Description
Built a new house and would like to adorn a blank wall with a jungle painting, plus potentially some light maintenance work or child sitting. We are located 15 minutes drive from about 6 beautiful beaches.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We live in a jungle near to the island's major road in a sparcely populated area. There is a village nearby. Every weekday I drive our son to school so there are opportunities there as well. On the weekends, weather permitting, we like to go to the beach or a special swimming pool resort. Occasionally we are invited to birthday parties. Filipinos are very friendly and hospitable people. We like to go to bed by around 6, watch Netflix and I usually fall asleep by around 9pm, get up before the Crack of dawn, happy to occasionally party with you but generally not, so not a position for a night owl. Good if you are a happy reader, or you can use our starlink for free. Glamping tent is fully supplied with electricity and outdoor toilet.

Help
As stated, mostly need a blank wall painted with a mural. Can take your time and stretch it out over a month.
Languages
Languages spoken

French: Intermediate
Spanish: BeginnerThis host offers a language exchange
Lived in Bulgaria for two years and Croatia for a while and have found I can basically communicate with all Slovaks, such as Russian and Ukrainian. Would love to teach son native French (sorry, not Quebecois). Wife speaks Tagalog, Ilongo and basic Spanish.
Accommodation
Glamping tent with bunkbed designed as toy room for the kids, with nearby toilet and shower.
Two hours a day of work is enough, so 10 hours a week, with two days off. They would stay in the big glamping tent, have an outdoor kitchen based on bbq (they would buy their own food to cook), and outdoor toilet with shower. If we feel comfortable enough with them we can make an arrangement to let them use the kitchen in our house.
What else ...
Ideally a lax two hours a day in exchange for accommodation, we do not provide food but there is an outdoor roof covered bbq kitchen and perhaps you could use our indoor kitchen if we feel comfortable enough with you. Our house is like an open studio flat with big terrace. Ideal for a casual person to spend about a month working at a slow, leisurely pace. Jungle drawing is meant to camouflage our house from the main road. Some of your requested help might be to interact with our children so we can work, or you can help around the house in different ways if you like.
