Description
City home a block from ocean and a lot of facilities. Great accommodations. Great opportunity for some help around the place and lots of time for hiking, cycling, swimming and seeing a beautiful area. It ain't Tofino but it also doesn't have the crowds. Interested in cultural exchange and/or some communication in German. I am interesting and hopes are so are you. Have had wwoofers since 2014 and recently two 18 year olds travelling to Whistler to work. I have excellent references

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Have had helping guests - majority from 18 to 25 - mostly from Europe - specifically Germany; some Asia - Japan and Singapore since 2014. Host is very culturally sensitive; and focused on giving the traveller the best Canadian experience as allowed on the Sunshine Coast. WiFi; televisions; music; library and the house decor is described as a museum.
Help
Yard maintenance. General small projects from framing art to moving out door furniture. Watering lots of outdoor plants. Some cooking - if you are any good at it. Driver licence. Cultural exchange.

Accommodation
Private rooms with own bathrooms. Separate access. One block from big beach area and ocean. Block to stores and restaurants.
What else ...
You can find all the facilities; trails; terrain; on line. Far too many to mention from sea kayaking to laying at the beach. Many young men have challenged the Sunshine Coast trail but usually for only one to two days. All depends on how physical one is - Timo walked everywhere - Florian exercised every day - Lucas tried the trails. List goes on and on.
Last two guests for three weeks before going to Whistler to work - they were numbers 36 and 37. Very good reviews.
