    Description

    I live on 3/4 of an acre on one of the most beautiful islands in the world: Vashon Island. We are a short ferry ride and a world away from downtown Seattle, Washington. The property has a large yard with a garden and a barn that functions as an art studio.
    I am looking for a single person without pets. This is a no smoking property. You would be staying in the loft that is in the main house, I reside in a small cabin alongside. There is a private bathroom for your use, and we would share kitchen and laundry facilities.
    I would enjoy help with my garden and other projects such as cleaning, painting and help with the computer. I am an artist who works in cast glass. I really love to meet people from other countries, especially Scandinavia, Europe and Japan. Work hours are flexible. My house is within walking distance of the dock for the ferry to Seattle. The Vashon bus stops only a block away. There is no need for a car in this convenient location.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Travelers would see a rural, very friendly island with many artists and musicians. Vashon has a rich diversity of cultural and sports opportunities. If that isn't enough, Seattle, a world class city is only 20 minutes away by ferry.

    No car needed. Volunteers can take the ferry over to Tacoma or Seattle (both take about 20 minutes) and enjoy Pikes Place market, fine restaurants, art museums, music events, etc. On Vashon, we have all these things too! Plus hikes in deep forest, kayaking, beach walks, and camping and much more.
