    Description

    Canadian born, Norwegian descent, 80 year old. I am healthy (3 stints in heart) have a Lady friend, ride an E-bike, active social life, recently been studying: Playback Theatre, NVC, and last two years :Listening, coming out of Carl Rogers, ET Gendlin and Allan Rolhfs. I have extensive work with Children in Care of Govt. and 30 years as a balloon-clown.
    I live in Canada, B.C., North Vancouver, close to SeaBus and buses. I have a one-bedroom apartment with a balcony view of harbour and city.  My living space is in the living room. I have rearranged my one bedroom apartment to provide for my son and grandchildren to visit, or for a Workaway. It has a lockable door, Drawers, Closet, Desk, Internet Access and is a quiet, private workspace. Food and Meals: I prepare my meals and leave the sink clean. Workaway to provide their own food, space on shelves and fridge. We may take turns sharing a meal occasionally. I offer the private bedroom, with a shared bathroom and kitchen in exchange for 10 hours of help a week, flexible scheduling . I am seeking a Workaway who can tutor, me, Mac computer literacy, social media and Zoom projects. I have training & experience as an ESL Conversation Tutor. We must have time to interview each other on Zoom, I imagine the person most suited to me seeks a quiet, regular daily routine, non smoker, non drinker, non drugger, and easily self amused, and would also benefit themselves from practicing Canadian-English with a native speaker, West Coast Media dialect.
