Homestay in View Royal, Canada
We are retired teachers who moved to Victoria last summer and turned a large bedroom into a comfortable living space suitable for 1-2 people. We look forward to sharing our home with a quiet, respectful and responsible guest.
We like to hike, cook, read, explore Victoria, and meet people. We volunteer by cooking and baking at a seniors' centre in our spare time. We love to travel and have enjoyed hiking trips in Spain, Portugal, Italy, Greece and Turkey. One of us speaks French and we both enjoy learning Spanish and Italian. We have three adult sons, including one who lives nearby.
What's included:
• new queen bed
• wardrobe with drawers
• night-table & bedside lamp
• armchairs, coffee table, reading lamp
• study table & chairs
• bookshelf
• personal fridge, microwave, toaster oven, kettle
• lock on bedroom door
• shared house kitchen & bathroom
• shared patio space
• laundry (one load per week)
• WIFI & utilities
We look forward to hosting a guest in our home, and sharing activities such as local sightseeing, picnics, beach-combing and hiking if the guest wishes. We enjoy our peaceful lifestyle; no smoking, pets, loud noise or parties allowed. Guests are expected to keep their space reasonably clean and tidy.
