Description
Hi Workawayers!
We are Andrew and Sa'ad. We live in a large, old Victorian house in a well-connected part of East London (Forest Gate on the Elizabeth Line).
We moved in 6 years ago and have just finished restoring and renovating our home; and we have made some amazing friendships on Workaway along the way!
Now that the house project is (nearly!) complete, we are looking for housekeeping and general cleaning help to keep the house running.
We have a single room available for you to stay in with a comfy bed, and a small wardrobe and desk. There is super fast broadband and of course you have access to all the communal areas of our house! If we are a good fit then we would be happy to host you for a few months but would consider shorter stays of 2-4 weeks too. W would be looking for 25 hours help a week (which is about 5 hours of help a day for about 5 days a week), but we are flexible in terms of how to structure that time. What has worked well in the past in workaway in the morning and then you are free to explore and enjoy London!
You will be staying in London - one of the most exciting cities in the world and with the flexible hours you will have opportunity to explore everything in London that interests you!
You'll be living in a mixed Scottish-Pakistani household in a very diverse and exciting part of London. We are keen cooks and if you want to learn how to cook Indian and Chinese food we would be delighted to have you join us! We also rent one of our rooms so we often have travellers from all over the world staying who you can interact with. We also regularly host dinner parties and bbqs with our friends and you'd always be welcome to join us and widen your circle of friends in London!
We have been hosting workawayers for six now and have made wonderful friends many of whom have stayed with us for many months before moving on to their next adventure :)
Please note:
Although workaway is not intended to introduce wokers to employers, and we are not an operating business or company, due to post Brexit regulations Workaway have requested that we offer a wage to those with a right to work in the UK who are offering professional services. We will therefore be willing to offer the London living wage of £12 per hour if you have specific professional skills that our suited to our needs and are looking for paid work. Although Workaway encourages shared meals as a way to enjoy a cultural exchange, if we will be paying a wage, then we would ask Workawayers to be responsible for their own food expenses and make a contribution towards their accommodation. If you are looking for a paid position please do provide us with details of your right to work in the UK, any appropriate qualifications and references as well as your expecations of hours and wage and contribution towards accommodation cost in your initial message so that we can establish your suitability for paid employment. -

Hébergement
We have a single room available for you to stay in with a comfy bed with brand new mattress, and a small wardrobe and desk. There is super fast broadband and of course you have access to all the communal areas of our house!
We often like to cook in the evenings and you would be welcome to join us for dinner. Some of our previous workawayers preferred to do a weekly shop with us for groceries so you're able to prepare and eat what you like to eat at a time of your choosing! -

We're very laid back and social people. We often have friends visiting and are away for weekend trips etc. We would love for you to enjoy your time in London as you please but are always on hand to offer tips and advice!
The house is 5 mins from walk from Forest Gate station which is on the new elizabeth line. You can get to central london in about 30mins by metro or by bike! The house itself is really lovely and we are really enjoying living here even though there are lots of odd jobs that still need doing! -
