Beschreibung
I am a very active woman on the Sunshine Coast BC Canada. I have a lovely very private garden with cute cottage like outbuildings, a studio and rental home. I am an artist/gardener. My garden is my current canvas. I have several projects to be done including some gardening, fence work, moss removal from roof, firewood sorting, possibly painting and general yard work. I have a private 3 room art and music studio with a room for a Work away participant to stay, (see photo). There is a full bathroom, tv, wifi and other amenities. Electrical heat. Portable air conditioner. My 2 indoor cats stay there during the daytime and have access to an outdoor cat room. Beautiful setting, and unique buildings on property, only 5 min by car to the small town of Gibsons. Several beaches within walking distance. Also many forested trails nearby. Public transport available. Environmentally friendly, organic garden. Seasonal pond. And 2 small garden ponds. Very sunny. Just over 1/2half acre, but feels larger. A unique and friendly place to visit!

Gibsons is a beautiful coastal town with great restaurants , parks and several music and cultural events. Population under 10,000. Keats island is a short (10min) boat ride away. Lots of beaches a few minutes away. Library, theatres, markets. Very friendly community. Close to the small village of Roberts Creek. Gibsons has free outdoor music events all summer in a park facing the harbour. Forested mountain trails and many streams across the flanks of Mt Elphinstone, just a few minutes above my property. Several small lakes within an hours drive. We think this is one of the most beautiful places on Earth to live. More artists and musicians I think than anywhere in Canada. Vancouver City is a 40 min ferry ride away on a most stunning route. We are on the mainland, but only accessible by ferry. A wonderful paradise to explore.
Arbeit
My first projects involve gardening, small tree trimming, and yard help. Also moss removal from a small one story rental house on the property. A skilled, creative carpenter who also can do some yard work would be handy.

Kitchen has a sink but no stove, though a kettle could be set up and possibly other cooking devices once I feel comfortable with worker. Full bathroom. There is a portable food cooler.

Was noch ...
This is a semi rural area called Elphinstone, just outside of Gibsons Town, which is within a 1/2 hr walking distance. Public transport on our street. The studio is set back from road. We are an organic garden, providing quite a bit of our food. Fully fenced yard, with very little visibility of neighbor's homes. I am looking for some help as a trial for a couple of weeks, perhaps a month, May or June. A capable gardener for weeding etc, and other yard work, like simple tree trimming. Carpentry skills would also be useful at some point. Hiking nearby on Mt Elphinstone, or nearby beaches is popular. Also exploring the sweet scenic oceanside village of Gibsons. And lots of music and dancing available.
