Hello! I am from San Diego, California relocated to NOLA now for 13 years. I am a photographer, work photography adventure travel and run a community based arts nonprofit with an emphasis in photography. I've owned a home in New Orleans for 7 years now and continuously need help with small projects. The nonprofit needs help with research, grant-writing and capacity building projects. We can offer everything you want to know about photography!
I've been getting quite a few requests with interest in the non-profit which makes me realize I should try to set up a residency! I wish I could host everyone! If you find another place but would still like to get involved with the photo community in New Orleans.

I have a rich garden with lots of herbs and hopefully veggies! I have a music room with a guitar, ukulele, bass, keyboard, tons of books and photo books, old film cameras and a lot of photography knowledge to pass along if I’m home.
The space: My house is a duplex but I'm renting one side since coronavirus. You would have your own room with a private entrance on my side of the house where I stay in the other room when I’m home. It’s a shared bathroom.
I'm also down to practice Spanish.

I can connect you to a photo community. I can teach about photography or about running an arts nonprofit if I’m available but I’m not always around. I can definitely connect you to a community that can teach those things. You'd have access to instruments, books and a garden.

My wifi is the best New Orleans can offer.... but that's still the best New Orleans can offer. I have worked from home for the past 10 years so when I'm home I also need the wifi working. Cox has a monopoly in New Orleans so they dgaf There is a desk in the bedroom or a kitchen table or a coffee table or a lounge. Whatever you prefer. I usually post up at the kitchen table.
This would require some pre-arranging. You can possibly park it at the motel parking lot next door or at my sister's house behind me. Or it can be parked in front of the house for up to 3 days.
This host has said they are willing to accept those travelling with a pet.
