Description
Hi I'm Catriona & live in Newport RI USA in a Victorian house from 1899 with my dogs Louis—a 11.5yr old Beagle Mini Pincher mix aka Meagle & RBGLC—aka Ruthie a 2 year old 'supposed' Blue Heeler.
My house is opposite one of Newport's Historic Mansions (also know as summer cottages), currently being used in the TV series The Gilded Age but I'm on the less expensive side of the road ;)
I would love one or two people (I have a twin room or a double room) to come help me get my house back in shape after some tenants left it in a mess. Painting, gardening, patio installation, etc.
>>> It's a cultural exchange so not suitable for digital nomads. <<<
Drivers license a plus.
5 x vaccinated here & would appreciate the same. I can happily help you get additional Free Vaccines in RI.
No smokers & not 420 friendly.
If you have any questions... just ask.
=>>>> If you are Ukrainian I am more than happy to host you if you can get here. <<<<=

She is respectful and kind. She knows how to treat workawayers and how to be a host. Accommodation was good, living there is like to live at home!
