Description
A dad and his little girl who travels the world, enjoys hosting lots, and seeking out adventures. We spend our time diving, jumping out of planes, playing music, dancing and climbing trees. The little one, almost 3 runs around everywhere! I'm a big dreamer without enough hands to do the work I want to do! Who wants to share stories, help out, and stay in Victoria for a bit?

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
I've hosted hundreds of people and love the hospitality portion. I really enjoy taking my guests to some amazing spots on Vancouver Island and suggesting places to go when I'm not available. I'm doing a home renovation project and visitors will also learn lots of things about rebuilding a home to include electrical wiring, framing, tiling, building cabinets, home siding, and more.
Projects involving children
This project could involve children. For more information see our guidelines and tips here.
Help
We are doing a home renovation project and could use a hand doing a lot of the landscaping portion. There will be lots of digging, moving huge loads as well as reconstructing the house inside.
The little one is pure happiness! Hoping to find people who enjoy children as it would be occasionally really nice to get some work done while someone keeps her attention. This wouldn't be the regular work but would be an exceptional break!
The response percentage is very low because covid killed the hosting, but alas we are back! Message if you're serious. :)

What else ...
I live on a direct bus route to downtown Victoria, so it's easy to access when you want to go enjoy the city. If you come with a vehicle, it's actually pretty good as well since I live in close proximity to many great outdoor adventures.

Kyle is such a low-key (but full of energy!) and down-to earth man to live with! It was an absolute pleasure to know about is passion for the outdoor world and great commitment to our society. Having been a member of the Canadian Force… read more
