  Beschreibung

  North Vancouver family is packing to move off grid and need support! Ive become caretaker to my 2 aging parents, and am preparing for a move to our cabin this fall. We live in a 3 bedroom townhome nestled in a beautiful location. Near transit, old growth forest, river with sandy beach steps from our door, and a 15minute walk from the beach, in a Wild Bird reserve. Our backyard is family oriented. You'll hear kids splashing in our outdoor heated pool, or riding their bikes. We enjoy home cooked meals (making foccaccia bread, or homemade pickles, sauerkraut, sauces) and are tight on time these days, so we are looking for support. No alcohol in the home, we dont drink.

  Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten

  We are avid travelers ourselves. Ive lived in Europe for 6 years, (mostly Hungary) my partner abroad for over 10 (South Africa, Asia, Malta, Libya) We volunteer with first nations for Trust support and are tax planners as a profession. We aim to provide a respectful home, and welcome those from many backgrounds. I love learning foods from many cultures and would welcome meeting someone from a place we havent visited yet. I cook traditional food atleast once a week from Hungary. Otherwise mostly American /Italian/Greek style food . I am vegetarian, but eat Fish and eggs regularly. My son is interested in Video Game development and is building a game. Im building an app in my spare time. We have a property that is boat access only. For the right fit we may be able to extend a stay to include time up the indian Arm as it will need extensive repairs over the next year.

  Hier sind Haustiere in der Regel willkommen

  We lost our dog 2 Christmases ago and miss her dearly. Would accept a well behaved (smaller) dog. We had a springer spaniel. No pitbulls, sorry
