Description
We are a loving family of 4 living in beautiful Revelstoke BC living in the prime location, just blocks from the main downtown, but in a cute neighbourhood with heritage homes. We are in the middle of a renovation of our house and would love to get some jobs wrapped up!

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We would love to share with you a small town experience and enjoy cooking and eating fresh food from our garden. My husband is a designer/builder, and I am a teacher. Within walking distance to nearly everything, we enjoy an outdoor lifestyle, surrounded by rivers, lakes, and amazing mountains. We are both creative and easygoing, openminded and enjoy visitors from other cultures.

Accommodation
We have a bedroom on the top floor of our house for you with a queen size bed. The house is cozy with all three bedrooms upstairs. We hope to share meals. We eat everything and have no allergies. I love to cook ethnic and gourmet foods. :)
What else ...
Revelstoke Mountain Resort is just an 8 minute drive from our house, offering world-class skiing and snowboarding in the winter. Summers here are amazing for hiking, mountain biking, swimming and exploring the Canadian wilderness and wildlife. The city of Revelstoke is small but full of life! There are many great restaurants and the Performing Arts Centre where you can check out live performances. You will find many outdoors clubs to join, and the recreation facilities are also very nice. Our children are 4 and 6 so we hope that guests are respectful. No smokers please. We do enjoy good conversations and boardgames and hope that you would be a part of our family during your time here.
