Language learning and cultural immersion!
Description
Hello! My name is Jake Sachs, I'm a student from the U.S., and I love trying new things, seeing new places, and learning new languages. I've spent a year in Germany, and have traveled to several other European countries, and I would like to return to spend time this Summer in some places I haven't been before (looking for Vienna and Lisbon/Portugal).
I speak English and German fluently and would love to practice my German in your home. I would be happy to do work around the house, with kids, help with work-from-home responsibilities, and more in return for food, a place to sleep, and experiencing your culture!
I love to read, write, sing, listen to music, have long talks over coffee, and learn languages and want to share what you love to do as well. My goal is to completely immerse myself in your culture and learn everything I can while sharing what I have to offer as well! If this interests you, please reach out :)
