Come and help our family with spring gardens and enjoy nature in Beasley, Canada

Beschreibung

We live in the forest 10 km from town. The house has large gardens and we need help in the spring cleaning and preparing the gardens. I am a retired schoolteacher and my husband is a helicopter ski guide. Our adult son is also a guide and no longer lives at home.
Unfortunately we will be unable to host in April, but May is still a possibility.

Was noch ...

We are 10 kilometres from town (Nelson, BC). There is a public bus 6 days per week, but not at night. We live on a steep forested property by the river where we canoe. It is a true Canadian rural lifestyle and village or city dwellers could feel isolated. I go to town often for yoga classes, to see friends and to shop for food.
