our month on galiano was all we could have hoped for. the cabin was cozy, and we couldn't have asked for a more warm and accommodating host and neighbor. our intention was a home to cook in, walking distance from the necesaries, with easy access to the fun stuff. helen's cabin both met and exceeded our hopes. the small pictures aren't sufficient to capture the view, or the afternoon light, or the rapidity of a hummingbird's wings as it feeds. we hiked a lot, paddled some, devised a new fajita technique, finished a kayak, read not enough, played games and dreamt of buying real estate and moving to galiano. this place will keep a piece of your heart when you leave.
