Detalhes
Descrição
My husband 65 who is a retired helicopter pilot and I, 60 years old live on 2 acres of land in Terrace which is in northern British Columbia. I love paddling kayaks, hiking,
and biking. We both enjoy skiing, both downhill and cross country and we have snow mobiles and quads for exploring our beautiful neighborhood. I love cooking, especially with local ingredients and produce from my garden. I have hosted volunteers for several years now and really love meeting people from all over the world. Since our 2 sons have grown up and moved out, we have a spare bedroom available
Please note that we can only take last minute volunteers at this time

Acomodação
In my house I have a spare bedroom, shared bathroom with hottub. I make dinner everynight and breakfast most mornings. If you like lunch, there is usually something in the fridge to eat. We do eat meat but for vegetarians we can figure it out together. I will provide food.
Algo mais...
I do have a spare bike to use for transportation as well there is bus service from my house. Most of the time though, I hope that we can do fun activites together and I will drive us in my car to our destination. We live about 5 minutes drive or 20 minute bike ride from town where there are stores, restaurants, pubs etc. I also have 3 kayaks to explore the local waterways with. There are many hiking trails close by and if you like photography the opportunities to take pictures are endless.
I do want to point our that our location is really far north of Vancouver so the logistics of getting here may be a complication for you. I don't want to put anyone off but simply make you aware of where Terrace is.

Cheryl always let me choose between several tasks and let me decide when I do them. Work was never hard, but always enjoyable, because she never demanded too much. I was able to structure my day the way I wanted to, which I really appreciated.
