Hello! I am a very busy mom swamped with work, studying and sports and looking for a little help in exchange for a stay in beautiful Split, Croatia. I typically ask my volunteers to stay a minimum of 3 weeks, as it gives us time to get into a routine and get to know each other.
I am looking for self-motivated, active, friendly volunteers. As I mentioned above, I am extremely busy and need volunteers who can step up and take ownership of the few tasks I ask.

Ayuda
My life/schedule is a little crazy with all of the exciting projects I have going on in life so anyone who can help make things a little smoother at home would be really appreciated. I am also looking forward to meeting people and having good company around the house. But for more particulars, I am looking for a few different areas of help:
1) Meal prep: This is the most important task I need help with. I love eating healthfully and having healthy food/snacks readily available to grab on the go. There are a few great markets within walking distance from my place. I need help running to the market to pick up groceries and making healthy meals/snacks to have at the house, so any culinary interest would be a big plus! I believe strongly in the power of food in ones life, and take great care on what I am fueling my body with.
2) Simple house maintenance: I am looking for help with keeping the flat clean, misc tasks to help keep everything fresh and clean! I absolutely believe that when you have a clean, clear space this translates to a clean and clear mind :)
3) Occasional help with fun activities for a very sweet and active 9 year old (creatives very welcome!)
A bonus would be anyone who has a talent or interest in photography!
