We are a lesbian couple who have been together for twenty-five years and love our life in Victoria with our Bouvier Joop and our little Victorian house. Dieuwertje, (60) was born in Holland and Frances, (55) hails from the Canadian praries but we both have grown to love the West Coast. Dieuwertje is an artist/woodworker who designs builds and installs custom gates passageways and furniture for the out of doors. Frances is a certified Sommelier who works at Zambris the best Italian restaurant in town. She also runs the business and writes for the website. We share a passion for architecture both in the home and garden and would love to explore other cultures. ![]()
