Description
Hi, I am Rose. Originally from Goa, India. Been living on the outskirts of Amsterdam for 8 years.
Working in a tech company in Amsterdam.
While I'm pretty handy around the house I always seem to be short on time. I got a new house recenly in Zaandam and can't find the time to do a few touch ups. I'm looking for some help maintaining the place, and painting the hallways and living room. A little landscaping in my 3 sq mtr front and back garden.
I can offer you the spare room to stay, I can also give you tips on sights to visit and restaurants to eat.
Types of help and learning opportunities
Gardening
DIY and building projects
Help around the house
General Maintenance
Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
I'd also be happy to share my knowledge on the Amsterdam area and the Netherlands in general. As I am from India, would be happy to cook a nice Biryani for you :)
And share knowledge of different cultures and languages. Also the experience of living as an Expat in Netherlands.
Help
I'm looking for someone who can paint (neatly) and do the preparatory tasks, like sanding, taping, etc. The stairway, hallways and living room needs sanding and painting.
Another task is the landscaping gardening in a small space.
Languages spoken
English: Fluent
Accommodation
I have a spare room which has a comfortable bed. The room will be private and WiFi is included but you'll have to share the bathroom and toilet. I'm a decent cook, so I can provide dinner on some evening when I am working from home.
What else ...
The city centre is a short 5 minute walk from my house, the station a 15 minute walk. There's a bus stop around the corner which will take you to Amsterdam or Zaandam train station. There's some tourist sights in Zaandam (Zaanse Schans windmills) and tons to see in and around Amsterdam. If I'm around I'll be happy to drop you off by car to anywhere nearby.
