Description
We are a Dutch couple who have been living in Canada for many years. Our house is fairly big and we are becoming older so if you like to help with gardening, cleaning, painting, moving stuff etc maybe we could work something out.
We live in the beautiful Okanagan with lots of fruit trees, wineries and good food. There is plenty of opportunity for hiking, skiing, snowboarding, enjoying the wild life such as deer, coyotes, black bears, etc
We both have our own companies in counselling/psychology and renovations.Types of help and learning opportunities

Help
One of our sons went to Europe for 7 months and was involved in several workaways. This gave us to the idea to see if there is someone out there who likes to help out.

What else ...
If you are looking for a dynamic, city style environment Penticton will NOT be the place for you.....BUT if you are looking for a low key, relaxed beautiful environment then the Okanagan might exactly be what you are looking for!
Apex Mountain is about 45 minutes away from Penticton where you can enjoy all kinds of winter sports. Penticton is located between two lakes which makes it an attractive town for tourists who enjoy sunny water and water recreation. Rock climbing, biking, hiking, fishing, diving are some of the other sports people enjoy here.....A little more information
