Descripción
We are a small 6 acre farm and carpentry shop surrounded by the Salmon River in the Shuswap/Okanagan area of beautiful British Columbia, Canada(4.5 hrs to Vancouver). We are in a sunny, fertile valley of farms and hay fields. Thomas is from Switzerland and Maria is from the Okanagan.
We have planted garlic and look forward to harvest mid July. We have 25 fruit trees and a big garden. We have a big house with extended family(mom, brother, kids), 4 dogs, and 3 cats.
We are a friendly group who enjoy having good meals, chats around the campfire and swimming in our beautiful river that surrounds our property. We all speak English except Thomas who is Swiss and speaks fluent German.
Accommodation is a 24ft, 5th wheel trailer with kitchen, power, water, heat, and internet. There is a corner store 2 kms up the road and it's 12 mins by car into the city of Salmon Arm. We look forward to meeting you and having you help us with our 'honey to do' list!

I contacted Maria after having a rough time with another host and she came to pick me up straight away.
Thomas is great too.
Maria and Thomas are thoughtful and caring hosts and are a pleasure to be around.
