  Descrição

  Welcome. I'm an Aussie retiree living in a small bilingual village in the hills of the Eastern Townships of Quebec.
  
  I have a large residential organic garden, with perrenial beds, shrubs and vegetable beds.
  My home is spacious, with lots of room for you to hang out in your free time, when you aren't busy exploring the area..
  
  My village is 1 hr 20 mins from Montreal & 10 minutes from the Vermont border. The village is a popular centre for outdoor activities ( skiing, hiking, biking), with a vibrant tourism scene on weekends, but tranquil during the week.
  
  I can provide you with a private bedroom & bathroom, food, & local information about great hikes and bike rides. I have 2 bikes available for use.

  Oportunidades de intercâmbio cultural e aprendizado

  As well as increasing your knowledge of landscaping & organic gardening, you will have the opportunity to learn about local life in a vibrant bilingual village, founded by the English-speaking Loyalists , & now undergoing a wave of new settlement by urban French-speaking folk. Lots of artists, yoga studios , permaculturalists , organic & traditional farmers, as well as urban escapees.
  
  You will also have the opportunity to do some superb hikes in the mountains & valleys that surround the village. If you have no car, you'll be able to use my bicycles to reach closer destinations .

  Ajuda

  I am seeking help with
  -regular garden chores (perrenial beds, weeding , planting, etc)
  
  - scrubbing outdoor deck floor ( if needed)
  
  - painting a small entry room (only if weather is too bad for outdoor task)
  
  I am seeking a person with at least a basic knowledge of gardening.
  
  Please do not contact me if you like to sleep in, as I'm looking for someone who's able to assist me from roughly 8.30am to 12.30pm.
  
  UPDATE SEPT 2026 . I am no longer seeking a Workawayer for October, as I have just made an agreement with a Workawayer . However, feel free to contact me if you would like to be on a backup list for October in case she changes her plans, or if perhaps I may still need help in November .

  Acomodação

  Private bedroom and bathroom in my home, with lots of communal space.
  
  I will provide food ( dietary preferences to be discussed). I would expect that you prepare your own breakfasts. I prefer to share cooking if possible but not essential.

  Algo mais...

  I enjoy hosting people in my home and sharing laughter and good times. I am independent and have some community obligations, so you will have the opportunity for alone time too.
  
  I treat others with respect and thrive on equal exchanges.
  
  Local transportation is very poor. To get here from Montreal, there's a Limocar bus service to Sortie 74, Autoroute 10, Bromont, 30 mins away from Sutton, where I could pick u up . Carpooling to & from Montreal works well, especially on weekends, so check out FB group Covoiturage Sutton.
