Description
I am a retired mother with my family visiting often. My children have all started work off this island. I currently need some of renovation type tasks and I want to continue as much of my gardening as possible and need help there too. My home is big and there are many daily chores that I need help with.

Any helpers with energy and some experience in construction, farming, gardening, cooking, and general cleaning would be the ideal helper for me at this time. If so, maybe you would like to join me on Salt Spring Island. This island is easy to travel to as we have 3 ferries providing us regular services. All tourists find their experience on this very interesting island to be worth the travel and I live near the center of this island.

I have a variety of small construction projects underway and a lot of yard maintenance on 4 acre of gardens. As expected, each season brings on different type of work and it seems that results in some extra tasks. If you are easy-going and able to help efficiently in a somewhat fast-paced environment, I would be pleased to speak to you about how you can get the best experience possible here. All MEALS are of course included and you will enjoy your private spaces in my home..

Please don't ask to stay here while working for pay at another location. I do expect at least 5 hours per day and 5 days a week. You can choose wherever days you would like to rest and explore this island. I will prepare all the meals and provide you with a menu choice at least the day before. I do not need any help in the kitchen and would prefer that I prepare most of the meals.

If things work out well I would like to host for no less than 2 weeks. Should you have any questions about your stay here or how to get here, please contact me.

Thanks.

I will make sure that you get to see and experience as much of our island as possible and help you explore more of Canada's west coast if that is what you want to do on your days off. Our island has a reliable public transit system and there are many public places for you to meet others your age as well as join in on cultural and social events.

It would be ideal if you were a person with considerable energy and experience in any of the following: light renovating, farming, gardening, cooking, and general cleaning? If so, maybe you would like to join me on beautiful Salt Spring Island to help out and to experience life on a very interesting part of this unique island. There are a variety of small repair/DIY projects underway, as well as watering and weeding my 5 acre of gardens and flowers. I could also use some extra help with general housekeeping. If you are easy-going and able to help out in a somewhat busy environment, pIease consider coming to my home in a very quiet and superbly placed at a higher elevation where there are great sea and mountain views.

Should you have any questions about your stay here or how to get here, please contact me.

Thanks,
Irina
