- LGBTQ and POC affirming spaces
- Covid safety: we are fully vaccinated and would prefer to be in a household that is also vaccinated
- Opportunities for language and cultural exchange!

What makes us a good volunteers!
- Our passion, dedication, and work ethic! Being welcomed into your home is an honor and a privilege and we treat the experience as such.
- We can cook for/with you!
- Low alcohol use and no drug use or smoking
- 4 years of experience doing Workaway, housesitting, and other relevant volunteer work
