Housing Wanted. Hello all! My name is Cade and I am looking for a longish-term rental in Abbotsford, preferably on or near Sumas mountain. I would be looking for a 2 or 3 bedroom place, preferably the top floor of a house or a whole house but open to basement suites or apartments if they are right. I would really love space to garden and lots of light for indoor plants. I would be looking for somewhere that I could move into in either May or June. A little about myself, I will be graduating from Columbia Bible College this April with a degree in Applied Leadership and a diploma in Outdoor Leadership. I love all things outdoors, skiing, climbing, running, etc. and have been getting quite into cooking recently! I am a non-smoker, non-partier who lives a pretty quiet life when I am not out in the mountains. I have been doing Wildfire fighting over the last few summers and have just got a job as a paramedic following graduation, and my roommate does construction full time. Budget would be roughly $650-$800 per bedroom, so between $1300-$1600 for a two bedroom and $1900-$2400 for a three bedroom. If you have a space that you think would be a good fit and are interested in having me as a tenant please let me know! Cade.penner@gmail.com 02/28
