CURRENT MISSION

Louise and Brandon, ready for guests!

ABOUT ME

It's not often you'll find us both in the same place at the same time for a long time. But it turns out we have to knuckle down for a couple of years, and there is no better place to do that than the beautiful Okanagan in BC. I'm Louise, a travel agent, and my boyfriend Brandon is an Environmental Science student. We are 28-29. It's hard to define us both or as a couple in such a forum, but we are basically easy-going and friendly, sometimes we like a crazy party, sometimes we like a quiet night in. Typical BC ski culture, small town lifestyle. Think the opposite of Jersey Shore !
