Help around my homestead, looking for someone who loves nature and wilderness in Canada

  Description

  Not many people ever going to get a chance to be out where we live. Our place is only reachable by boat or fly-in. It is about 40km from the nearest road. Located on a 120km long lake at the border to the Yukon territory. If you ever watched a movie about trappers in northern Canada or Alaska, you get a chance to know how really feels to be out here. I have been doing this for more the two decades. I have problems with my right shoulder so I'm looking for help this summer. Between beginning of july and end of September for a minimum of 4 weeks. My place is only reachable by boat or plane so it is quite expensive to get you to my place hence the minimum of 4 weeks.
  We probably would do tasks in the garden possibly rebuild the greenhouse and fixing cabin,sauna.
  (I will go into detail when we connect).
  Food would be based on what I hunt hunting and fishing. Lots of fish in the summer.
  I think I would be hard if you are strict vegetarians besides you would diside that you eat fish.
  After the day is done there are many thinks from going fishing, kayaking, hiking, camping, having great food all locally sourced.
  I enjoy showing you around our gorgeous area.
  There is a book about the story how we got out there written by my ex-partner, it is called "Ein Blockhouse in der Einsamkeit". Sorry, only in German
  If you interested give me a shout and I can give you more of an idea 💡
