Description
We live close to many trails, bus routes and walking distance to downtown Langford. I am Pescatarian though leaning towards vegetarian.
Home to 5 fabulous fur kids “frenchies”, and the bosses our cats Tucker and Nyx. I’m a semi retired healthcare professional who enjoys the small joys in life. Love nature, gardening, home improvement and helping on my friend’s farm.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Diversity is welcome in my home. I wish to learn from other cultures and share my Canadian/ English one. Though not religious I believe in spiritual peace through nature and being the best one can be.
Help
I am downsizing my cluttered home and need help. Mainly with organization and reselling, listing items for auction and other public platforms as well as donation.
Someone who is highly organized and proficient with these tasks. Who is able to take on tasks with calm kindness.
Spring cleaning.
I’d like help with the yard, building garden boxes, simple shelters and maintenance. Laying an extension to a small brick patio.
Replacing a deck. Already built. Need to be moved.
Experience with home repairs, electrical, carpentry would be an asset. I love to learn and am happy to teach new skills as well as learn together. Thank you. You tube. 😉
Dog walking and some animal care.
You would be easy going, happy, positive, an innovator. Some one who loves to learn and share knowledge. Handy, helpful. Organized is needed. Must love animals. Not adverse to frenchie snores.
We would be working together or alone depending on the project.
I’m not expecting one person to do everything. There are many projects on my list. I like to tackle a project with a sense of fun, enthusiasm and the joy of achievement.
Hours expected 5 hours a day , 5 days a week. These hours are flexible unless it’s a group project. This would be discussed in advance with all participating and time agreed upon.

Accommodation
This is a three bedroom. Sxs duplex. There is one bedroom available with a queen size bed or single beds. Suitable for one or two. Downstairs there is a two piece bathroom, upstairs a 4 piece bathroom with shower/ bath. We would share the main living areas, kitchen and outdoor space.
Meals … I hope to share evening meal prep and would love to taste food from different cultures. Though if you don’t cook it could be a fun learning experience. I’m happy to share the kitchen. I do like to cook when others are enjoying it as well. My kitchen is usually well stocked with vegetarian options. Special diets would need to be managed by the individual.
What else ...
Buses are available within a 3 min. Walk. Electric bikes and scooters a five min. Walk away. We are 15 mins from Victoria by car. I’m happy to explore the sights, local areas, hikes etc.
I’m a pretty quiet, easy going person, I find myself lacking in company and love spending time talking with my farm friends workaway helpers. My life generally focus’ around animals and nature. Helping friends with their projects.
On occasion we have frenchie babes. This is a fun and busy 8 plus weeks.
Though not a big tv watcher , I do love audiobooks.

Be kind to animals
Although I eat pescatarian/vegetarian my furkids are on a raw or home cooked meat diet.
