    Description

    Hello! I am a 67-year-old man, a retired artist and teacher. My children travel the world like you, so now I live alone in my house, very calm. I lead a healthy and happy life, I like to learn something new every day. I always preferred to have a lot of time than a lot of money. Now my house needs maintenance, and I think it's good to share this space and work together on it. I hope life gives us a good meeting!

    Hola! soy un hombre de 67 años, artista y docente jubilado. Mis hij@s viajan por el mundo como tú, así que ahora vivo solo en mi casa, muy tranquilo. Llevo una vida sana y alegre, me gusta aprender algo nuevo cada día. Siempre preferí tener mucho tiempo antes que mucho dinero. Ahora mi casa necesita mantenimiento, y creo que es bueno compartir este espacio y trabajar junt@s en ella. Ojalá la vida nos regale un buen encuentro!
