Description
We have a house in the city and we have a cottage off grid (an hour away) where we love to spend our time! We enjoy swimming, going on boat rides, reading, going on hikes, and campfires! We are a retired couple and we have a very well behaved Aussiedoodle named Mocha. He also loves to go to our cottage! We would love to experience living with someone from another country and exchange cultures! We speak French and English and would love to learn Spanish! Our daughter is back home for a few months, she is 23 years old and would love to keep practicing her Spanish!

Accommodation
You would have your own room! If we're at the cottage, it is a small “guesthouse” beside the cottage that we usually use for our guests. There is a double bed, a table, a drawer and everything needed for your stay. If we're at the house, you will have your own room with a queen bed and a patio door to the balcony.

On your time off we could show you around our town and let you explore the beautiful sceneries and hikes!
