Description
I am a teacher, you will live with me, my cat, and my beautiful goldfish in my beautiful home. I did workaway myself in Turkey many years ago and was an international teacher for many years.
Types of help and learning opportunities
Creating/ Cooking family mealsHelp around the houseGeneral MaintenanceCultural exchange and learning opportunities
I live in a fabulous neighborhood where you can walk to many attractions or bus to more. I can help you practice English and share my many years of traveling experience.
Help
I will be recovering from surgery and unable to do household chores or cook fresh meals for two weeks max. I need someone to play with my cat and clean up after him (easy) and keep the house clean. Some shopping and cooking (there is a store 5 minutes walk). No nursing is involved, I just can't bend or reach for two weeks so I need an extra pair of hands. I hope you can spend most of your days and nights exploring my fair city, the work should be not more than and hour or two per day, and days off to explore the coast if you like. It's a short stay but enough time to get a feel for Portland. Likely June.
