Description
FEMALES ONLY PLEASE. I am a single senior lady living in Brampton Ontario. Brampton is a very diverse busy City an hour from Toronto and a little over an hour from Niagara Falls. I would be happy to take you to visit both of those locations, and other points of interest. My home is all on one level, however my daughter has her own suite in the basement.
I am mainly in a wheelchair following back surgery that went wrong May 8, 2025 and could really use some help around my house. I am hoping to sell my house next year and I have a lot of stuff to sort and purge.
I would like someone with a driver's license willing to drive my car and load my wheelchair in. I would like to go to the gym 3 times a week, and to fun workshops and live performances. You would need to be willing to drive me and participate.
I speak English and French and would be happy to have a cultural Exchange. I would like to learn Spanish and Mandarin.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
I love to learn about different cultures. It is important to me to be sensitive to the diversity of people in my city. I have always felt that we can all learn so much from each other if we are only open and non-judgemental. I learned a lot about that in my career as a nurse.
I speak French and English and would be happy to do language exchange with Spanish or Mandarin speakers.
Help
You can help prepare meals, sorting and purging, general home help and be my personal driver. Though I am in a wheelchair you will not be required to do any personal care or lifting.

Languages

Chinese (Mandarin): BeginnerThis host offers a language exchange
I'm very fascinated by languages so I'm interested in learning yours ( especially Spanish or Mandarin) and sharing mine (English and Canadian French).
Accommodation
You will have a private room with a queen bed, dresser drawers, bedside table, closet. There is one shared bathroom, and the rest of the house is shared. It is a modest but comfortable home on a quiet Street.

What else ...
I could take you to visit Toronto and Niagara Falls and other nearby points of interest. I love live theatre,concerts, multi cultural festivals and comedy shows and because I am disabled, I have a special pass that allows me to take a companion to many of the theatres and attractions for free. and if we were going somewhere that required a lot of walking, I might be dependent on you to push me in my wheelchair. However I have a motor that attaches to my wheelchair (see the picture) and allows me greater independent mobility.
There is decent public transportation.
