Hi, my name is Bruce.

I CAN HOST VISITORS THROUGHOUT 2023 & 2024

I know this is a difficult time for everybody. Let's stay safe! We are in the middle of the pandemic and 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.

Oportunidades de intercâmbio cultural e aprendizado
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.
Ajuda
I already have a full-time caregiver (Kim, my wife), and I am looking for friendship and very light help around the house.
Basic tasks you could help with:
Keep hands clean because I have a lowered immune system. With Covid 19 it's very important.
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 and food :-)
Drive me around to different places. We can explore together.
Just be available to help me during the day.
Some yard help but not much because we don’t water and live in a drought state.
I’m very political so indulge me while I talk about politics.
I will give you more details as we get to know each other.
Idiomas
Inglês: Fluente
Acomodação
We live in a 3 bedroom house and you have your own bedroom and share a bathroom.

I live in the San Francisco Bay Area, so the possibilities are limitless.

I’m super grateful for the time that I got to spend with Bruce and Kim! I unfortunately had to cut my time with them short because of a personal emergency but the few weeks that I spent with them were great. They are so welcoming and easy to be around.

Nina is sweet, lovable, intelligent, caring and kind.
She was always looking for some work in order to help out. Never a moment of hesitation to come up to a challenge and complete that.

Bruce helped me out from an awkward situation and let me stay with him and Kim for 2 weeks besides he already had a helper at that time. So that is just one example how big his heart is. I enjoyed staying with Kim and Bruce so much, it was not easy to leave. I also felt in love with the animals, especially Takoda, the old lady.
