Members of our family are "global citizens", combining experiences of living in Eastern Europe, Africa, New Zealand and now North America. There is an opportunity for many lively discussions, exchange of stories and recipes. Apart from interacting with the animals, travelers will also see and participate in environmentally friendly way of life with the aim to become self sufficient as much as practicable. To explore the nature, there are several scenic Provincial Parks and beautiful beaches.
