Fun family 5 min from downtown Vancouver, Canada!

Description

Hello! Bonjour! Hola!

We are a happy, busy family with two kids (7&10) in beautiful Vancouver, Canada. We are looking to host someone starting in September 2019 for at least 3 months.

Vancouver is a spectacular city and we are lucky to live close to downtown. If you like the outdoors, you will fall in love!

We have had many different au pairs, travellers and friends stay with us over the years - we love opening up our home and sharing all that Vancouver has to offer.

We are only interested in hosting workawayers who stay will stay for 3 months or more - no short term requests please.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

We love eating dinner together as a family (including you!) and are happy to help you improve your English and get to know Vancouver.

We spend lots of time outdoors in the mountains and on the beaches on the weekends - we'd be happy to have you come along or give you tips so that you can explore on your own.

Help

We usually need help in the mornings (approximately 7-9am), help with keeping the house tidy and after school or evening a couple times per week. We take turns making dinner so look forward to sharing yummy food with you!

You`ll have lots of time to take courses, get a job, volunteer or just bike along the seawall, go to the beach, go hiking and explore Vancouver!
