  Beschreibung

  Hello! We are Joelle and Jordan, a musical duo from Newfoundland & Labrador, performing as Ever Sweet. We’re musicians, storytellers, and adventurers who love sharing the music and culture of Newfoundland through song. Joelle is also a fibre artist, working with textiles and natural materials to create unique pieces inspired by Newfoundland’s landscapes and traditions.
  
  We split our time between touring and living close to nature. This summer, we plan to move to a resettled island to expand our garden and bring in sheep, working towards a more sustainable lifestyle surrounded by the beauty of the land and sea.
  
  From April to June 2025, we’ll be on an Atlantic Canada tour and are looking for reliable, nature-loving Workawayers to house-sit our home while we’re away.
  
  What’s involved?
  
  - Enjoying a farm stay in a quiet Newfoundland outport
  - Caring for our hens, garden, and cats
  - Soaking up the beauty of rural Newfoundland while staying in a cozy home
  - If you love animals, nature, and slow living, we'd love to hear from you!

  Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten

  Travellers will have the unique opportunity to experience life in a rural fishing village on the Northeast Coast of Newfoundland, where tradition and nature go hand in hand. You’ll gain insight into the heritage, culture, and way of life in a small coastal community, surrounded by stunning landscapes.
  
  Located near hiking trails, beaches, and the ocean, this area is perfect for exploring Newfoundland’s wild coastline, spotting whales and seabirds, and foraging for berries in season.
  
  As artists and musicians, Joelle and Jordan love sharing their knowledge of Newfoundland folk music, weaving, and fibre arts. Whether you’re interested in learning traditional songs, trying your hand at weaving, or exploring creative projects, we’d be happy to share our skills and stories with you.

  Unterkunft

  We offer two private rooms inside our home, with access to two shared washrooms. There is also a backyard campervan available for those who prefer a more private or outdoor stay.
  
  Workawayers will have full access to the kitchen, living room, backyard, and shed. While we are away, you will be responsible for your own food, but there will be plenty of fresh eggs from our backyard hens to enjoy. When we are home, we love sharing family meals together.
  
  Our home is conveniently located next to a grocery store, and we also have a laundry machine onsite for your use.
