Welcome to Marcelline Lawrence's Family Home- Freyal, Dominica.
The Lawrence family, Marcelline, her husband Ivan, daughter Gracie and their dog Shady, lives in the village of Freyal close to Riviere Cyriques, Dominica.
The family has a local farm that produces bananas, cocoa, coffee, spice (cinnamon) and other crops, and this is where Ivan spends much of his time. Gracie is a primary school teacher in nearby Morne Jaune and Marcelline spends much of her time gardening and maintaining the home.
The Lawrence family lives in one of Dominica’s more modern homes and have television, a telephone and running water, although extra water is also collected from outside.
The available bedroom is spacious and comfortable and the family often relaxes in the living room during the evenings to watch television or to have conversations. Meals are usually taken together.
Please note: this is a non-smoking and non-alcoholic household.
To Do
Assist in household and gardening tasks with Marcelline, visit the farm and participate in boxing bananas, weeding dasheen or learning about spice (cinnamon) harvesting with Ivan, or visit the primary school in Morne Jaune with Gracie. Guests are also invited to attend the local Pentecostal church with the family on Sundays.
