Description
We have a house which is 60 minutes from St. John's in Cavert on the Southern Shore and adjacent to the wonderful East Coast Trail in Newfoundland. During your cultural experience in Calvert you can watch the sunset and walk the East Coast Trail as well as swim in nearby ponds and take part in community activities. We also have a have a small organic garden in St. Philips but this year we will be most active out of Calvert. We have a labrador retreiver, Nova, who is very friendly.
You can help with house work, cooking, planning activities and sharing time with family in the evening and during the day. There may be house building, painting, computer work, cleaning, cleaning whale bones, kitchen, cooking, splitting wood, cod fishing and gardening for food. This opportunity allows for cultural and language exchange.
Hike the great Newfoundland East Coast Trail, bike, swim in nearby ponds, snorkel in the ocean in Caplin Bay and share in other outdoor activities.
Mostly this year we need help in Calvert with our family members activities. We do run a non profit whale rescue service for fishers. and we need help with understanding websites, internet, computers and that kind of indoor stuff. Ability to work on the water can be an asset, ability to get along with people under stressful situations an asset.

Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre
We share our joy of living in Newfoundland and invite you to be active in our lovely province. Workaways learn about the cultural life on an island that is lightly populated, but has a big city with many events. There is great Newfoundland music, art, and of course the beautiful ocean and hiking areas. We speak mostly English and are willing to learn some of your language and culture. For us we will teach you Newfoundland cooking (cod, moosegetti, and veggies and chicken from our small natural garden). We are excited that you are interested and we are interested to have you share your culture and life with us.
