I am a Mindfulness instructor and English Teacher focusing on living a simpler life. I have two grown daughters and many connections with different communities in Victoria. I enjoy hosting dinners and having friends visit.
In my free time I love to read and write. I enjoy walking, cycling, hiking and kayaking with the ocean close by. I am very active in the outdoors and enjoy gardening, cooking and travelling.
Hoping to make my backyard/garden a sanctuary.
At the moment I can only host female guests or couples. Thank you.

We are a multicultural family with lots of experience traveling the world. We speak English and Portuguese fluently. Besides a daily meditation practice, I do yoga at least three times a week. Also, I like to go hiking, walking and cycling, often with friends and neighbours. In the summer I also do some kayaking. I have two exta bikes for guests to explore the area and travel around with ease. I love to cook and I am also open to trying new dishes from around the world. I have a tiny yoga/meditation studio in my backyard and a friendly dog who loves company.
I welcome help in the garden and with house organizing, painting and cleaning. I also appreciate people who have some experience and can work independently. At the moment I can use help with decluttering and gardening. We created a meditation labyrinth in the front yard and maintenance is ongoing. Simplifying is the main goal at the moment, so some skills in organizing would be a great asset.

Our home is located on the traditional territories of the Lkwungen and W̱SÁNEĆ peoples. We acknowledge their welcome and graciousness to our family to live here. We honour this land and the ancestors who cared for it. Andersen Hill is close by and was used for harvesting Camas. It offers a beautiful view of the Salish sea and the Olympic Mountains. We are committed to a path of path of truth and reconciliation.
Oak Bay is one of the safest neighbourhoods in Canada. Our street is quiet and neighbors are friendly. Walking around Oak Bay can be quite magical and I am grateful to live in such a special place. Down town Victoria is only a 15 minute bike ride away. Our family welcomes guests to be part of our lives and exchange stories and experiences. We have been hosting workaway guests since 2013 and have had a wonderful experience, making friends from all over the world. Please, no smokers only. Thanks!
