Once upon a time...
... in 2004, a Monkey and a Robot left a meditation center in Sri Lanka. The Robot was all organized and had booked a rickshaw and a hotel in the next city (Kandy). To save money, the Robot invited the Monkey to share the rickshaw and the hotel room. The Monkey brought bananas, other fruits and buffalo curd to fuel up the Robot every morning. Since then a special bond brought them together many times and another force separated them equally as many times. When they were together, they traveled, renovated a house and created a wonderful garden. When they were separate, the Monkey flew planes and the Robot analyzed peptides. This went on for many years until something wonderful happened; a Little Monkey was born. The Monkey didn’t want to go away flying planes anymore and the Robot didn’t want to go away to analyze peptides anymore. They both wanted to be with the Little Monkey. So they bought a big house in West Kelowna with a big yard and started a Bed & Breakfast. They named their new adventure Monkeys B&B; a place where all monkeys are welcomed. Soon after, Tiny Monkey was born and added a whole new and exciting dimention to the family.
The Monkey is the artist in the family. He built several driftwood structures on our previous property.
At the B&B he is the one who looks for the best fruits in the area, picks the fresh herbs and veggies in our garden and makes your breakfast. If he is not working at the B&B he is gone for a mountain bike ride, fixes his many bikes or researches bike parts. By the way, his real name is Trevor. |
The Robot is the organizer in the family. She loves to plan and realize renovations and garden projects.
At the B&B she is the one who works in the background; updating the webpage, managing bookings and making jams and jellies from local fruits. She also is in charge of the two little monkeys while the big monkey makes breakfast.
At the moment she is into permaculture and realizes some of those great ideas to reduce water consumption on our property. Her real name is Anita.
The Little Monkey is now four. He takes care that nobody is bored and tests the nerves of the big ones.
At the B&B he helps a lot: getting the eggs from our neighbours, watering our veggie garden and his clothes and crushing eggshells for the tomatoes (against blossom end rot). He also makes sure that our guests are not bored and gives some of them presents like dandelions from the garden.
In his free time he zooms around with his pedal bike, climbs trees and bushes and plays in the sand box.
His real name is Luca.
The Tiny Monkey is now two years old and not so tiny anymore. He loves to run around, to pull out irigation emitters and to squeeze worms and bugs. He already learned that squeezing bees "makes owie".
At the B&B he usually welcomes our guests with a big smile.
His real name is Nico.
