    Description

    Create lasting memories in a home-away-from-home with us.

    We are a fun, loving, and incredibly busy family. Forming relationships with workaways has been a rewarding and important part of our lives for many years. The help, care, and friendship of work aways over the years has allow us to complete projects, and keep up with the incredible property we get to live on and take care for.

    A little about Tracy and Maurice
    We love music, community, movies, nature, and handing out with family and friends. We are also both passionate about personal growth, and creating experiences that help people live and experience awesomeness.

    We have three daughters, Rylee (20, who is moved out); Fia (17) recently graduated), and Araya (14). Also part of our family is our 3 cats (Lucy, Helmet, and Moo); and a few other pets!

    Here you will enjoy the 80-acres that we call our playground of walking trails, bush, camping spots, and ponds. The land is set up beautifully, with a swimming pond, raised gardens, trails, and a full-out festival and campground site! We also have a hot tub that we enjoy regularly.

    We call our property the experience farm because we create great experiences here, which you would be a part of.

    We, (Maurice and Tracy), are working professionals who primarily work from the home offices. Maurice is a leadership coach and entrepreneur specializing in helping professionals create inspiring visions, make clear decisions, and live fully. He is always creating or thinking about something, he loves ideas, and he's secretly an introvert that enjoys and needs time alone to re-fuel his tank. Tracy is a busy professional who leads the product strategy for an emerging tech company that leverages AI to transform the legal space. She is a tech nerd, who is fun, fiery, independent, and there isn't much she can't do. She is a certified coach, that loves personal development and puppies.

    We are social with many visitors, especially in the spring, summer, and fall. We love music and socializing. We've had many work-away experiences and nannies in the past and had friends live with us for extended periods, so this isn't a new concept.

    Here you'll enjoy an extended family, home away from home feel. Maurice's parents are close enough to visit and often become work-away Grandma and Grandpa's. Our extended community of friends welcomes you with open arms and good times, with many relationships being formed in the process.

    We offer an engaging experience of enjoying the beauty of the land and being a part of a connected community! We take an inclusive approach to family and warmly welcome guests. We also appreciate the need for you to have and enjoy some privacy, just as we need ours at times.

    We can provide access to a vehicle, and our arrangement would include room and board.

    Mostly a non-smoking environment; smoking is not allowed in the house or vehicles.

    We do drink socially; we enjoy life to its fullest.

    We look forward to welcoming you.

    Canada is an abundant and diverse place to experience. Manitoba is part of the prairies known for its vast flat landscape, rivers and lakes, and beautiful summers. Manitoba winters typically see lots of snow, and you would experience the cold temperatures of a real Canadian winter (this is not for everyone).

    In a cultural exchange with our family, you would experience the life and lifestyle of a working family that believes in living life to its fullest. We are surrounded by a strong community of friends that are loving, fun, and constantly supporting each other.

    Our family is immersed in Manitoba's vibrant arts and music scene, so your experience would include this. We love music, we host house concerts, festivals, and family events that promote community and connection, and you would be a part of this.

    We are also students of lifelong learning; as life and business coaches, your experience would have the opportunity to hear our story and lean on us with any questions you'd like to explore about life and business.

    You'll also get to experience the world through the eyes of our children. The kids are quite independent.

    We would love extra help to maintain the house and land, and keep things running smoothly. Depending on the season this may include: maintaining the gardens, cutting wood, helping with general household chores and maintenance, small improvement projects like painting and staining, and general contribution to creating great experiences. Ideally, you have a valid drivers license.

    If you had an interest in it, you may have the opportunity to get involved with some of our projects as they are a major part of our life, where you would contribute to creating great experiences for others.

    We are life long learners and would be happy to share our life experiences with anyone that may benefit from it.

    In the spring/summer/fall, we have many options. Typically work-aways have chosen to stay in the beach house. The beach house is a comfortable and cute building, separate from the house located by the gardens. It provides a private space that is perfect for 1 person or a couple.

    The other option is a motorhome, and/or if you like more of an outdoor experience, we have some unique options like high-quality tents where a clamping (Camping + Glamour) experience can be created.

    Food is included in your experience, assuming this is your choice. We do our best to be health conscious; and we welcome your influence. The kids enjoy baking; we are open to a variety of foods.

    We'd discuss food responsibilities together and make a plan that makes sense for everyone.

    Winnipeg is the nearest large city, only 45 minutes away, with many attractions, including a world-class zoo that features a polar bear habitat. . The arts and culture scene and the community of people are the other highlights we feel are most worthy to mention. Many 'beach-towns' are within a 30-minute drive, including Winnipeg Beach, Matlock, Gimli, and Grand Beach. We look forward to connecting!

    Possibilité d’accueillir les digital nomads

    We've had a lifestyle that allows us to work from home (or anywhere) for over 10-years now and would love to see others enjoy the same. For internet, we recently got onto StarLink and expect that it will accommodate strong internet connections for many people at once. We have a full separate office that is outside of the house, with room for 1-2 people to set up. You also have the ability to plug in anywhere you really desire.

    We have tons of space for anyone with a motorhome or campervan with a water hook up and power. We've had people stay with us for months like this; we've even created a tiny yard so they feel like neighbors.

    We love pets. We would want to have a discussion to make sure they integrate with our pets well. We currently have 3 cats, and some reptiles.
