Description
I am Ana, a single 50 year old woman who purchased an old house that needs more work that I can handle by myself. I am originally from Spain and I also speak a little French and Italian. I work long hours and my weekends come and go too fast so I am not accomplishing as much as I would like in the house. So I need help.
I live in beautiful San Diego, about 15 min from downtown and 20 min from Coronado Island (where one of the best beaches in the US is). The weather here is amazing all year around. I live on top of a hill with beautiful views from the front (city views) and the back (mountain views). There are also plenty of hiking trails you can access walking distance from the house.
My house is 1800 sq.ft. (3 bedroom / 2 bathroom). You will have your own room and bathroom while you are my guest. You are going to need to rent a car because public transportation is not within walking distance.
I usually cook my meals from scratch but if you like to cook and want to do some of the cooking, I will welcome that.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask.

Accommodation
I live in a single family house in a 1/2 acre of land. You will get a private room with a shared bathroom.
What else ...
The mountains are 45 min away and the dessert 1.5 hrs away. There are wineries and microbreweries all over San Diego County. There are countless of cultural activities and a lot of free events every weekend.
You are going to need your own transportation. Please check local rent a car companies for pricing. If you are younger than 25, they are going to charge you extra and some may not want to rent to you.

I spent 10 days at Ana's house, helping her cleaning her front yard and with some gardening. She made sure I didn't work too much and I felt like home. She also provided me with great healthy food and even cooked a few delicious healthy meals when she was at home.
Ana is a great person. She was… read more
Although she wasn't looking for anybody at the time, she responded very fast to our last minute request and invited us to stay in her pretty house.
After showing us where all the tools were, she trusted us to paint her laundry room while she was away at work.
We will never forget your delicious food and your… read more
