We are no smokers, lifelong adventurers, we love to bbq and the pool will be ready to swim soon! We have internet and cable, we have guitars and would love it if you play. Sadly we do not have pets at this time. We are seniors with adult children who are well launched . We travel often to Vancouver, Victoria, Quesnel, Clearwater, Canmore, Niagara Falls and New York. We are seniors who really need some strong, positive, fun loving help.
You will have your own private room with a comfortable double bed. I posted in search of a single volunteer but a couple will be considered. My daughter who used to liv nearby, knows the best places to take photos if you are interested in hikes or day trips. .. There is internet that is available. The city bus stops just across the road and if you are travelling with your own vehicle, parking is available on the street in front of my home. Please let us know how you are travelling and how long you hope to stay. I welcome guests for 1 -3 weeks at this time but may extend the time depending on the current projects.. I look forward to meeting interesting people from all around this wonderful world!
We are vaccinated and boosted and would like to be assured that you are as well due to our ages and health concerns.
My home is on the city bus route so you can get out and explore the semi-arid desert like landscapes of the Interior of BC on your own. Swimming, in the back yard pool from June through September, Hiking, Biking, Tennis and The Kamloops Bike Ranch, just across the road so if you have a mountain bike you will love staying here. Our town has a Long boarding park, Mountain bike trails, A short hike from downtown to Peterson Creek waterfall, Kenna Cartwright hiking park or floating down the river in summer as well as free concerts in Riverside Park every night in July and August. The BC Wildlife Park is a rehab center for animals that is on the city bus route if you want to familiarize yourself with animals from Grizzly bears to Elk or Eagles and many more. Canada Day offers an amazing multi cultural celebration at Riverside Park on July 1st. There is a wild flower festival at Sun Peaks in summer and the first weekend in August, the PowWow is not to be missed! Also in August check out Hot Night in the City if you are interested in the Rotary Ribfest cook-off or seeing hundreds of vintage/muscle cars in the blocked off main streets of Kamloops.
