Description
Hello. We are a family of 3, with 3 small doggies living on 5 acres on the Sunshine Coast. We love the outdoors. We live close to the water and near many hiking trails. We're in Sechelt and 8 minutes drive from the centre of town.
We hope to meet wonderful guests from all over the world. While here, we would appreciate some help with yard work and maintenance around the property. Some doggie-sitting/house-sitting might be needed if I have to be out for a length of time.
We love our doggies (2x 8lb pups (Morkie and Chihuahua and a 20 lb terrier mix) and hope you would love them too!
We would prefer non-smokers; preference would be for a couple (but open to the right single person too). You will have flexible schedule; I'm honestly not the greatest cook so anyone who can be independent and make their own meals most days would be great; We can talk groceries :-)
We have a paddleboard you could use 5 mins walk down the hill to the beach;
We have a large custom built modern house ; You will have a private bedroom and access to your own bathroom; If you love to cook, our beautiful large kitchen is available for your use. We also have a little modern cabin we rent as a bnb. ask us for our facebook site

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
The Sunshine Coast is beautiful; So many outdoor activities like hiking trails, water access, etc; It is also a smaller rural community and you would be welcomed by friendly small town residents; a weekly farm market on saturdays; and many festivals going on in the summer.
Help
mostly yard (lawn and weeding and watering plants and trees) and property maintenance help; some minor work in and around the house; some pet/house sitting

English: FluentThis host offers a language exchange
I speak a little (very little) French and Spanish and would love to improve. I also am interested in learning other languages.
Accommodation
Private bedroom and own bathroom; access to a beautiful, large kitchen; modern house with a view of the ocean and mountains.
I plan to give workaways stipend for groceries for meals and share meals some days.
What else ...
if you love the outdoors, here is where you want to be; we are also only 40 minutes away by ferry to larger Vancouver; it's a great day trip if you want to get away to the bigger city atmosphere.
