Program Details

A home away from Home
Helpers share meals, stories, and daily life with our family and other international guests. We eat together around the dinner table, share responsibilities, and build a community based on respect, teamwork, and friendship.

Dreamscape Ranch offers wide-open spaces, fresh air, and the chance to disconnect from busy city life. Helpers often use their free time for horseback riding (dependent on skill level), hiking the property, wildlife watching, journaling, or simply enjoying peaceful days outdoors.

What We Offer
- Hands-on experience working with horses and other ranch animals
- Comfortable shared accommodation and home-cooked meals
- Opportunities to ride and improve horsemanship skills
- Real-world English language practice
- A safe, supportive environment for cultural exchange and personal growth
- An unforgettable working holiday experience in British Columbia
