Hello!
Every trip I have made in Western Canada has reinforced my dream of coming back and spend time exploring the mountains, seing wildlife, learning about native culture, embracing Nature on a grand scale, without a return date or final destination. So here I am :-)
I left Quebec in early October (2023), drove across the country with a pickup full of my essential belongings and have been doing multiple house sittings since. I am using Trusted House Sitters and House Sitters Canada. I did not need a WorkAway hosting yet, but it will certainly happen at some point. I will be happy to share my house sitting reviews if you would like.
So far I had to take care of the expected cats and dogs, but also a hobby farm with 150 hens, 10 ducks, 2 geese and 2 rabbits. Another one with 12 adorable hens. They are a lot more fun than I could have imagined!
If you take the time to read my whole profile, you will find out that my work experiences and interests are highly diversified. I am confident that I can be of a great help for many of your projects/needs.
I am very calm, self-sufficient, fit and healthy. I am curious by nature and love exploring/discussing different topics.
I don't do drugs of any kind and never get drunk, even though I enjoy trying out new IPAs and a glass of red wine with a nice meal.
I strongly believe in ''Be and let Be'' while maintaining open, transparent communications.
I wish to discover different regions, meet the locals, stay long enough to bring a significant contribution, until I find a place that I will feel like calling home.
Thank you for reading me and considering what I have to offer!

Here is a brief resume of my current and past professional occupations:
I am operating my own mountain biking products business (www.mtbconsultant.com) and most of my suppliers are happy to accommodate me by drop shipping to my clients.
For several years, I earned my life doing home renovation projects and I can do a lot of different things. I brought my favorite smaller tools with me and already did a few jobs on Vancouver Island this winter.
I did a trail building certification and love working on creating biking or hiking trails.
I have quite a bit of experience with a chainsaw, cutting trees, construction and of course preparing firewood.
I did manage a 16 door condo rental complex for 4 years.
I was a ranger for a large conservative area for two years. I had to go deep into the forest to conduct land surveys, monitor wild animal population, check on the roads and investigate potential infractions within the restricted territory.
I did work in factories and on large construction projects, so I had to operate heavy machinery.
I owned houses, so I am familiar with basic gardening, lawn care, getting ready for winter, snow clearing etc.
I grew up in a rural setting with a dairy farm across the street and was helping them on a daily basis so I am comfortable in that environment. I just did a hobby farm sitting involving 150 hens (keeping the eggs business running), 10 ducks, 2 gees and 2 rabbits.
I am well organized, efficient and a quick learner.
NOTE: If you have bigger renovation projects requiring trade skills that are exceeding what would be normally expected from a Workawayer, I am willing to discuss it and if we come to an agreement, my rate would be exceptionally affordable (In all fairness within the context).Alter

I think that mentioning all the good things that I can share and help with is a great start, but it is also important to express some things that could be a ''deal breaker'', just so we are maximizing our chances of experiencing a genuine good fit. :-)
I need a good Internet connection for my business and keeping in touch with family.
I thoroughly enjoy having conversations, listening to life stories, discussing ideas, fooling around and laughing, but I also regularly need moments of silence.. This means that I could not share bunk beds with a bunch of rowdy young world travelers ;-)
I will travel with my newly acquired 4x4 truck, packed with my favorite tools and some expensive sport equipment (bike, skis, snowshoes and specific clothing), so I will need a parking space and a bit of storage room.
