  Descripción

  I am nearing retirement but I say "what is that?....because I keep busy working, visits to my family, watching my grands in hockey. An indigenous event may bring me and you to a drumming session, crafts, dances, sweat lodge on occasion or the local market or event that happen regularly. When not doing this, we will be keeping the house running effectively. Your ability to drive may be helpful!

  Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje

  I am part of an Indigenous community and I would introduce you to native language, culture such as sweats, ceremonies, crafts, community events and dances you would find fascinating! I live in a very beautiful part of the country and we call " Secwepemculw", our people are passionate about our resources and many work hard for the environment, when you come here and I show you our land (tmicw) you will know why.

  Your day would begin in a beautiful setting, I like my morning coffee and often do my work from home office, you may assist in house duties, pet care for my little dog, a cat lives here too! In winter, there may be snow shovelling, in summer gardening, beach time. It is important to keep maintenance around the house but I would really like to construct a dwelling in my back yard to house visitors, much like a year round camping spot, wood heated...need help with that. I have a shed that is wood heated, It needs to be insulated. I want to have garden boxes built and fruit trees planted in spring. My work often takes me on the road, so I need a pet/house sitter. Weekends take me to the hockey arena, where I watch my grands play, you can come too if you want. Music is important to me, I am busy with the Salmon Arm Roots and blue music festival, you could volunteer and be a part of this also.

  Algo más...

  I live outside of the city, there is a bus stop in front of my house, you can take to go to town and back. The town has a lot to offer, great places to walk, many trails, beaches, parks, live theatre and library. There are many ski hills in the area and a cross country skiing in close vicinity. I find my self a busy person and I don't do well with people who are really sedate. I often join friends on "wing nite" at the local pub or Karaoke. Yet, at times quiet evening watching a movie, or playing board games. I have my 15 year old granddaughter who visits occasionally, so that may feel bit disruptive if you are not into kids.
