Descrição
Do you want to be right in the middle of Vancouver Island so you can easily explore on your days off by bus or a car if you have one? I live on a small country estate in Coombs BC. My mom lives on my property as well my niece. I own a boutique in Qualicum Beach and Courtenay I spend the rest of my time caring for my horses, two goats and dogs as well maintaining the property. The tasks for helpers is to help with the animals, walk dogs, help my mom who is elderly, garden, housecleaning, maintain trails, fence staining, lawn mowing ( lots of lawn mowing) and general outdoor help. I cook 100% organic, delicious vegan meals and hope you do to. We do have a giant swim pond for hot summer days. Something to note is all my animals are pets and not for food consumption. We are a Vegan Friendly property and appreciate like minded people :)
This is a very physical workaway and requires good health and reasonable strength but the work days are fair and your time off is honoured. We are positive and friendly here and I do my best to maintain that atmosphere. With that said if someone is very negative with other helpers and complains constantly , drinks or does drugs you will be asked to leave.
* Minimum Stay is 2 weeks.
