  Description

  Please check my calendar for availability dates - I am looking for help organizing my closet and cupboards full of art supplies.
  
  I live on my own now that my son is in college
  I'm looking for help for 4-5 hours a day. Whomever I host is welcome to explore Miami. If you're a safe driver, I'm open to letting you use my car. I will supply food, but would appreciate the help with meal preparation or washing dishes, if you're around during mealtimes. I'll give you assignments on a daily basis. There's no rigid schedule - i.e. if you want to explore Miami in the morning and prefer to work in the afternoon or evening, I have no problem with that - as long as the work gets done! My condo is adjacent to the Granada Golf Course that has beautiful banyan trees and is great for runners or for a scenic walk. The apartment building has a sauna and beautiful heated pool.
  Downtown Coral Gables is only 2 blocks away from my home. Workawayers can also download the Freebie app on their phones if they want free transportation anywhere in Coral Gables.

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  I'm a literary agent, so if you've ever pondered or dreamed of writing a book one day, I'll be happy to show you the ropes, as that's my area of expertise. I speak English, Spanish and French fluently, so if you're interested in conversing in any of these languages, I'm open, My French has become somewhat rusty, as I haven't spoken it in years, so I welcome native French speakers!
  Coral Gables has free transportation within the City (called Freebie), although I live within walking distance from Miracle Mile, where all the restaurants and shops are. There are beautiful beaches in Key Biscayne which is a 15 minute drive and in South Beach which is a 20-30 minute drive depending on traffic. I live a few blocks away from historic Venetian pool and a block and next to a beautiful golf course that attracts runners and has some of the largest and most beautiful banyan trees I've ever seen! Oh and my condo has a huge pool area downstairs and a sauna.
