Description
Hi Everyone! My name is Michelle. We live in a home right by Disnleyland in California. We have no kids, Our place during evenings, we play board games together or do some vr games or simply hang out. We enjoy family dinners almost every night together. We have a lot of travelers that come through from all over who sometimes stay with us as well.
Our enviroment has been described as warm and positive. We are near all the public transportations. Its just one bus from our place to the beaches in California. We are only a few mins away from Disneyland and Knotts Berry farm. Theres also public transport to downtown La as well. We love meeting people from all over the world. We find it interesting to hear your stories and exchange ours as well.
I can show you my vietnameese culture. Teach you about the yummy foods. I live right near Korea town, little Arabia and little Saigon. On the weekends, id be happy to show you around.
You can look at the photos for some the activities we do. We can take you every weekend to explore different festivals or different things, i also ride a motorcycle if you are ever interested in hopping in the back.
All the photos we have is Workaway photos and things we have taken our workawayers to do and experience.
If you like to play board games, it's a huge plus! Or video games. We are a bit on the nerdy side. 🤓
We like to keep things always positive here and we hope you enjoy your stay with us and that all the things we do together will be memorable for you. We have weekend outings together often. We try to do our best to take you around to events around the city or explore when we have time and if you would like .
I love building friendships with my workawayers and some that have came through here are friends I know I'll have for life. We do this for cultural exchange to hopefully learn more about you and vice versa If you are only looking to stay somewhere and not have a connection, this may be the wrong place for you. Weekends we like to take our guests to different events or things to doTypes of help and learning opportunities
