Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
We enjoy travelling all over the World for three months during our Canadian winter. Contact with local people is very important and we feel that we learn a lot by doing this.
ABOUT ME
We have a country property and love being outdoors. We do volunteer work in the community and love hiking,tennis, wood turning , gardening etc. We both don't do all of these things but certainly get roped in to help at times.
We enjoy our winter backpacking trip and enjoy the change of culture and pace. We have met many great people on the way and are new to couch surfing but think that it will increase our local contact which we always find to be a great experience.
PHILOSOPHY
Respect others and treat others as you would like to be treated
