Description
What you see, is the Profile for Chris and Nici and our cat Tami. In January 2016 we started with travelling around the world for the next years.
The normal life with all the people who are concentrated at their career and getting more and more money or material stuff, isn`t the right life for us.

We crave for new challenges, kind people and for the peacefulness in nature.

Since both have learned a crafting profession, it`s the best for us to do something with our hands.
Nici also loves cooking and managing the household. Her cat Tami is a good Workawayer as well, like we experienced the last times. If you wanna get rid of mice, let Tami do her job ;).
Anyway we`re hardworking and flexible with work.

We love the outdoors the most. Activities like fishing, hiking, camping and biking belongs to us. To play music is also a big part of us. Animals are our friends, we like nearly every kind of animal. We like to spend time with friends at a campfire, it's something very beautiful.

Denis and Rita... I don`t quite know where to start. We made the decision to leave the other workaway host we stayed with before for some reasons, they are no longer part of workaway. So we left that one place and literally went around to knock on various doors and introduce people about what we`re looking for and what we`re doing. On that way we… read more met Denis and Rita!
From the first talk we had it felt good, really good. Our meeting was a happening they both were praying for. This memory gives us goosebumps everytime.
From that time on for 3 months it began the best time of our whole travels through different country`s. We helped them with everything that was needed to be done. To work with Denis was always a pleasure. His way of doing things with such a positive attitude is overwhelming. I will always look up to this guy ;) . His wife Rita and her great Art-Studio we wont forget either! She is a wonderful artist with lots and lots of amazing ideas and ongoing projects!

Whoever is planning on visiting Bella Coola, make sure you send Denis and Rita a request!

Some words to Bella Coola... while we stayed with Denis and Rita, we had enough time to do whatever we wanted to do. Bella Coola and the great bear rainforest ist famous for the Bear Viewing! Seriously there are bears all over the valley! We had a few encounters with bears, even once I almost cycled into a sow with her two cubs, unforgettable memories are coming up when thinking about Bella Coola! We made many friends in the valley and got also opportunities to do babysitting and housesitting. Nici entered at the local fall festival the soup-cookoff and won 100$ for being on the first place with her yummy soup`s!
People in Bella Coola are very friendly and open minded to travellers. If you walk down the Highway 20 people will wave at you out of there cars, we really like that! So don`t forget to wave to the cars passing by.
When fall kicks in you need to go mushroom picking, there are so many different kinds of mushrooms in the valley, that`s amazing! The most famous one is the Pine Mushroom or Matsutake, many people are just coming to BC for picking them. We had quite a hard time to finally find some of them, but once you know what you need to look for you`ll find em pretty easy!
There would be lots of things I`d like to say about Denis and Rita or the Bella Coola Valley, but I guess that would take a lot of time to write it all down in here. And of course everybody should experience the valley out of his own eyes!

Dear Denis and Rita, we miss you so much it`s hard to describe. We hope we once get to see you both again, somehow we should make that happen!

Lots of hugs are send to you,
Chris and Nici

We stayed at Levajok more than two months and we absolutely enjoyed the time there.
Together with Molle we managed the different tasks on the place during the weekdays. Bodil and Bernt are both very kind and warmhearted, they made us feel good all the time :)
Now we know so many people from around Levajok and Norway, that's amazing.
On this way… read more

I really enjoyed Chris and Niki being here, they are both enthusiastic, down to earth and great company. It was also really nice that they made friends here and made a positive contribution to our small community.
I hope they find thier own peaceful little "bolthole" ön thier travels.

I had my first workaway experience here. My wish to meet a kind and open minded person come true with Klaus. People like him are rare in our life. The time we spend on his place was really fantastic. I`ve lerned many new things about farming, animals and the life with nature!
