Description
My husband myself and our 18 year old son live on beautiful Mayne Island BC
We are friendly and hospitable and look forward to learning from, and sharing knowledge and our love interest Gulf Islands with a workawayer.
Colin works from home and spends his downtime walking and biking around our beautiful island.
I ( Anne-Maree) love anything creative, particular creating art and working with wood and doing carpentry!
Elijah goes to school on Salt Spring Island by water taxi which is the highlight of his day. When he’s home he loves watching the ferries come and go and will talk at length about the various BC ferries! In summer he loves swimming at the various beautiful beaches. He’s a very sweet young man with autism and is well known on the island as he’s so friendly!
An ideal Workawayer will spend some time with helping us tidy and organize household supplies etc and has some experience with neurodivergent kids. You will spend time with Elijah working on life skills and just enjoying time together He loves music, fitness and yoga!
