The Waterfront Trail runs along the Lake Ontario shoreline. Our house is a short distance away from Rouge Beach.
  We live in a large, comfortable home in a beautiful and quiet neighborhood surrounded by nature.
  
  We are approximately a 30-minute drive from Toronto Pearson International Airport. We are just 5 minutes drive from highway 401. Getting to downtown Toronto is easy as well—just a 30-minute GO train ride to all the major attractions, museums, restaurants, and vibrant city life.

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  As a family, my twin boys and I are very passionate about cooking and baking. We love experimenting with new flavors and sharing meals together, so we would be delighted if our WorkAwayer joins us in the kitchen and brings their own creativity and cultural dishes into our home.
  
  We also enjoy hiking and traveling, and we have many stories and experiences to share during your stay. Our home is located close to Toronto’s only national park, the beautiful Rouge Valley National Park, where you can enjoy long hikes, peaceful nature, and stunning scenery right in our neighborhood.
  
  We hope to create a warm, fun, and cultural exchange where we learn from each other and enjoy memorable moments together.
