Description
Hello, my family has a beautiful log house in Valemount, near Jasper National Park. Basically the house is rented to tourists, but in spring I am looking for help to do some landscaping, help building a log sauna, work in the household, take the dog for a walk and so on. I am 33 years old and look for one or two people who help me with this project.
Certainly it will be an easy going atmosphere, nevertheless I need a reliable worker.
