    Description

    Hello! I am Yanalté. I love traveling and culture exchange. After many adventures around the world and living in a few different countries, I am now staying in one place for a while and creating my home sweet home. I live in the town Jerez de Garcia Salinas which is about an hour from Zacatecas City. It's a Pueblo Magico and absolutely gorgeous! I look forward to showing you around!

    I would love to keep learning German.
    I live with my husband and husky.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    I grew up in California, but my family is from a small village nearby. I have 1 extra bike and we can bike there so you can experience the "rancho" life =)
    We can cook together and exchange recipes from around the world. We can show you around and perhaps even go on a camping trip.

    We need help painting our house.
    I'm working on a mural in the living room. If you have art skills/experience in murals that would be great! If you know how to paint clouds that would be even better!!

    If you know carpentry, we need help making a window, shelves, stools, etc.
    We're working on a lot of DIY projects.
    Ideas are welcome!

    I would love to keep learning German. If you know German, I will probably ask for at least an hour of German lessons a day please!

    If you're a couple, each person is expected to work maximum 3 hours a day, 5 days a week. It could be on the same project or different :)

    Unfortunately, we can't offer meals, but we don't mind sharing what we have within reason. For this reason, we're only asking for a maximum of 15 hours a week per person.
