Descrição
Hi, My name is Nick.
I have lived in Edmonton, Alberta for over 30 years. My sister and I host travelers through bnb sites and other hosting sites. I have hosted over 150 guests and roommates. I am an superhost and was an avid traveler many years ago.
I can offer a private room, one single/double bed, a shared bathroom, shared kitchen and high speed internet in the core of Edmonton.
Lunch and snack are provided on working days. Meals are not guaranteed during days off but we do try and provide a staple of food to cook from yourself. We do offer plenty of free time to explore and adventure.
Most stays are 2 - 3 weeks.

I myself can very busy with work and other things. I or my sister can give you all the information you will need to make it around the Edmonton and surrounding areas. If I do have time I would love to explore with you (but that is not a guarantee).
My sister has a wealth of knowledge of events happening in the city at any one time so please feel free to ask her and inquire.

Their major task was cleaning up a clutter room to make it more livable and organized. They also helped another work away with cleaning, sorting and yard work.
Compared to other workawayers on the platform they are in the younger category and do recommend supervising and helping more them whenever possible.… read more

I would always go back to his place and can highly recommend to stay with him :)
She performed duties such as cleaning, gardening and painting. She was very respectful and very tidy.
Would be happy to have her back if she drives past this area in Alberta again.

She came to me because another workaway was not working out. Had that workaway worked out I could have not met her so I am personally, and selfishly, glad it did not.

She ended up doing a lot of gardening work, lawn mowing and tree pruning. She also learned a little bit of photography. Her cleaning skills were excellent.
Dorkas was very thorough in her tasks and displayed a good attitude. She is a fast… read more
This was her first work away experience and she performed amazingly. She did work I only dreamed about doing (cleaning and organizing my garage). She was a huge help and I hope to see her again if she is in Edmonton.

Nick is a very kind, caring host who does not only want the duties to be done, but who also wants the workawayers to enjoy their time in the city. He was flexibel on the working hours and allowed me to work independently whenever possible. I helped with… read more
I spent most of my days with Amelia and one day with Nick. Both of them are very kind, patient and willing to share their experiences and recommandations! Amelia sent me a lot of free events which help me explore Edmonton and have some fun experiences. And… read more
Let me elaborate a little more. Elise did contact me on this platform but we were out of sync on communication and she ended up staying somewhere else in the city. I do really enjoy travelers from far and wide so we did hang out for a few days and explored the city together. While we did… read more
I worked mostly 3-4 hours and had a lot of free time to visit Edmonton. The work was easy going (weeding, cleaning and painting).
I had a good time at Amelia's stay and could recommend this place for other workawayers.
She was very patient with our level of English.
She let us work independently and always asked if we were okay with doing this or that. She left us plenty of free time so that we could visit Edmonton and the surrounding area. She advised us of… read more
They worked on a home that needed cleaning and organizing. She had many good things to say about them during their stay.

He did various tasks like painting, carpentry and maintenance. He was a big help with things around the house.
He completely sanded a table and painted it. He also painted other furniture around the house. He used the mitresaw and helped with baseboard and he tiled a backslash for the kitchen.

Terry, my sister and I worked on some light renovations, snow shoveling and moving. As promised when he contacted me, the majority of the tough work would be when he first arrived. He helped me move about 30 boxes of laminate with no complaints. After the job was completed it was snow… read more
