    Beschreibung

    Hello all, my name is Robin. I own an eco-home on a small hobby farm with a view of the incredible Bay of Fundy (the highest tides in the world). I live there full time, along with my mother (who moved in with me just this July).

    I work full-time hours from home. But when I'm not at my computer, I'm often outside working on one of the many projects on my long, long, long to-do list.

    I don't currently have any animals, but I have a pretty big orchard, a few beds of garlic and LOTS of berry bushes which will be ready and ripe to pick, depending on the time of year.

    The home has three bedrooms and is both passive solar and actual solar, meaning that (if you don't count the wood stove) we are completely carbon neutral.

    Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten

    I have lots of experience with work and cultural exchange. I'm a former Workawayer and I even grew up on a farm that hosted volunteers.

    I've used other platforms and had my own exciting travels. I also know the local area well and would be happy to show you the incredible Bay of Fundy. I'd be happy to exchange travel stories, talk about Canadian culture and learn a bit about where you're from.

    I am by no means an expert, but I certainly have some skills to share. I know my way around the hammer or drill and can pass along some knowledge. If you come with some skills, I would also be very happy to learn from you.

    Arbeit

    I'm currently excited to tackle a number of tasks on my to do list including: pruning the apple trees, fixing the drywall in various spots around the house, cutting up and lugging firewood, mulching the flower beds, tidying up the the old chicken pens, and more!

    We can work together during the weekends and in the evening, while normal weekday hours you'll be mostly tackling projects alone. That said, my work is flexible, so I can always step away from my computer to answer questions or help out during a break.

  • Unterkunft

    Unterkunft

    I have a lovely room in my home with a comfortable queen bed and a big window.

    If I end up accepting a second person, they would stay in a not-quite-as-charming basement space, which is still very nice, but has a few more spiders.

    In general, dinners and some lunches will be shared, with the responsibilities for cooking alternating between everyone. For those meals that are not shared, the guests are welcome to take from the pantry as needed to make their own lunches and breakfasts. Meals will be healthy and filling, and we can even go shopping together if there are ingredients you'd like for a meal you'd like to make.

    Once the helping day is done, there are tons of things to do in the area. The Bay of Fundy is stunning and there are lots of great beaches and hiking trails. If you stay long enough we may even be able to do the famed Thomas Cove tide-walk - it'll blow your mind! There are lots of beautiful trails here on the property that run alongside a beautiful stream, and under century old crab apples. It's just lovely. And if we feel like staying in, and we are both feeling social (I can be very introverted at times) then we can break out one of the many board games in my extensive collection.
