  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  I am a friendly and sociable individual who enjoys sharing travel stories and helping others practice English (or I can practice my limited knowledge of other languages with other travellers). I would be happy to show hiking trails in the forest where I live to a traveller. I also LOVE to cook and feed people.

  Help

  I have 2 medium sized dogs (50 and 60 lbs) who need minimum of an hour’s walk a day). One dog is anxious around other dogs and has to be kept close on leash and distracted with dog treats if you pass other dogs. Therefore it is very important for any traveller who chooses this assignment to be comfortable with dogs and have some experience with them. Some minor cleaning and a bit of yard work also required.

  Accommodation

  A private bedroom and bathroom will be provided as well as full use of my backyard with sun deck and gazebo for outdoor leisure. Although I don’t cook every day due to my shift work, there will always be food and ready made meals available to consume when convenient for a traveller.
