We are an international family of four. Tomas is from Czech Republic, although he has lived in Kitimat for 24 years now.  He works as a process improvement and and quality technician.  His passions are hiking, sailing, travel, reading, and music.  Catherine and the boys are from North Yorkshire; they have been in Kitimat for eight years.  Catherine is a Registered Nurse, specializing in gerontology.  Her interests include gardening, travel, and music.

Chris (on the left) will be 17 in March 2004.  He likes soccer, golf, basketball, volleyball, and computer games.  Greg (on the right) will be 13 in July 2004.  He is also crazy about soccer, golf, and basketball.  He also recently discovered hiking and, for the first time, started playing ice hockey!

Last but not least, we have two animals: nine-year old dog Ben, with a very kind disposition, and a self-sufficient Kitty.  Whether you would like them to stay in the house during house exchange is fully negotiable.
