Descrição
Hello, I'm Mélodie, I'm French, and I have been living in Québec City for 5 years.
I'm currently organizing a trip between Alberta and Vancouver when I would like to stay around 2 weeks at a ranch with horses (end of August and mid-September).
I have some experience with horses and animals, as I practiced horseriding for 12 years when I was living in France.

I did my first volunteering experience two months ago in Nepal, when I had to teach children in a monastery.

I would also like to meet new people during my next trip to West Canada.
Generally speaking, I should arrive in Calgary around the 23–24th of August, spending a few days and visiting Banff
Reach Vancouver and then Port Hardy on Vancouver Island.
Take the ferry from Port Hardy to Prince Rupert to finally reach Jasper by train.

Feel free to contact me if you would like to join or spend some time 🙂

Deixado pelo Workawayer () para o anfitrião (Come and help out our family ...)

I stayed with Becky and her family for about two weeks; she was my first Workaway host, and I was a little bit nervous as I waited at the bus stop in Kamloops 😅. But this apprehension disappeared when I met Becky. She was highly friendly and welcoming, and I quickly felt like a member of the family. My bedroom was spacious and comfortable, like… read more the rest of the house in fact 😁. If you like the rodeo style, as I do, this is the place to be; the decor is fantastic🤠. There are many animals living here, including three adorable dogs (and some lovely puppies remaining), a calf (that I had to feed from a bottle), two goats, and two horses with a funny foal.
The small farm was beautiful, and feeding and spending time with the animals in the morning was my favourite task. The house is almost in the middle of nowhere, and the surrounding area is simply stunning. I had never seen this landscape before. There was no need to be in the middle of a city to get distracted; simply walking with the dogs behind the house and playing with the foal and puppies was enough to make life enjoyable here. I had the opportunity to meet her husband, Rod, on the first weekend; he was kind enough to come and get me from the house just to take me to the junior rodeo, where their last son was competing. I had already experienced a similar event in the past, I was excited to discover the rodeo backstage and the organization (a lot of work!!) with them. They did a lot of effort to allow me to be present on this day 🥲.
I assisted Becky with housework, including preparing meals for multiple occasions and many people! 😉 I enjoy cooking and the challenge, so I had a lot of fun helping her with this task. That allowed me to meet a lot of new people (including her family and friends). I had an incredible chance to meet her funny brother, and his lovely family, as well as her wonderful parents. I helped her father in his organic garden and at the market in Kamloops; it was my first time and I guess that was one of my best experience. Her father is an incredible person with an amazing story. I only met a small portion of the family, but they are extremely generous and have a strong sense of unity; this is an exceptional family model. Becky is a lovely person with a big heart who gives generously to everyone and the community around her. She is a brave, hard worker who cares about your well-being. I had the opportunity to ride her horse a few times. I used to ride a lot in the past...so now thanks to her I want to ride again 😂 I also met and visited many Becky's friends, she took me to the restaurant and theatre with them, I was really included everywhere like a real member of the family 😁
I probably missed many things, But I wish them to be happy in the future and have everything they want.
This house and this family will miss me, as well as dogs (the last puppy 😭) horses, cats....
I hope I will get some news of them in the future 🥰

(Excelente)
