Description
Hi! My name is Randy. I'm a single, former USAian now a permanent resident of Mexico. I have a large house and yard with a pool (open April to November), 250 meters from the ocean. I've lived in Belgium, Germany, the US and now Mexico. I've worked in or traveled to 45 countries.
Types of help and learning opportunities

Art Projects
Language practice
Help with Eco Projects
Teaching
Gardening

Help around the house
General Maintenance
Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Opportunities to improve your Spanish and or English. My place is located in a small coastal town without much of the touristy stuff. Workers will benefit from interactions with locals and nature. There are several opportunities for volunteering in the local and expat communities.
Help
Looking for help with general maintenance, maybe some minimal painting, mowing, strimming, pool cleaning, other yard tasks and perhaps assistance with the rental house. Nothing too labor-intensive and nothing too demanding. I'm pretty chill.

Cooking is done with gas, no problems unless the tank runs out. Pots, pans, dishes, coffee maker, toaster oven, hot water kettle, and washing machine are also available for use.
