  • Description

    Description

    In the center of Guanajuato, I purchased a home. This is part of the project to improve the community and house.

    I believe in the power of community and helping the community where you live.

    You would help with painting, taking care of the plants, cleaning, sweeping. General items around the house.

    I give space for creativity and risk taking. Volunteers have planted seeds for the garden, painted murals, painted wine bottles, and made food bowls for a pet organization I am part of.
