  Description

  Hello,
  Welcome to our profile 🙂
  
  Dates available: September 20th - October 10th - the weather is still good - come and enjoy the sea and the hiking ✨
  We are thinking of selling our home and would like help with cleaning and preparing the house for a move. The perfect place to use your Marie Kondo skills!
  
  ~~~~~~~~~
  We are a lively couple with our dog Agate.
  Mickaël is from Reunion Island and I’m a city girl from Montreal who fell in love with the Gaspésie area. The nature, the sea, the relaxed vibe all enticed me to buy a home here.
  We love dancing, acro-yoga and hiking. We enjoy low-key fun with close friends. Since buying a home, we’re traveling a little less so what better way to bring the world to us than have travellers stay in our home. Our century home has lots of character, space and charm but needs some love!
  
  You will be staying in your own basement apartment, easy access to the ‘center’ with beach, coffee shop, good vegetarian food and bicycles at your disposal to explore.
  Well-being is important to us.
  We usually sleep early, eat well, are in a good mood and don’t do any drugs/smoke <3
  We are looking for people with similar life habits.
  
  We live in a very lively area in the summer.
  Many yoga classes, water sports activities and hikes.
  
  We would like to attract people who are focused, fun, kind and respectful.
  Come enjoy fresh air, good vibes, the sea and the perfect balance between calm and lieveliness.
  
  We have a large dog, so liking dogs is a must.
  Currently, we would like help with general maintenance ex: gardening out vegetable and herb garden, painting, landscaping, cleaning out the shed, gardening, walking or watching the dog when I work(occasional).
  
  We prioritize couples but will consider one person if it’s the right fit.
  
  We look forward to meeting you :)
  
  Roxane, Mickaël and Agate.
  
  Nous sommes francophones à la base :)
