What else ...
I am Deaf which means I do not hear and speak. I use sign language. But no worries, I gesture very well and I get along with people well. Communicating through paper and pen or texting would be fine too.
Ps. I've taught basic ASL classes before so I am willing to teach some stuff :)

Hi Simar & family!
I stayed with them for a month in Punjab at their home that was a beautiful and a safe place to be at. There were numerous of things to see around; temples, parks, markets and such. The cultural difference was interesting to learn and there were new things to learn from time to time. I had the pleasure of helping the poor and… read more

My experience with Bright was great, was happy to have exchanged stories and cultures. I got to see different places in Mumbai and got to be explained of its history. I enjoyed learning Bright's ideas in making films and such. I would love to meet and work with you again in the future :) I am happy to either just go out and enjoy the trip or help… read more

When you are oblivious of some cultures, which exist around you, but never noticed. And then you meet her. :) It was an experience of a life time, and knowledge for the soul. She is active and passionate. And it was a delight to know her. Will love to spend more days with her, for own benefits. (I sound selfish now :) ) Meet you soon, somewhere… read more

I had several days to spare in the area and found this place interesting. The farm & family welcomed me into their house right away and I had the pleasure of knowing each one of them. There are different things and tasks you can do around the house, I was thrilled to experience milking the sheep for the first time. Thanks once again :)

Shea is a very bright and energetic young woman. She was a lot of fun to have around, and had no difficulty in diving right into whatever tasks we were doing that day. We would love to have her back anytime! :)

Shea was really enthusiastic and willing to do anything asked of her. She undertook a big painting job and just plugged away at it until her time was up, along with various other jobs with the animals and helping other tasks through the day. It does take some patience to get the task outlined for Shea in having to write it all down, but this is… read more

I just had the opportunity at Gillian's. The time spent there was worth it, I learned several new terms from her, how to use new tools, how to take care of animals in different ways, and more... I miss all of her critters! Gillian has energy, sense of humor, willingness to write down instructions, explanations and such on a paper and pen! :) I… read more

I had this wonderful opportunity to meet the Behncke family and help out briefly. My stay was unfortunately shorter than expected but I enjoyed the new stuff I learned there. They also were very convenient to be with, as a deaf person myself. Nice family, cozy house, cute pets, and great food! I hope to come back for a visit if I am ever in the… read more
