  • Description

    Description

    I am a retired teacher and my husband is a photographer. We have some physical limitations so we will need some extra help to maintain the garden , paint and clean. We could also use part time help with childcare for our 2 grandchildren, ages 1 and 6.

    We have an apartment that is available during the summer months of June- September. We also can accommodate last minute volunteers if our apartment is not booked.

    Looking for an independent, mature couple who are able to rent a car for their own transport.
