    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    I am a big foodie, and love to cook all different gourmet and ethnic food. I love being active, and practicing living mindfully. You would learn about Canadian Culture; living by the ocean and a nature park abundant with old growth trees. I also love to exercise, and have a beautiful space to stretch out and find a little peace.

    What else ...

    Walking distance to hiking and biking trails and beaches. A bike would be provided as well to explore the surrounding areas. When my kids are home, and not in school; we are always at a park or a beach and out exploring and love being hosts to this beautiful Island. My husband and I like quiet evenings after dinner upstairs by ourselves after the kids go to bed and would like to be able to go out and have date nights without the kids. We expect that our workawayer to clean up after themselves, does your own laundry, and to have a positive attitude about genuinely wanting to help out with the chores in and around the house.
