Description
** Hi I’m looking for a female workawayer to come stay with me in jan, preferably from jan 10 onwards dates are flexible and can be discussed.
This is due to me going through some health issues that (dizziness and fatigue mostly) which are luckily almost over but I can use some help ☀️
I am looking for someone that is calm and reliable.
The help is to start sorting out and packing up since I am moving in March most likely.
Send me a message if you are interested to stay, I will have a phonecall with you to have a feel if we are a good match. Thank you
My name is Wendy, I’m 38 , living in the centre of Rotterdam,
formerly with my dog Rizla (16)
a Jack Russel/Chihuahua
🌿🌿My sweet dog Rizla passed away 16-05-2024
Thank you so much to all the people who came stay with me to help me care for my beautiful dog. It has so been appreciated and he had a lot of fun meeting all of you <3 🌿🌿
Since 2 years I have my own creative business in gardening & pressed flower art which I sell from home, online, in shops and on markets.
I live right outside the centre of the city, public transport is nearby and even by walking would take only 10minutes to the centre. Renting a bike would be a good idea (try donkey republic, they are cheap and have bikes all around the city. I can give you a code for a free ride!)
I love being outside though and there is a big lake nearby which is my second home.
Prefered stay is from monday-friday, since weekends are busy around my house and I really need some rest, specially on saturday
I prefer to host one workawayer at a time
• Breakfast is not included, please bring your own
God is very important to me and quiet time with him aswell. Usually I attend church Sunday afternoons

Accommodation
Room in the house
The house has 2 floors. It's very bright and and you'll have a room behind the kitchen. During the day it functions as a daylight extention to the kitchen and I have to get some things there some times, in the evenings it's all yours
I sleep around 10/11pm and wake up around 9am. Since there is no door between my room and the front door (just stairs) I kindly ask my guests to be back at 11pm latest.
We will share the shower )the shower is on my floor) kitchen and living room.
No smoking or shoes in the house please, thanks for understanding
What else ...
Trams and busses are 2 min walking away. Central station is 20min walking.
There's lots of nice coffee places in the surroundings, restaurants alike, and a super nice farmersmarket on Saturdays.
I live pretty close to a big lake and forrest (Kralingse plas). So eventhough you're in the city some nature is still close by.
My fridge is usually full with veggies, but if you like fish or chicken can provide that aswell once a week. Maybe it's good to mention I eat gluten free as much as possible and you should take care of your own breakfast.

She made the most beautiful pictures for me and helped me to paint a wall. Dispite me having an ear infection the entire time she was here we got along well and spend time together and apart.
She's a very positive person and I enjoyed seeing her outlook on life 🌼
All the best to you Valentina and hope to see you again… read more

Creative and sweet people
Amelie is very intuitive and attuned.
I was in a period where it went up and down alot with my and my dogs health and couldn't really host for a while, just when I thought it would be nice to have some help for the next days, she wrote me and arrived the same day, she wrote me at exactly the right time.
We had so much fun,… read more
It was very easy going and i enjoyed everyday! Thank you Wendy and hopefully see you next time❤️🌱
It was so much fun having Eleonora around. Probably because we have some shared norms and values and shared alot of interests, so we had loads to talk about.
She's such a warm kind person and did everything with care and attention.
It was super easy to devide tasks and make a planning day by day. She… read more

She's on her way to become a very good cook! So keep practicing Giulia!
