Speaks

I live in a Spanish-speaking country and am fluent enough to not need help with language. Studied French in high school and would like to speak it, but all my verbs now come out as Spanish! ☹️

About me

Retired social worker/therapist. Trained in Equine Assisted Therapy. Life-long love of horses and all animals, as well as plants and gardening. I am honest, caring, respectful, and cooperative; serious, but with a good sense of humor.

Preferred location

I am a retired North American social worker/therapist living in Ecuador, interested in seeing more of Europe and helping with plants and animals. My schedule is very flexible! I enjoy learning about other cultures and the natural history of regions new to me. The little calendar below doesn't work, so I will say any time after Jan., 2017.

Skills

I have a farm background and have experience with sheep, goats, fowl, horses, fruit trees and gardening. I enjoy making things look nicer and work better. I am not able to work hard all day any longer, nor do any heavy lifting or bending for long. I speak English and Spanish and would like to improve in French. I am starting self-study of Danish. I like to cook, but am no gourmet.

Additional info

I am not a smoker, don't have a drivers license, I am not a vegetarian and I have no allergies.

I do not eat wheat or most grains.
