  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  I like to teach skills in gardening and building and also i enjoy sharing food prep and eating together.
  
  I live in Nelson so there is lots to do and its an easy walk downtown. Nelson is known as an arts center and there is music, dance, art, festivals, coffee shops, hiking, biking, skiing, kayaking, all walking distance from the house. Its a little paradise.
