  We are really excited for this opportunity for cultural Exchange. We have traveled quite extensively and taken cooking classes in many different countries and look forward to sharing our experiences. We love meeting new people from new cultures and look forward to sharing our own.
  
  I have a little experience in Spanish and French and consider myself a beginner with both languages.

  Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje

  Vancouver Island is one of the best places in the world for hiking, camping, kayaking, fishing and outdoor activities in general. I would have to say to anyone in the world, experiencing the Pacific Northwest on our island and engaging in outdoors activities would be a fantastic cultural experience.
  
  We are both musicians and play together in some bands and individually in other projects. If someone is staying with us that has musical ability, they could join us in some rehearsals at some of the bands or we could just all find something to play together. If a person has less musical ability, of course they would still be welcome to come along to audit rehearsals.
  
  Kathryn plays in one group in particular that regularly features music written by women composers of modern Canadian classical music.

  I've always loved learning languages and in the past have studied Latin, German, Esperanto, Spanish and French. Spanish and French are the only two languages I consider myself to be at beginner level these days.

  Alojamiento

  We offer an apartment/suite for the visitors/workawayers to stay. All photos in this profile are of the separate apartment/suite for the visiting workawayer(s). It is self-contained and has it's own separate entrance and so, is separate from our house. It is downstairs from the main floor where we live.
  
  We would be sharing meals in our house upstairs, although the apartment has it's own kitchen if the visitor would prefer to make any of their own meals. The apartment has a laundry for the guest's use and also has it's own deck with ocean/city views.

  Algo más...

  Our home location is surrounded by hiking trails and there are biking trails nearby. We also have access to ocean kayaking if a person has had appropriate training. There is also a small lake with a beach about 10 minutes walk from the house.
  
  Victoria BC is the capital of the province of BC and is a fantastic tourism/cultural destination attracting multiple cruise ships daily. It also has amazing history. Some highlights are ; beautiful inner harbor, provincial capital buildings and museums, the oldest Chinatown in Canada.
  
  Downtown is approximately 30-45 minutes away by bus, 25 minutes by car, 1 hour by bicycle. Although there is a bus stop 50 meters from the house, we are happy to drive our guests to the bus station (approximately 5 minute drive) which allows a quicker transit to downtown. We are also happy to drive guests to local sights when time/schedule permits.
  
  We are happy to pick up and drop off our visitors/workawayers at the airport, ferry or downtown bus locations on their arrival and departure.

  Espacio para aparcar autocaravanas

  We have our own VW Westfalia and our driveway is certainly capable of holding a campervan or small motorhome. Trailers would not work however due to the driveway geometry.
