Description
I am an artist. My practice is theatre for social justice and I am very involved in my community. I reside in a pretty little village in the Eastern Townships, Quebec, Canada. I have chosen to live here full time 4 years ago because the country is beautiful and quiet. I am a mother of three adult daughters and I have two grandchildren who reside in Montreal.
I live alone and I am moving towards retirement. I own two houses in the village, one I rent out to groups for special projects and the other is my home. The house where I live and the grounds that surround it both require much care. I feel overwhelmed by the tasks. I am also in the midst of reorganizing the house and I must admit, I am very "left brain". A person with good skills to reorganize a house properly would be great ! I welcome some help in exchange for room and board for a person who would like to discover this beautiful region of the province of Quebec.
Types of help and learning opportunities
Gardening
Help around the house
General Maintenance
Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Learning the French language, I am a francophone who speaks English. Discovering the nature of the Eastern Township, there are many beautiful walking paths here for hicking. Discovering Montreal (only 100km away) is also possible because I often spend time there for contracts.
Help
Gardening, lawn mowing, some repairs and wall painting.
Languages spoken

Accommodation
I have an independant room available for the workaway in my house. What I cook for myself I will cook for two. Consequently, it is important that the person is an omnivore with no particular dietary requirements. I am open to considering preferences. I just don't want to find myself cooking two different meals.
