We are a Japanese family, living in a convenient location only 3-8 mins walking from 145th Street subway station/bus with a lot of groceries, pharmacy, Starbucks, restaurants, parks, library, etc.
most of the time, I live with my 1 kid (9yrs old) and 2 cats. My mother who lives close by came to my home on weekday daytime to help with my house chores.
My older 2 kids go to university and live in the college dorm (20 years old and 18 years old) and come home on holiday and their school break to spend time with family and friends in NYC.
The room is beautiful with a twin-size bed. New air conditioning, bed mattress, and carpet.
The kitchen with juice mixer, cooking stove, microwave, air fryer, rice cooker, and coffee maker.
The bathroom and shower are shared with the family. We will provide a shower towel, toothbrush, hair shampoo, and conditioner.
The dining and living room has a large whiteboard, a world map, a printer, and a piano to play.
The hallway has a small gym place for you to use the bench for weight lifting, weight lifting, and exercise bikes.
We prefer to be a host family for the students who are studying at professional school/ language school/ university/ college who pursue dream and have a future vision.
Looking forward to being your host, feel free to reach out to me.
