  • Description

    Description

    We are dreamers that left the Laurentians region (Northern part of Montreal) to move 10hrs away and be self-sufficient. Our fantastic old house sits on 8 5 acres facing the Bay of Gaspé. We live 3 min away from 2 beaches. We live in the wonderful area of Cap aux Os, a small community surrounded by Parc Forillon. We ve had workaways before and have had wonderful experiences. We currently need 1 or 2 workaways to come help us with piling the wood in the house and around the house for the winter months to come. Its a job that needs strenght. Between the two of us, we speak French, English , German and Flemish and we loooove cooking.

    What else ...

    We live surrounded by the national Park Forillon and a 20min from Gaspé. We have many people doing workaway or Woofing in the area and everyone is used to see hitch hikers and give them ride to and from the closest town. Its a nice natural environment, surrounds by 2 beaches 3 min on each side of our land. So even if you don t have a car here, you can easily travel around. ;)
