Description
We are a Canadian family seeking help with gardening and regular household tasks. As passionate travelers ourselves, we occasionally offer house-sitting opportunities during our trips. We're environmentally conscious and love speaking French.
Looking for support with:
Garden maintenance and land development
Daily household responsibilities (cleaning , cooking, ...)
House-sitting when we travel ( we have 1 dog , and chickens ! )
We provide an eco-friendly home environment where you can practice French while contributing to our sustainable lifestyle.
About the location:
We are located in Golden, British Columbia, a beautiful mountain town known for its stunning natural surroundings and outdoor activities. Golden is a paradise for nature lovers, adventurers, and those seeking a peaceful environment.
What you can do and see locally:
Hiking & Nature Walks 🥾: Explore the many trails around our place , including Thomoson Falls, Bee's trail etc....
National Parks Nearby 🌿: We are close to several national parks, including Yoho, Glacier, and Banff National Parks, where you can see breathtaking landscapes, waterfalls, and wildlife.
Kicking Horse Mountain Resort 🎿: A popular destination for skiing in the winter and mountain biking or via ferrata in the summer. You can also visit the Grizzly Bear Refuge, home to Boo, a rescued grizzly.
We are also 15 minutes from Golden Skybridge 🌉: Walk across Canada’s highest suspension bridges and enjoy an amazing panoramic view.
Whether you love the outdoors, want to improve your French, or just experience life in a welcoming and sustainable home, we would love to host you! 😊Types of help and learning opportunities
