Description
I have recovered from my last knee replacement after having had 3other replacements. I need a person that can help with dirt digging, weeding and keeping up the yard. I very much enjoy learning about other cultures. Cooking ,sewing and dance are a huge part of my life. I often have my Eastern European music playing especially Roma,Greek, Balkan etc. music. I have a very warped sense of humor and am often told I am so open... There have been many work awayers here... I look forward to this time of year.. I want a reliable good worker.

Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre
I have had work away guests for many years now. I like to listen , teach , be spontaneous and connect you to Victoria's beauty. Any one that loves, music, arts, dance or making things would love it here. I have wonderful walking adventures close by . I can teach sewing, cooking , ethnic dance, gardening etc.. Cooking is a pleasure for me and many work awayers seem to like to watch.

Aide
I require assistance in watering garden, weeding , planting, technology, fixing things like blinds and tightening taps,painting... There are always little fix ups to do around here.

Hébergement
You would have an art/sewing studio to stay in or a single bed bedroom... (birds sing outside a lot ) It is full of lovely textiles and has a cozy creative atmosphere. Music is a passion for me. I love rock, jazz and all Eastern European and Middle Eastern music... IF you are a skilled musician and want to practice here ...I would love it...!!!!

Autres infos...
down town and the local parks have free and amazing entertainment ... Victoria is known as the garden city. It is easy to get around.... a trip can be taken to the local gulf islands... Salt Spring had sheep on the hillsides and sweet little churches tucked away... then Hornby is. has the most amazing rock structure and beach where it is shallow for a long distance... very magical. Victoria seems to attract the artistic heart.... many talented people live here.
There are also many outdoor markets that sell organic or locally made cheeses , hand made items etc.
There are two buses that make it easy to get to town in 10-15 min. You can get a day pass for $5. that will allow bus rides all over the city and out a ways...
