    Description

    Hello! my name is Shannon and I live off grid on Little Atlin Lake, about 1 hour from Whitehorse on a large property. We enjoy large dinners together and enjoy the outdoors and projects on the property. So much to explore here. Fishing, hiking, swimming can be done right from the property with White Mountain across the street. I am looking for someone who wants to be immersed in the Lodge life out here and wants to help out with Greenhouse projects, building projects, getting firewood or other tasks. Its a very fun environment with lots of visitors and a welcoming atmosphere.

    Travelers will learn from myself, a long time Yukoner about DIY and building projects, learn english and learn about the area and the Yukon. I am happy to tell travelers about the area and provide a fun opportunity to learn how to live off grid and meet locals. I am happy to teach some basc maintenance skills as well.

    Help

    I am looking for help with DIY building projects, maintenance, help around the house, cooking, firewood and gardening.

    I do run a business here but helpers won't be working on that part such as any interaction with guests or cleaning/maintenance of those spaces, just personal projects on the property and my house and helping look after my dog. I am looking for someone to help with planting a greenhouse starting in May and into the summer too.
