Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre
We live in such an amazing location surrounded by the best that Canadian nature has to offer. The ocean, mountains, rivers, waterfalls, trails all within a short distance or even walking distance. There are places we can show you that are not on the maps! You’d never know unless we showed it to you. Our son enjoys the study of multiple languages and Locksmithing. Our daughter recently graduated as a Health Care Aid. I work with a family locksmith business out of our home. We have enjoyed multiple students from various countries which makes for so many interesting stories around the dinner table. I hope you like salmon as we are always stocked up with it.

Hébergement
We have guest rooms with a shared bathroom with our son or daughter, depending on workaway’s gender. Large recreation room with ping pong🏓 , fooseball ⚽️, and large TV area, and even space for a volleyball court in our back yard. Big kitchen so we can all cook together, and table seats lots too.

We shop for the whole household. Taking turns helping with cooking and cleaning is important. Working alongside another family member for help if needed. Breakfast and lunch is usual for everyone to get their own as needed when needed. Dinner is bigger and we sit as a family to talk about the day, clean up and play a table game together. Usually around 6pm
