Details
Description
We live in a small town in rural Georgia, USA. We have a big backyard with a garden, fire pit and play area for children. Husband, wife, 3 year old son, one year old daughter and one dog live here together. We are happy, open minded, artistic, and kind people. We like to have fun. We love to travel. We keep a clean house (or try to).
We are looking to trade the large, private bonus room with a private bathroom/entire upstairs level of our home for help with housework and cooking.
Types of help and learning opportunities
Art Projects
Gardening
Animal Care
Creating/ Cooking family meals
Help around the house
Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
I like to create, paint, decorate and cook so if you’re in to that stuff I can probably teach you some cool things.
I’m really in to gardening too so I can teach you a lot about that. My husband speaks a good bit of Spanish and would be easily able to help teach English. My step mother speaks German so if our guest happened to be from a German speaking country, they could easily communicate.
Also, I can offer free haircuts/ color because I’m a trained cosmetologist and I worked in a salon for 13 years. My husband is very creative as well. He plays guitar and several other instruments and he can teach you to play! My 4 year old is very social and loves to play. He could easily keep another young child entertained (if our guest had a child).

Help
We are very busy parents and we would love to host a person who could help us with a few household chores like cooking, cleaning, organization and some laundry. Our ideal guest would be like a female who is kind, energetic, patient and loves children. We can host a single mother of one or (maybe) 2 children. Age does not matter. We would love someone who would like to help us learn their language!
Frequently Asked Questions:
1. How much time is expected: 5 hours a day helping with housework.
2. How meals and food will happen: You can use our kitchen any time. I’ll also put a mini fridge in the bonus room if you’d like.
3. Internet/Phone rules: Unlimited WiFi.
4. Public transport info: We live in an area where Uber and Lyft and other ride shares are available.
5. Things to see and do locally: Beautiful countryside, close to Atlanta , lots of great restaurants and entertainment nearby.
6. Can you accommodate families/children/animals? We can accommodate a single female with or without children. No animals unfortunately because our dog does not play well with others.

What else ...
You can use my minivan when I’m not using it if we establish trust and comfort and you have a driver’s license. If not, ride share services are available in our area. We live near many parks and forests. There are plenty of activities like hiking, fishing and other recreational options. There is a cute little town square with shops and restaurants within walking distance of our house. Covington is about 45 minutes from Atlanta airport. Anything you could want or need is within very close distance by foot or car. Interesting fact: Covington is where they filmed the show “Vampire Diaries”.
