Hello
We are now a busy couple. I work in an immigrant welcome centre that helps newcomers settle into the area with services like English classes and employment services.

We own a large home with 2 bedroom rental suite on edge of a small town close to buses and shopping. We have a small dog, two cats and even have some chickens for fresh eggs. I enjoy cooking healthy meals from our vegetable garden. We enjoy traveling and meeting new people.Types of help and learning opportunities
