  Description

  Hello everyone, we are a bilingual (French and English) family (me Marco, my spouse Rebecca and our small daughter Dina).
  
  I, Marco, use to own a vintage furniture shop in the Mile-End in Montreal. It got closed down by the owner of the building last year, so I moved all of my stuff to a new location to start a community project by the water in the country. I would like to developp a non profit organisation wich involves vintage furniture, vintage music studio with small webcasted concerts (tiny desk style) and maybe a café.
  
  My spouse, Rebecca, loves cooking and will feed us very well. She’s also the one who’s good at keeping us on track.
  
  We have hosted about 30 volunteers in the past and we love meeting new people, different cultures, keeping busy and exchanging on various topics.

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  If you come to our cottage, you will be surounded with trees. The studio space is by a big river. There is also a river and a lake right next to our cottage (2 minute walk). You’ll be able to learn about quebec’s culture and eat traditionnal quebecois meals. We can also teach you french or english. And I think we are a great stepping stone to Montreal because we have lots of connections. If you’re musicaly inclined, there’s many vintage instruments to play.

  Aide

  community project:
  We are currently looking for a couple or two friends who will help us setting up the scenery and finishing up the renovations. Also, our daughter will not go to daycamp this summer, so someone who is good with kids would be nice. If you're alone or don't think you have the skills but are interested in our organisation concept, please contact us and we will try our best to welcome you into our journey.
  
  I’m looking for help for the whole summer season (from april to september) to help me sort thru my things, post online, help me finish building an extension, plug in my audio gear and make this new space the best it can be with the ressources we have.
