  Description

  I've been a Workawayer for a few years and now have a project I need help with. I'm building a house that will be a home for an intentional community. It's a beautiful location a half an hour outside Ottawa on a small pristine lake. It's near the community of Wakefield which has a high concentration of artists and nature lovers.
  
  I have been living here since April 2024 and I am absolutely love it. The lake is s great place to swim or just sit and enjoy the natural surroundings. I am warm hearted and kind and hope you are too. I love deep talks about life. There is a large space to dance if that interests you.
  
  We also have access to many hiking trails in the Gatineau Park and 42 acres of trails in our neighborhood.

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  Daniel is from English Canada. I am involved in biodanza, mediation and spending time in nature. I love reading, sharing ideas and cooking. I take time each morning writing and engaging in mindfulness.
  
  I would love to meet people from across the world, hear what life has taught you and what makes your life interesting. I find people and cultures fascinating.
