Description
Hi everyone! My name is Alena, I’m 36 years old and my daughter Dariia(nickname Dasha) is 12 years old. We have been living in and around Beaverton, OR for 8 years and are thinking about moving to Florida. I would like to try to live in a hot climate before moving to see if it suits us. Also, a change of state is a change of activities. And I would like to see what it’s in Florida!:) In our state , we do a lot of hiking, go camping almost every weekend in the summer, go mountain biking and snowboarding in the winter. Our family is very active! We love to spend time together! We travel a lot, often by car (it is convenient)! We are very social and inquisitive, easy-going and have a lot of interests! I didn't say I have a husband, but he can't come with us for such a long time because of work. Let me add a little more about us. I speak English intermediately and Russian fluently. Dasha speaks both languages fluently. My daughter is a cheerful and positive girl. When I told her about my plans, she was very happy and began to pester me with requests that I text to the hosts faster. Her school recommended volunteering for various organizations on summer weekend. And I think Workaway is the perfect place to do that. I work for a cleaning company and can easily help with housework. I also have gardening skills. We are not afraid of hard work and easily learn new skills, so we are open for any other work ;) We will be very happy to meet new interesting people, help you with your projects and of course get to know Florida better!:))))
