Tanya Has an Apartment for Rent

In this homestay, you don't just get a room... depending on my schedule, you may have the whole apartment all to yourself! I will either be elsewhere, or may sleep on the pullout couch in the livingroom. I live in a cute and cozy apartment in a beautiful and exciting area of Vancouver called "Mount Pleasant". I am on the ground floor, south facing, looking into the most beautiful garden -- I call it the Garden of Eden. My place is quiet and super bright, and inside it's like a silent retreat. There is a huge, shared back lawn at the back of my building, with tall trees providing cooling shade. When you go out the front doors of the building, however, you are one block from a hustling, bustling bee hive of fun activity: Mount Pleasant Park, which is a huge, vibrant park which takes up several city blocks, and Main Street with dozens of delicious, character restaurants, cafes and novelty shops. There is also a Save-on-Foods grocery store, post office and dollar store in a mini-mall which is also only two blocks away. This is the hub of Vancouver, where you are 10 to 20 minutes from downtown, Kitsilano, Commercial Drive, Vancouver's beaches --all the happening areas -- and right in the middle of this happening area, "Mount Pleasant", a beautiful walking neighbourhood full of gorgeous, character parks, homes and shops. I am a certified English and French teacher. I love to welcome guests to my home. There is street parking on the street (14th Avenue near Main, or Quebec Street). The place is tastefully decorated with live-wood furniture, and a modern white couch, which can convert into another queen-sized bed to sleep two additional people. There is a shared fridge in the kitchen and in the bedroom. There is a patio which greets the morning sun and a plethora of birds. I require a minimum of two days. No smoking or pets, though I do have a cat and will ask you to feed her in the morning if I am not home in the apartment myself. Guests must be quiet and respectful of my neighbours, no loud partying. It is a very quiet building. Cash payment is due on arrival.
