Description
I am Matt. I am fortunate to live in one of the most beautiful parts of the province. I am the care taker of our family's 17 acre oasis. It's a rural, developing property with a creek flowing through, at the base of our own mountain, and minutes from the impeccable Dunn Lake. My partner and her boys spend lots of time up here, though she owns a house in town, so is back and forth. I have a 10 year old husky mutt, who has been my best friend. He's a really good boy, and his name is Sanka.
I am a carpenter by trade, and my passions include snowboarding, nature, gardening, music, hard work, and being creative. I express my creativity through my work, and with wood. There is a never-ending list of projects at the cabin. I tend to be a bit of a dreamer, but over the years, managed to make a lot of these come true. There is always something new and exciting to do out here, and is very hard to find yourself bored.

I love human interaction, and enjoy learning with and from others. I have various skills to teach. I love showing folks around our area, and sharing these experiences with them.

I have constant projects on the go. From gardening, fencing, firewooding, building cabins, landscaping, garden/yard upkeep. There is always something to do! Though we tend to keep er chill round here, while enjoying all the area has to offer. Non stop fun!
