Matilda August 13th-25th/07


Wow, reading what Mathilde wrote in our Wwoofer memory book reminds us of all the great and helpful wwoofers we have hosted here at Eh Canadian Farm Woodlot. Mathilde from France is a very charming and fun person. Mathilde will be a Doctor (GP), 6 months after she returns home. All those, Mathilde met here, were very sorry to see her head off on her journey. Mathilde brought the best out in those she met. Her infectious and positive attitude made her a joy to host. Matilda was very independent and self motivated.
Matilda who was happy to stay in the caravan, helped a lot in the lodge as well as in the garden and around the yard and barn. And without even turning up her nose took on the job of cleaning the chicken coupe. Mathilde did get out as well. We attened a Disco party at our neighbours, and Mathilde didn't hesitate to share in the fun. Had dinner at the Eagle's Eye thanks to new friends we met at the lodge. We hiked to Gorman lake with friends, Mathilde, Rachelle and I hiked to Hamilton Lake near Emerald Lake and Mathilde worked on overcoming her fear of dogs, by going on a dog walk with neighbours and at least 6 dogs. As a conclusion to her stay here, Mathilde hosted an appetizer party at our place to say so long to friends she had met here. Matilda however, will be remembered for two phrases. "Now the truck is more stuck." "I put 2 cups of cinnamon in the cake."
