galiano Island near Montague Provincial Park. I am fixing up an old house and landscaping / gardening the property that was passed down by my family.
Professionally I've been involved in the arts and particulary music for many years so I balance that aspect of my life (which involves a fair bit of travel) with a grounded island life.
I'm looking for hardworking, independent, peaceful easy going people who have the willingness and capacity to work both outdoors and indoors.
Look forward to hearing from you!
