    Description

    We are a family of 5 with kids age , 2, 6 and 15.
    We are originally from quebec and speak mostly french in our home but we are all comfortable speaking english as well.
    We have a bedroom to offer. We are just across the road from the ocean with a mountain view over tree island, texeda and Jervis inlet.
    we have a cat and a smal dog .
    But from July to mid August, I'll be by myself, as my wife and 3 kids are going to QC for the summer.
    While they are away, I'm looking for help sanding and painting .
    Let me know if this is something you want to help with.
