Need a holiday? I can help!!
Description
Three years ago an almost stranger called me and asked if I wanted to use a room in the condo they had rented. It was an amazing gift as I was at a place where I needed the break. On my mini-vacation I made a commitment that I would do the same for others if I had the opportunity.
Fast forward and now for the past 2 years I have offered up a room in my rented condo in Canmore to anyone who could use a break or a getaway. In May I am getting away again for a personal retreat and if someone wants to use the other room in the condo you are welcome to it.
In past years I have successfully made this offer 4 times. Only one of those times was a train wreck - so those are not bad odds huh? You can treat this like a rental for yourself however I will not be asking for any rent. I really just want to give a gift to someone who might be struggling and just need a break.
Here is what you need to know…
- I will not make the offer to a complete stranger. This means I will require you to interact with me on some level before you come to the condo.
- You can be male or female.
- You do not have to hang out with me for the 5 days away. I am coming for my personal retreat. To hike and explore the area. What you do is up to you.
- Under no circumstances will I tolerate any partying or drugs at the condo. Also, smoking will not be allowed inside.
- I am not looking to get anything out of this except maybe a friend. This is my way of paying it forward.
I am a mid-50’s man who has, in the last 5 years, found myself recreating and doing life pretty much alone. I like to bless good people who like myself, share a quiet and respectful demeanour. I am sure you have questions, please ask away. This offer has taken a few months to fill in the past so I am starting early. Also, I am presently actively looking among my friends and family as they will get priority.
Hope to hear from you. I am looking forward to meeting some good folks.
