  Descrição

  We're a couple in our late 60s and early 70s (but youthful in spirit) with a large garden and yard. We often need help with gardening - planting, weeding, landscaping, raking, etc. Suzanne is vegan and Kit is an omnivore but our meals are always healthy and plentiful with home made bread. Our neighbourhood is very appealing as we live within walking distance of a provincial park with lots of beautiful trees and trails (John Dean Provincial Park) and also within an easy walk of Panorama Recreation Centre with a wonderful swimming pool, hot tub, tennis courts, etc. We're happy to lend helpers bikes so they can explore independently. We're a 20-minute bike ride from Sidney. We also live close to beaches that are good for swimming in summer.

  Oportunidades de intercâmbio cultural e aprendizado

  We’re well-travelled and we welcome travellers from other countries so we can learn about their culture while we share ours. Travellers might learn about the history of Canada, our First Nations people (there are many in our region), our style of democracy, what we eat and how we cook. If English is a second language they can work to improve it.

  Ajuda

  We need physically strong helpers who are able to weed, dig holes, move plants and clean up overgrown blackberries. We let you determine your work hours based on your personal preferences, and in return we expect you to honour your work commitment. We really appreciate reliable, self-motivated individuals who are quick learners.
  
  If your arrival date or time changes, please inform us immediately.

  Acomodação

  Guests have a private bedroom with a Queen size Murphy bed that you can raise and lower each day or leave down, as you prefer. Our home is a modest but comfortable one-level rancher in a rural subdivision. We have a beautiful garden, small pond and outdoor patios and deck. We're in the process of making a hot tub! Our neighbourhood is very safe and pleasant to walk around. We provide nutritious food. We let guests decide when and what to eat for breakfast and lunch and we take turns cooking and sharing dinner and cleaning up afterwards.

  Algo mais...

  We live a fairly quiet life. We don’t smoke and do not want anyone smoking or doing drugs on our property. We expect guests to be mature and independent, capable of entertaining themselves. We love to socialize but not all the time!
  
  Please note: personal hygiene products with a fragrance are NOT welcome. We have sensitive noses and the chemicals in many body care products today are overwhelming and polluting. We don't want our home to smell like a perfume factory. Thank you for your understanding.
  
  On time off, guests can enjoy walking in John Dean Provincial Park, cycling on trails and country roads, swimming at the beach or Panorama RecreationCentre, exploring the nearby town of Sidney or taking the bus into Victoria (the capital city of British Columbia), about a 45 minute bus ride away.
