Theo; Holland, Dec 15-21, 2006
Theo, from Holland, was our last Wwoofer of 2006. We usually don’t take Wwoofers at this time of year, because we don’t have much for chores. However, we sensed that Theo needed an experience in the winter Rockies, so we agreed to take him on.
We had already had a lot of snow by this time, so Theo did his share of snow shovelling and kept the barn clean. This is something a Wwoofer must be prepared to do during winter in the Rockies. Theo was very good at origami, he made us several small figures, including frogs and birds. We used some of these on our Christmas Tree.
Surprisingly for someone who was travelling in the Rockies during the winter, Theo was not interested in out of door recreation. We did get Theo out on the sleigh for our inaugural season ride. Theo headed off onto the Slocan Valley, however due to poor hitchhiking he ended up travelling back to Lytton to a host home, where he had purchased a vehicle for travelling in over the next few month. We did not here from Theo after he had reached Lytton. We do hope he has found his way ok.
