Moving to Whistler was a lifestyle choice. We play in the mountains in every way we can: skiing, backcountry skiing, cross country skiing and snowshoeing in winter and then mountain biking, canoeing and hiking in the summer. We are both working professionals (lawyer and journalist) who are active volunteers in our community. We have two dogs, but we have allergies, so we are looking for visitors who will keep our home as immaculate as we keep theirs. Steven is fluent in both English and French. Allergic to cats.
