Description
We are a Sunshine Coast BC family that loves the outdoors. We hike and get outside whenever we can. We live in Davis Bay, a beautiful beach community on the Sunshine Coast. Your accommodations would be a room to yourself and a bathroom. We work remotely from 9-3ish so we will be needing the space from 9 onwards with breaks in the day. We also value privacy so the space would be yours on the weekends.
You guessed it, we are looking for help to run our ship. For a comfortable space, good company, and healthy food, we will expect an organized person that notices where they can help, folding laundry here, making dinner there, and creating the space for date nights between my partner and I whenever we can.
If you are a young person that is safe with kids, organized, like to cook, and have a generous spirit, we would be happy to hear from you.
Currently, we are looking for someone to help out with family work, meal prep, cooking and cleaning, and carpentry skills would be AMAZING!
We look forward to hearing from you,
Jessy and Family

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Travellers can expect to have many hours to discover the Sunshine Coast, and Vancouver by transit is 2 hours away. One can take in the local ski mountains, hike, and mountain bike. Water sports enthusiasts may canoe or kayak on multiple clean waterways, or island hop to the next BC visit. Gardening draws in many farmer-types and Master Gardeners, as you can play in my garden, or join us on one of our weekend outings. The Sunshine Coast has many beautiful beaches.
Welcome - you will enjoy your stay!

Help
Currently, we are looking for someone to come and stay to help with building a sauna and help in the garden. We live growing our own food and are working and being sustainable. Any solar electrical skills and carpentry skills would be ideal! Any help with household operations such as cleaning, and cooking would be AMAZING, childcare occasionally, and hanging out with our sweet dog.
We will need help with painting, low VOC paint.
We also love to practice and hear Spanish so if you are a Spanish speaker, with the qualities mentioned, please get in touch.

Accommodation
A bedroom/office with your own bathroom on the main floor of the house. You will need to be flexible with being up early as your room is also Brian's office to offer online counseling.
What else ...
There are so many things to do on the Sunshine Coast and with Vancouver so close, and I know a lot of the free or low cost things to do in a day or over night visit. If you like the outdoors, the mountains, the beach, being healthy, and coffee, and close proximity to Islands, you've come to the right place.
