Description
Welcome to our home! We are excited to open our doors to you. You will have a private bedroom and bathroom in our safe and cozy home. We are an Egyptian-American family. My wife teaches English and Accent Reduction for non-English speakers, and I run a small digital marketing business from my home office. We mostly speak English, but I also speak Arabic.
We would love for you to become part of our family during your stay! In return for your accommodation and meals, we ask for your help with some marketing and admin help, which we do for about five hours a day. We do ask for a minimum stay of three weeks to make the most of this experience together.
Before reaching out, please be sure you are committed to this arrangement. Our profile shows our lifestyle and the space you'll stay in. We’d also love to learn more about you, so please share photos or social media profiles. Unfortunately, we cannot accept requests without personal photos.Types of help and learning opportunities
