We are active and healthy and enjoy hiking, biking, swimming and skiing as daily activities, like many people in this area! We are very easy going and always ready for adventure.

Vernon is a safe and beautiful BC town! There is much to see and do from stepping outside our door to within an hour of our house from incredible golfing, water sports, vineyards, homesteading and organic living. We are a loving family and respect is our number one value. I believe in family dinners where we can reconnect after the day.

Help
We are a dynamic and busy family with 5, 8 and 9 year old children who are lots of fun ideally looking for a long term work-away! Ideally One to Six Months.
Having an international licence with a clean driving record is a bonus but not mandatory. We love to eat! So if you like to cook that is also a bonus! Definitely extra hands in the kitchen is a must with food prep, etc.
Help with the garden, for example picking the morning strawberries for homemade waffles and letting the chickens out and collecting eggs are a part of our daily routine.
Spending time with the kids, going for hikes, and speaking French or Spanish is another bonus but not mandatory! The kids already speak a lot of French and some Spanish. Mostly, an attitude of gratitude and a willingness to learn with kindness is all we really require!Languages
