  Beschreibung

  We are an active semi-retired couple with a wonderful big Bernese/Newfie dog on a small Island on the West Coast of British Columbia, Canada. We expanded our drip irrigation system to support the (re)introduction of native plant species to our waterfront island landscape thanks with the help of WorkAway's last year. Now we need help weeding the banks, veggie garden and getting the yard in shape for summer. The swimming pool needs some descaling, power-washing kayaks and general yard maintenance.

  Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten

  British Columbia has one of the largest coastal temperate rainforests in the world, and yet, we often don't have sufficient water! Living on traditional territories of the K'omox First Nations and Coast Salish peoples, there is a rich cultural groundedness here. Local celebrations include many important and historical events in the colonization (and hopefully, decolonization) of First Nations people all over the province.

  Unterkunft

  We can provide amazing detached waterfront accommodation for a couple (or two friends who don't mind sharing a queen bed) who enjoy outdoor activities such as paddling, hiking, biking, and swimming with access to a heated swimming pool and hot tub! (paddle boards, bicycles, etc. available for use)
  We are an animal friendly, non- smoking plant based home and are happy to provide food and some shared meals that support this lifestyle to compatible working people.
