  • Description

    Description

    We live in a forested area of Montana yet a short drive from a quaint town and amazing alpine hiking country. We are remote workers with 1 German Shepherd and lots of outdoor room to walk or hike. We have land that needs constant care in the form of removal of dead and fallen trees. Cut, split and stack are summer activities that help us to stay fit. Yet we need help and want to share both the help and our idylic lifestyle.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    We are international travels and therefore welcome exchange of ideas and culture. We are vegetarians that often cook on an open camp fire in the summers. Jake is certified as an ESL teacher and speaks Spanish. We expect that our lifestyle may be contagious and that couples that like the forest will ask to come back.

    We are looking for a fit and adventurous couple to help in the forest 2 to 4 hours per day, 3-5 days per week. Comfortable yet strong hiking or work boots will make your feet happy.
