  Oportunidades de intercâmbio cultural e aprendizado

  Come and spend time on a small gulf island off the coast of British Columbia. A close knit community of like minded folks who are passionate about the environment and community. A unique experience to live in a safe, quiet, rural community with views of both the ocean and the mountains. We spend lots of time with friends at the beach, on our paddle boards, attending dances, shows, special events and potlucks. Our workaways will be included as much as they would like to be.

  Our gulf island is small (summer population approx. 1100), there are many opportunities to be in nature, with two lakes and numerous beaches within easy access. We can provide bikes and some transportation if necessary. You need to take a ferry to access Vancouver Island and then it is a 20 minute drive to the closest urban area.
