    We are an active, outdoor family living amongst the rainforest of Squamish BC. Our two girls are 6 and 9 years old.
    We are fortunate to have sweeping mountain views from our home.
    My wife is Swiss German.
    It is an exciting opportunity to travel to other places without having to leave our home. Languages, culture, food are all better when shared
