Become part of our family! Help Dra. Angela and Mauricio with different chores
Our project started about 15 years ago. Unfortunately, the project is closed now. Nevertheless, we are looking forward to reactivating it. There are still lots of different chores/tasks that you can help us with, and in exchange, you can stay in the heart of Mexico City and explore all the incredible activities the city has to offer
We required someone to help Dra Angela ( 89 years old) she is an active psicoanalisis that needs different chores around her apartment, cooking breakfast for both ( she mostly follows a juice diet and a vegan meals, but youre welcome to eat what you like) , help making her bed, cleaning the kitchen after breakfast , and making sure everything is in order in the apartment for her patients, she is also eager to learn English, she would really appreciate practicing with you!
The hours are as follows: from 7 hrs to 12 hrs. ( since she lives at a different apartment youll will need to take a bycicle, which we will provide you, to get to her house, the schedule would only be 5 hours,) monday to friday, after that youre free for the rest of the day to explore the city or work, we also welcome digital nomads, and if that schedule doesnt work with your times, we can arrange something else.
We also need someone else ( or you can come as a couple or a group of friends) to help Mauricio, his apartment ( where you will be staying) is in need of organization and cleaning ( the bedrooms are clean and ready to welcome you with clean bedding and towels), most organization is to put away books, sell some things online or donate, most of the job is already done and most furniture would be moved to a different location in Cuautla Morelos ( you can also help with that) Maurio is an a long time activist, very involve in political and envioramental activisim and onces the apartment is organized, he would like to start recording videos and an online campaign for different topics ( if you have the skills and or equipment to record youll be more than welcome) he also needs help learning how to use social media and youtube)
You're welcome to stay at least for a month as long as 1 year
You will received 1 meals a day and work 5 hours. (we are open to negotiate the schedule and meals)

What else ...
Mexico city is one of the most exciting places to live without a doubt, a multicultural place with a vast number of activities to do in your time off, it has the major number of museums in a city in the world, all the time there´s something exciting happening from cultural events, art cinema, galleries, to local shopping, all kind of delicious food, concerts, arqueological places, anything can be find to do in here. The city is also surrended by natural protected áreas and small towns to visit.
However if you are ¨grillero¨ like us, you will find Mexico city one of the most combatives places to involve to fight for good causes, where everyday there´s an organization protesting for human or animal rights, farmers marching for better working conditions, against big transnational companies,ect. We are part of different organizations and activisim is a big part of our agenda, we focus our main attention in ecology, animal rights, labor work, we believe all fights are connected and we try our best to be involve in all we can.
