Greetings beautiful people,
This missive comes from the sunny coast of Portugal where I currently reside. I retired early and quickly decided that retirement is not for me. So what's next? Hopefully, volunteering with you.
What I can contribute:
1. Cooking for the masses, where's my apron?
2. These hands were meant for cleaning so give me a broom and mop.
3. Practicing English, let's talk.
4. Feeling unraveled, I can teach sewing.
5. Got to move your body, let's dance, walk, exercise or play soccer.
6. Need a hug? I'm very experienced.
7. Mental math is my thing. I'd like to assist in math classes and games.
8. Anything else that is needed, you can count on me.
I am a fit, healthy, energetic, open minded , happy lover of life. My good attitude has carried me through many of life's challenges. I embrace hard work and being part of a team. I am willing to do whatever job needs to be done.
In the last ten years I have volunteered with Habitat for Humanity in Nepal, El Salvador, Fiji, and Costa Rica. I also was a finance director for an orphanage in Haiti and ran a soup kitchen in Colorado.
I eagerly await your response. Let's do something amazing together.
