Description
We take that good people always find a way to meet as an universal rule...
Looking for help with taking care of the yard and small house tasks
Mai and June
and from mid-august-to mid-october
ideal stay is 2-3 weeks).
We are looking for one or two people that are outgoing, have a positive energy, and are outdoor enthousiasts (hiking, cycling, camping). We offer a cultural exchange in a family.
We are a busy-smiling french canadian family with too much projects.Our tribe (3 boys and two parents):
-Théo: 13 years old (love drawing, nature, building small wood structure and making drama)
-Éloi: 15 years old (love taking photos, playing piano, building crazy things with lego and skiing)
-Manu: 17 years old (love to jump in ski and mountain biking) he now leave on his own for college
-Stéphanie: 46 years old, teaching at university, love to travel, mountain hike, mushroom picking, upcycling things, building trails
-Charles: 49 years old, electric engineer, own a oceonagraphic company, like to bbq, hunt, and hike.
We all speak french (native) and english, except for Théo who speaks french and a bit of english. If you don't speak french it's not a problem.... lucky you, you won't understand the teenagers arguing (they do a lot!). You don't have to nanny the teenagers they can take care of themselves, but you definitively need to understand the dynamic of leaving with a young tribe.
We live in the village of Bic, Rimouski (we live 4 km away from the village) in a big modern house, the house has a lot of space and cooking equipments with good wifi
We are an open minded family that likes to work, meet people and of course eat good food along with a glass of wine:) Both of us travelled a lot and we believe that we all can always learn from each other.
If you feel you can be a good fit write to us, we will arrange a Whatsapp Call to chat, so you can ask us questions, and us too.
