    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    For us “cultural exchange” in Cape Breton means, learn how to life without hectic and stress. The Cabot Trail (with beautiful walks) is not far away; cultural first nation centre; Antigonish; opportunities in the house to make or learn music, painting, how to use homeopathic and herbs. Lots of music and Square dances in the area.

    Help

    We (mother and daughter, 26) both have no experience in building, but are excited to learn it by doing, especially doing it with others. We would like to broaden our vegetable garden, build a new small eco-house, make the chicken coop bigger, set up a Mongolian yurt, build a goats-house,…
    Sometimes take care of our animals and the house when we need to visit Europe.
