Hallo Rick
Lots of 'Come from Aways' are running businesses around Digby/Annapolis but it is not a wealthy area so wages and prices are not what you would expect in Ontario or Halifax, but, as many are finding, quality of life more than makes up for that. The nearest university is at Wolfville.
There are kilting opportunities, although I have never been there at the right times, namely Burns Night celebrations and Highland Games in September in connection with the Wharf Rat Rally in Digby.
Have a look at the local web-sites: www.annapolisdigby.com; www.digby.ca; annapolisroyal.com.
Whatever you decide, I hope it will be a great success.

Brian
