In Dubois

Hello together! It is a long time ago since my last blogg letter! and it is a lot happend! I staied 1 Monts on the Farm! My work was to cut woot for the winther and a lot of fencing, to fix the fences around the farm! I lerned a lot in this time! I had very cood conversations with this woman on the Farm, and I lerned also a lot through the mental handicapt kid who lives there..

The Farm is close to the town Lander! I went one week ago for a weekend in Casper by a Family. I met this Family through Francoise (the woman on the Farm), and so they invited me for a weekend to come to them. Was pretty fun, we went in good Restaurands, we went in a Museum, on the Mountain and they took me with to a birthday Party from her family. The Man of the Family teacht in a scool close to the Farm, and he life through the week there and he gave me His car (a big chevrole Pick up)for this too days that I can go to the Yellowstone National Park. I went yesterday on the gate of this Park, sadly I couldn't pas because they have there too much Ice and snow on the street. so I went spontaniously through another nice Park with nice lakes and Mountains. For the Night I was in Jackson that is a very nice Cowboy Town.
And now I'm in Dubois that is a small town on the way back to the Farm. I will stay on the Farm until to Friday. After I go to Billings, I can there Perhaps work as volunteer for too weeks on the Yellowstone Girls and Boys Ranch. This is on this time not yet sure because I wrote a application and they give me answer this week. That is a Therapie center for Mental handicapt kids or for kids with a bad past. They have there more than 300 kids through the day. On Friday in 5 weeks, I come back to switherland I arive on Saturday the 10th december. Hey God bless you very mutch, and see you!!

Vancouver Island

Hello together

So I'm back in Vancouver in my Homestey! Tomorrow I'm flying to Riverton!
The journey on the island was pretty nice. We went one night in Victoria and then we drove to Tofino. We had there a lot of fun! We went there in the hot springs and whale watching. We saw grew whales and humpback wahles (Buckelwahle). This was great
:-)! On wensday and thursday morning we went surfing with a man from the Village, he gave us the basic in surfing, and so we had any hours time to try! The water was pretty cold, but we wore wet suits, and so the temperature was ok. The group was getting bigger, becouse we met another girl from Switzerland and a girl from south England in Tofino! On Fridey we split the group, and so I went alone back to Victoria becouse I liked to see the Butchart garden and the British Columbia museum! Finally on Fridey evening back in Victoria I went in the Butchart garden. This is a beautiful place with a lot of flowers. I can say to you, if you like color, so you will like this place :-)! And the most people of you knows wat I feel in refer to color :-)!! Victoria is a small old beautiful city at the ocean. Old in refer of Canada, not in refer of Europe. On saturday morning I went to the BC museum. In this museum is alot about the history of British Columbia, about the Aborigines and the first white people in Canada...Captain Cook and after George Vancouver. Finally after I visited the museum I Vent back to Vancouver. On the Ferri I saw a group of maybe 8 Orcas (Killerwahles), they jumped beside the Ferri out of the water!! this was amazing. I took a lot of photographs with the large lens on my Camera! Hey in December you have to come to me and watch the color slides (Dias)!! So I wish you a very good time and be blessed! I write again after my stay on the Farm!
best wishes! Rolf
