I sometimes travel alone for temporary gigs, and would enjoy spending some of my free hours with other people. If you are visiting my hometown of San Francisco, I would love to show you some sights and hang out around town.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I would be happy to offer any of the following during the the evenings and weekends:
-friendly conversation in English, Spanish, and/or French.
-writing, editing, and research.
-tutoring in written and spoken English. I am a native speaker who has done graduate-level writing in English.
-cooking (especially stir fries, spicy lentil/rice/veggie pot, soups, tacos, loaded baked potatoes, pasta with veggies, fruit pies, brownies, chocolate chip cookies, more desserts).
-teaching you how to crochet (if you let me know ahead of time so I can bring some yarn for you).
-pet sitting. I LOVE walking dogs and playing with, cuddling, and petting any cat, dog, or other pet. I grew up with dogs, and frequently walked our family's Golden Retriever/Lab mix, Jerry, and our Beagle mix, Lucky. I have been a cat sitter for vacationing neighbors.
