  Description

  Hi, my name is Bruce.
  
  I CAN HOST VISITORS THROUGHOUT 2024
  
  I know this has been a difficult time for everybody. Let's stay safe! We need to be aware of our surroundings. Follow CDC guidelines and, of course, always care for others near you. We use masks and social distance. Kim and I are vaccinated.
  
  PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME. Lucky me! Thank you workaway!
  I'm looking for someone energetic, intelligent in a wonderful town Walnut Creek, San Francisco Bay Area.
  
  I broke my neck when I was 18 years old and have been in a wheelchair ever since. After breaking my neck, I went back to school and received a couple of degrees. I'm looking for someone energetic, intelligent, and ready to take on a challenge. It's important that whomever I choose has a good sense of humor and can understand sarcasm. I'm also a liberal, and I am concerned about politics, along with many other things. If you'd like to know more about me and what assisting me entails, I would be happy to provide you with that information :) by the way, I live 28 miles East of San Francisco in a town called Walnut Creek. The San Francisco Bay Area is a wonderful place to live with a great diversity of people and ideas.
  I live in a small three-bedroom house outside of San Francisco with Kim (my wife), Bennett (my service dog) and Edna (the cat who thinks she is a dog), and Scarlett (some version of a siamese cat).
  
  I hope to hear from you.
  Bruce
  
  PS. I can only accommodate one person at a time because my house is small.
  PSS. Vegetarian and vegan friendly.

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  I hope we will both benefit from our shared experience. Teach each other things that neither of us knows. Sometimes the intangibles are quite valuable, and I know that my experience has been everyone has something to teach, and by observing, we can all learn together.

  Aide

  I already have a full-time caregiver (Kim, my wife), and I am looking for friendship and help around the house
  Basic tasks you could help with:
  Vacuum the kitchen and living room when needed. I have 2 service dogs and 2 cats.
  Keep the kitchen clean and help with laundry.
  Provide me with water, food and anything I cannot do on my own. I am paralyzed from the neck down. :-) I was once told that helping me is like helping yourself twice. That was what my 1st helper said.
  If you want to explore you can drive me around to different places. We can explore together or you can do that on your own.
  I will need your help during the day.
  Some yard is necessary. It is not often because during the summer there is no water outside and the wild grass.
  I’m very political so indulge me while I talk about politics. I'm left leaning regarding this topic. It's important to be on the same page here because I am passionate about everybody's rights and of course the environment.
