  Description

  We live 20 minutes by car outside of St. John's Newfoundland. During your cultural experience in St. Philip's you can watch the sunset and walk down to Conception Bay as well as swim in nearby ponds. We have a small organic garden, a great cat (Sandy). We have three children who have moved out to Montreal and elsewhere.
  
  You can help in the house, painting, computer work, cleaning, cleaning whale bones, kitchen, cooking, splitting wood, 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 at Beachy Cove Beach and share in other outdoor activities.
  
  
  
  We 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.
