Kelowna Homestay Host # 15227

I believe hosting an international student or guest will offer a learning experience not only for the student, but for my young son and myself to learn about the students, their country and culture. Walking, hiking, bike riding, going to the lake, some downhill skiing I live in Glenmore, Kelowna, BC as a single mother with a young son, age nine. My home is newer, 5yrs old and a townhouse. The neighbourhood is quiet with lot’s of hiking right across the street! We are close to grocery stores, movie theatre, beaches, downtown, hockey arena, restaurants. UBCO and Okanagan College is approx. 20 minute drive away. Although a person can walk to some of these amenities, biking, bus or vehicle is recommended. The bus stop is a short distance from my home.

The room I have for rent is very comfortable and has it’s own full bathroom with shower & tub. It is located in the basement and private. I have provided all furniture and bedding! Just bring your clothes and settle in!
