                        Petsitting

 

My name is Betty Watson. I live in New York in a little apartment with my two dogs. Today, I want to share my experience of a new application named Petsitting. My dogs’ names are Salvador and Donald. This summer, from the tenth of July to the twenty-second of July, I went to Bolivia with my boyfriend Jimmy. Obviously, I couldn’t take my dogs with me even if I love them. My best-friend told me about a new app named Petsitting which consists in connecting people who need their pets taken care of. At the beginning, I was scared to leave my dogs to someone I don’t know. However, it would have been difficult if I had taken Donald and Salvador with us, especially for Donald who is a little crazy and restless. On top of that, he has a disease so I gave him to a member of the app in order to be cool and relaxed during my holidays. The app guarantees that the members must be qualified people. One day before leaving, I met a lady named Allison. I had a really great time in Bolivia but when I came back I had a really bad surprise. I went to Allison’s house and I found Donald sicker than when I left him. I think that they may not have given Donald his pills every day, I was very angry so I wanted to know what happened during my trip, if Allison did not take care of him, but nobody answered my calls so I don’t recommend the app. I think the members are not qualified people contrary to what the app says.

Presentation of the app "Poo-Ding"

 

Today, May 22nd I have tested a new application, Poo-Ding which comes from England.

At the beginning, I didn't want to use this app but this afternoon when I was in town, I needed to go to the toilet. But there weren't public toilets in sight. So I opened my phone and then I opened the Poo-Ding app. Before using this app you have to create an account. So a mini map appears on your screen and shows you the other users' toilets one hundred meters around you. You choose the nearest toilets and send a request to use them (you have to say how long you will stay). The benefits are:

-It's cleaner than the public toilets

- it's more private

- it allows the owner of the toilets to win "Poo-Points" with which you can win gifts.

But as always there are drawbacks like the fact that you can't use the application without WiFi or 4G and the toilets are not always available. If you use this app the toilets must be cleaned every time. I recommend this app to you very very very much because it could save your life when you need to go poo.

House of Service

 

When I was a student, I had to pay for that expensive rent, so I tested House of Service. Thanks to this website young and old people are able to chat together in order to live together.

Old people give a place to sleep and to eat to students in exchange for home help. Old people will not have to be alone. It’s less expensive than an apartement. It allows young people to eat healthier food than in the canteen. You can’t invite your friends in the house because it’s not yours. The biggest drawback is : you don’t have your own privacy. Personally, I have lived whith Michelle, a small grand-mother who is so cute !;) She is my second mummy as she is the best baker in the world. I slept in a beautiful room, I had my own bathroom and a student room. When I went back home after school the meal was ready !

In exchange for this I did many favors such as going to the market in the morning to buy breakfast, cleaning all the house, and walking in the park with her dogs which are called Tic and Tac. They are so cute. When I left Michelle and her dogs I was really disappointed and so was she. But it was a very good experience !

I will remember it all my life. You may meet an amazing person like Michelle.

XOXO, see you again

 

 

HLF

 

Hello everybody !

Today I’m going to speak about a new organization whose name is HLF. It means Help For Lodging. It consists in travelling all around the world in order to help people in need or homeless people build houses and schools, and to work with them so that they can get food or water.


I have tested this way of travelling from the second of July to the second of August. I went to a little village in Guatemala (it’s useless to tell you the name, you mustn’t know it). We were a group of twenty. We built a school, consequently children were able to learn how to read and how to write. We could also have also built houses but we didn’t have enough time. We planted trees which enabled people to get food. We brought water to the population. We taught English for free. We were able to give them old clothes.

It allows you to travel even if you don’t have a lot of money because you don’t have to pay for lodging or food. You are more engaged in the practises than if you were staying in a hotel. It’s the best way to feel useful and to meet people. Even if it’s free you have to pay for the plane ticket. You may work hard but it’s for a good thing.


I recommend this organization to you because thanks to HLF the earth will be better.


Bye, XOXO
