    We are a family of four with two wonderful boys ages 10 and 5.

    We live in the beautiful kootenay mountain region, just outside of the picturesque town of Nelson BC. We are surrounded by green mountains and minutes from the large and clear waters of kootenay lake.

    We love cooking healthy and yummy food!

    We can offer an opportunity to learn about gardening, cooking and being with children. I am a Massage Therapist and my husband Gabriel is a Counsellor and Life Coach.
