Beschreibung
Covid 19 has changed so much. At this time I only accept fully vaccinated and boosted workawayers who are willing to provide a copy of their vaccination record. I hope this will change in the not too distant future.
I am a hospitable, mature woman, living in a inner ring suburb of Cleveland, Ohio. I am mother of 5 adult children with many grandchildren. I am a gourmet cook in many cuisines, enjoy classical music and jazz. My interests are varied from the arts, science, culture, language, etc. Before Covid I volunteered for several performing arts organizations. I have returned to volunteering but not as often.
In my professional life I was adjunct professor of photography, both analog and digital. I also had my own portrait studio until my retirement in 2011.

I am a retired adjunct professor of photography and am fairly knowledgeable about plants and gardening and would happy to share any of that knowledge.
I am an accomplished and creative cook in many cuisines and would be happy to teach those skills to another, happy to accomodate any dietary needs/desires and create menus around those needs/interests.
I live near top cultural and medical institutions including a vibrant public theater (CPT), Cleveland Museum of Art, Cleveland Orchestra, the second largest theater district in the US, University hospital, MetroHealth and Cleveland Clinic hospital systems near by.
Lake Erie is awesome. As are: Cleveland Metro Parks, Cleveland Zoo, Botanical Gardens and Aboredum, Aquarium.
Cleveland is a culturally diverse city with lots of rich experiences in other cultures from the Maltz Museum of Jewish Heritage to Asia town, Little Italy, a Polish Opera company to mention but a few.

I am a mature active woman.
I volunteer at local theaters and music organizations and therefore occasionally away evenings. You may wish to volunteer or may take advantage of vouchers I may have for various performances.
As previously mentioned, my home is quiet. It is not my practice to have television or radio on. I use head phones when listening to mostly NPR. I do practice piano.
I live near top cultural and medical institutions, Cleveland Museum of Art, Cleveland Orchestra, University, Metro and Cleveland Clinic to name but a few.
Lake Erie is awesome, Cleveland Metro Parks, Cleveland Zoo, Aquarium, Lake Farm Park, Chapin Forest, Amish communities near by.
Good public transportation but am willing to provide transportation when planned in advance.
