    Description

    Hobbies are gardening, horse riding backyard fires and dogs. Have 5! Love cooking, music and laughter. A day here is mostly up to you! Love puttering? Beautiful views? Lots of indoor/outdoor projects.
    Property maintenance, fire wood, fire prevention/brush clearing, dog walking. Fence fixing. If you know acreage life - you know what's up.
    We have all the tools anybody could ever want for woodworking and mechanics.
    We would just appreciate, help taking care of everything, and finishing up projects of all kinds
    Gardening season is around the corner, so the veggies also have to get put in the ground!

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    We are a very diverse family. From current affairs, politics, sports, hunting, nature, business, veterinary, skin care, travel, cooking, healthy lifestyle, living rural (no public transport). We live in wine country, surrounded by lakes, mountains and have access to the back country.

  • Help

    Help

    We are a family of 5 adults living on the property. Mom, Dad, 2 daughters (25 & 27) and a roommate of Savana (27) who live in the carriage house. We are all very busy, a little help with the daily chores of living rural would be great. Some house cleaning, yard maintenance, horse feeding, dog walking. Pretty chill.
    Being confident around dogs is important as we are working with 2 large dogs who need a bit of time to be comfortable around new people. They are all super friendly once acclimatized. 2 of the 5 of need walking separately daily.

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    Private bedroom with King bed and private bathroom. Self serve breakfast and lunch. We usually eat the evening meal together. We have a diverse diet - very healthy - love creative cooking and everything made from scratch. Don't mind accommodating different eating philosophies. Our home is not great for vegans & some vegetarians as there is meat eaten every day and we are a hunting family.

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    We live in a rural area with no public transportation. There are 5 adults on the property so someone is always coming from or going to town. The bus is a 10 min drive. Kelowna is a beautiful town and there is anything from skiing to hiking in all directions. The city is 160000 people.
