  Descripción

  Hi,
  
  I’m Carolyn .
  
  I was born in England but grew up in Guyana, South America . I’m 65 with the energy of a 40 year old . I’m a world adventure traveler who is passionate about street food (eating not cooking, that is). Travelling to me is immersing myself into the culture of the country I’m
  visiting. If you are looking for me I am usually in the bus heading in the opposite direction of the tourists.
  
  After travelling the world, I decided that Salt Spring Island is the best place to call home. Here, my 26 year old son, our rescue puppy Leo, and I share a home. I also run a busy business that keeps me on my toes most of the time.
  
  With winter approaching , we enjoy cozy indoor time however we do head off island to enjoy a busier town/city occasionally.
  
  Salt Spring Island is located in British Columbia, in the Gulf Islands archipelago between Vancouver Island and the mainland of British Columbia. It is renowned as a top travel destination, celebrated for its natural beauty, vibrant arts and music in scene, artisanal products and outdoor activities like hiking and kayaking. With a population of 12,000, it offers a peaceful retreat featuring local markets, wineries, cideries, breweries, and wellness retreats.
  
  It is the perfect destination for those who are looking to escape the hustle and bustle of the big city. However if you ever need to pick up the pace we have three ferry options available off the island.
  
  We look forward to welcoming you.

  Ayuda

  I am looking for help in getting an overgrown garden back to life and also help within the house. Part of the home has also been used for storage which I would like to change. There are lots of boxes to repack, tag and take off to storage.
  
  It’s an older home that needs some love and attention
