    Description

    Hello,
    We are a family of five. A Turkish couple with a 16 months old baby (January 2025) and two cats. We have been living in Lisbon since October 2023.
    We need help for cooking to be able to organize our family life in a healthier way. Both parents are working long hours and no proper time for preparing healthy meals. Anyone who is confident about healthy cooking, you are more than welcome! :)
    This is a voluntary work and no payment is offered.
    We live in a nice flat in the heart of Lisbon and we'd be happy to give you suggestions about what to do in the city/ where to visit etc.
    Looking forward to meeting you!

    We'd need you to prepare healthy portions for our lunch and dinners during the weekdays. Taking into consideration that we have a small baby, we really need healthy eating habits. Apart from cooking, if you have a yoga/pilates teaching background and we can practice together two or three times a week, it would be amazing!
