Description
Hello! We live in beautiful Cap-Rouge in Quebec city and we are a family of 3 humans and 3 furry animals (2 cats and 1 puppy). I have myself used workaway in New-Zealand, Australia and Indonesia and feel like doing the same but now as a host! We are looking forward to welcome you into our house to help us with our busy schedule. You will mainly help us with the daily tasks such as cooking, playing with the baby or animals, or if you are handy, we will have some projets for you like to build agility obstacles for the dog, work on the fence or gardening! We only want out of our daily routine and, while having a guest at home, it will help us to get out of the house and rediscover our beautiful region while showing it to you! Staying with us is perfect if you need a break from spending money or are tired of hostels for 1-2 weeks or if you need some quiet time to figure out what your next step is going to be during your travels!

Thank you so much for the incredible time I was able to spend with you! I can't believe that two weeks have already passed. I loved going to the waterfalls with you, helping you with the gardening, sharing German and French recipes with you and learning a lot about your culture!
