  Description

  Our current workawayer is moving forward this week. We have a room as of April 28th.
  This place is a family home. I am a single parent of a 7 year old boy named Noah. He goes to first grade at the school in the village. We lived a year in the jungle of Costa Rica where Noah went to kindergarten. Now we are integrating the English and the French, the winter and the busy lifestyle again. The thought of hosting a workaway is very exciting as the "traveler" vibe is one that resonates a lot with me and Noah.
  
  I look for a person who is devoted and willing to share their light with our family. Authenticity, high-vibe and positive energy is welcome.
  
  I mainly need help after school where Noah enjoys going down to throw rocks at the beach, bike or play ball. We have a little forest behind and he also enjoys building tree houses or just getting creative. He speaks Spanish English and French. Ideally, the person speaks English with him to strengthen his English communication skills.
  
  Our home is located just a few minute walk from the lake where you can enjoy sauna and cold plunge in the winter or beach and sunsets in the summer. There is a charming cafe and a couple of restaurants down the street along with our village grocery store. We are located 20mins car ride to the city of Sherbrooke. There is not much public transportation here, however I do have a car and drive regularly to town.
  I am a yoga teacher, artist and coach.
  I like to be on the movement, meet new people, share ideas and innovative perspectives.
  
  I love to share meals, so if you are willing to join-in on the cooking I will gladly take your help.
  
  I typically would love to host an optimistic human being who cherishes family values.
  I am happy to host short term and long term!
  
  Remember, there is a child in the house, so we manage everything with family atmosphere and harmony. It is indispensable to have a responsible and kid-friendly attitude ! This house is drug and alcohol free.
  
  We have a small lovely dog.
  
  Happy to meet you soon !
