Description
Helping us is a way to help a family live a better life!
Hello, we are a bilingual family (me Marco, my spouse Rebecca and our small daughter Dina).
I, Marco, have 3 properties that I have to maintain but I simply do not have enough time to do everything. I love cooking for others and meeting new people so I thought I could give it a try.
My spouse, Rebecca, is a real estate appraiser. She also likes cooking and taking care of us but needs help with property maintenance.
We both want to be able to live at our cottage house in Entrelacs. Our cottage house is big. The structure is solid but it hasn’t been maintained and we have to rebuild Some of the walls, take care of the roof and many other things.
Types of help and learning opportunities
Art Projects
DIY and building projects
Help around the house
General Maintenance
Help with Computers/ Internet
Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
If you come to our cottage, you will be surounded with trees. There is also a river right next to us (2 minute walk). You’ll be able to learn about quebec’s culture and eat traditionnal quebecois food. We can also teach you french or english. And I think we are a great stepping stone to Montreal because we have lots of connections.
