    Hello travelers!

    My name is Eugenio. I'm Russian but I live in Concepción, Chile. I love traveling, adventures, and connecting with nature. I've volunteered in various places in South America in the past, and now I need help with my own project.
    I make Russian food like empanadas, pancakes, and other dishes that I usually sell at markets or from my home.

    It's 5 hours a day. Working hours aren't fixed. Sometimes I need a little help in the morning and a little in the afternoon.

    Two days off per week. One of the days off is Monday (but if it rains or the weather is bad on Monday, it can be another day), and you can choose the other.

    Three meals are included (breakfast, lunch, and dinner). Sometimes I cook, sometimes I give you the ingredients and you cook for us. I'm not vegetarian. If you don't eat any meat, it would be a little difficult for us to live together.

    In your free time, you can explore the surrounding areas and hidden gems of Concepción. I could give you some tips on exploring more interesting places in the city. Believe me, I know quite a bit. There's everything here: beaches, hills, museums, theaters, and so on. Also, if our schedules work together, we could go for a walk.

    VERY IMPORTANT. Since my place isn't very big, to ensure we have a pleasant and trusting living situation, I'd prefer to have a video call so we can get to know each other better before making a decision. I don't speak English very well, so it would be fantastic if you had at least a basic understanding of Spanish.

    ¡Hola viajeros!

    Mi nombre es Eugenio. Soy de ruso pero vivo en Chile en Concepción. Me encanta viajar, aventuras y conexión con la naturaleza. En el pasado he hecho voluntariado en distintos lugares de Sudamérica y ahora necesito ayuda en mi propio proyecto.
    Me dedico a elaborar comida rusa como empanadas, panqueques y otros platos que vendo generalmente en las ferias o en mi casa.

    Son las 5 horas diarias. Las horas de trabajo no son fijos. A veces necesito un poco ayuda en la mañana y un poco de tarde.
    Dos días a la semana libres. Uno de los días libres es lunes (pero sí el lunes llueve o mal clima puede ser otro día) y el otro lo puedes elegir tú.

    Tres comidas incluidas (desayuno, almuerzo, cena). A veces cocino yo, a veces te doy ingredientes y tú cocinas para nosotros. NO soy vegetariano. Si tú no comes nada de carne sería un poco complicada nuestra convivencia.

    En tiempo tu tiempo libre tú puedes conocer alrededores y rincones de Concepción. Te podría dar unos datos para recorrer lugares más interesantes de la ciudad. Créeme yo conozco bastante. Acá hay de todo: playas, cerros, museos, teatros y etc. Además, si coincidimos en el horario podríamos salir dar una vuelta juntos.

    MUY IMPORTANTE. Dado que mi casita no es grande, para garantizar nuestra convivencia agradable y de confianza, prefiero hacer una videollamada para conocernos mejor antes de tomar la decisión. No hablo muy bien el inglés por eso sería fantástico que tú manejaras al menos a nivel básico el español.

    Help

    I need a responsible person to help me clean my small house and cook. Nothing heavy.
    Since I cook for a living, I need someone with cooking experience who loves to cook. I'll teach you how to make some Russian food, and if you'd like, you can teach me how to make some typical dishes from your country.

    If you don't know how to cook, tell me about your experience, and perhaps you can help me with specific tasks (for example, if you know how to repair appliances, sew and mend clothes, do marketing, etc.).

    Necesito una persona responsable que me ayuda con limpieza de mi casita que es chica y en la cocina. Nada de trabajo pesado.
    Ya que me dedico a elaborar la comida, preciso una persona que tiene experiencia en la cocina y ama cocinar. Yo te enseño preparar algo de comida rusa y si quieres me enseñas a preparar algo de comida típica de tu país.


    Si no sabes cocinar, igual cuéntame de tu experiencia y quizás me puedes dar una mano en unas tareas específicas (por ejemplo sabes arreglar electrodomésticos, coser y arreglar la ropa, marketing y etc.).
