Description
Welcome! We are looking for a beautiful human to share space with! Myself (Megan), and my twin boys (Eli and Ezra) who are 8 years old, live on 2 acres of private ocean front property. We are looking for support driving the children to and from school, as well as cooking and cleaning.
We have a kayak and 2 paddle boards that you are welcome to use, and are surrounded by amazing hiking trails. You can harvest muscles and oysters and catch fish in the front yard!
As a family, we love to be outdoors gardening, wildcrafting and connecting with nature. I (Megan) am a Medical herbalist. As a household we are passionate about nature, health, spirituality and whole foods. My children attend the local Waldorf school. We eat organically, and as local as possible, so healthy food will be available daily!!

We look forward to hearing from you :)Types of help and learning opportunities
Help around the houseCultural exchange and learning opportunities
This is a beautiful ocean front property on Vancouver Island. Through this exchange you will have an opportunity to connect with nature, the ocean and kayak. I often host "plant spirit mediation" evenings, and you are welcome to attend these 3 hour events free of charge. You will also have an opportunity (if interested) to spend time on the organic herbal farm, medicine making and in the herbal apothecary.

English: Fluent
Accommodation
We live in a 3 bedroom beautiful ocean front home. I have had to convert the guest bedroom into an office space, where I see clients 3 days per week. We have many sleeping mats; however, they will have to be rolled up and put away when I see clients on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. During this time, you are welcome to take the car, or enjoy the upstairs of the home.
What else ...
On your time off, there is a great deal of nature to explore (rivers, ocean, lake) and a mountain to hike in the backyard. There are events that happen on the farm and in the community throughout the year, including music festivals, concerts, yoga, meditation, workshops, herbal teachings, and 5-rhythm dance. It is also only a short bike ride downtown.

Meg will show you the surroundings of Vancouver Island and if you're lucky there are even festivals, bands or other great offers you can often watch for free. It… read more
