Beschreibung
Hi,
We live and work on a small remote Gulf island called Decourcy Island. Touted as one of the most boater Friendly Islands in the southern gulf islands, Decourcy is an off grid only community with farm stands only and a beautiful provincial marine park that includes hiking, anchorages and camping as well as a beautiful sunny beach. Our family lives here full time with our three and sometimes four children.
We take our kids to school five days a week (weather dependent) on Gabriola island, which has ferry access to Vancouver island as well as all of the other amenities.

The dog is really well behaved and loves pets :)
He showed up with a smile on his face, was thrown right into the mix and fit right in. He is a great conversationalist, was a big help with splitting wood, helping us with gardening and organizing some of of our things. Nils was awesome with the kids and we are so grateful that he was able to come stay with us.
