July Network of Nice Hook Ups!

Another month, another opportunity to create some good karma!
Here's the deal:
1) Look through the hook-up requests.  Can you help someone?  Email them.
2) Look through the hook-up offers.  Can someone help you?  Email them.
3) Send a gracious, lovely thank-you email to anyone kind enough to take time out of their day to help you.  Cause you're not an a-hole.

I need a hook up!

I need to let a room in Bristol
I'm moving to Bristol and need to find somewhere to live asap! If you have a room to let which will be available by 16th August and think you can accommodate a lovely Welsh girl, please get in touch!

I'm looking for a French-speaking penpal
I was in France recently (in Paris zone) and I loved it. I really would like to have some kind of penpal (perhaps e-mail and occasionally some letters?) who speaks french. Although I understand it quite well I've a hard time to speak/write it. Being one week in France helped me a little bit but it's still a long way.

I'd love to make friends in Amsterdam!
I'm a 26 year-old Australian expat living in Amsterdam with my best friend and loving it! But what I would also love is to meet some new people who I can have an occasional Heineken and a laugh with. It really doesn't matter if you're a local or another expat, as long you you don't mind splitting a plate of bitterballen with me, it's all good.

I need to know about getting signed to a label!

My husband has been hitting the streets busking and taking on free shows in our city, but we’d love to get signed to a label and take up music for a living, so anyone who can help critique his style, website, music, etc (or even better – provide encouragement in the way of comments and fans) would be greatly appreciated! He performs original alternative pop rock in the vein of Bush, Blink 182, and Counting Crows and we'd love your advice!

I’d like to talk to a Psychologist, Counselor, Career Counselor, or Life Coach of any kind.

I’m interested in working in the counseling field and I’d love to talk to someone about graduate school, job opportunities, pay, or other possibilities in the field. I have a bachelor’s degree in psychology but have been unsure about where I’d like to put my efforts career-wise. I know for sure I want to help people and work with them to better their lives and I would love some guidance on how to pursue that path. Thank you so much :)

I want to know about France
I am studying abroad from September-May this year in Aix-en-Provence, France. I would LOVE if anyone could give me 1) advice about international travel, 2) packing tips for studying abroad, 3) things to do in Aix, 4) cool places to travel in France and Europe generally, 5) tips for budgeting for this kind of long and travel-intensive trip, 6) tips for balancing schoolwork and all the attractions of studying abroad, or anything else that might be relevant for my trip! I’m also going to be travelling around England, Scotland, and Ireland in June, after my year is finished, so if you have any other tips for these areas I would also appreciate that!

I need to know about business solutions and statistics
I am a 23 year old University of Minnesota graduate who majored in Journalism and Global Studies who has just come to the shocking realization that I lack the critical thinking and data analysis skills I need to pursue my dream job. My idea to resolve this problem is to take undergraduate courses in statistics - despite the fact that I have never been confident in my mathematical abilities. If you use mathematical models to produce business solutions/have a solid statistics background, please let me pick your brain for advice! Love to this blog and its community forever!

I can give you a hook up!

I can be your blogger pal/proofreader/pep talk giver

I'm an enthusiastic blogger who is just starting out and wants to help anyone else who needs a hand. Getting over the learning curve of blogging is difficult, so if you need accountability, proofreading or a pep talk, I'm your girl.

I can give you a free tarot reading
Hello! My name is Isis and I live in Ithaca, NY. I have been reading since high school, but mostly for friends and family. Now that I'm starting my own tarot business I would love to kick it off with some good karma from the Network of Nice! I have three decks for you to choose from. Donations accepted, reviews appreciated :)

I can help you prepare for an audition.
I've run a student theatre company for the last two years and I'm a community theatre veteran. I've gone on and sat through tons of auditions, so I know they're tough and I know a good one when I see one. I'm available to give thorough, practical audition advice to amateurs and beginner actors, everything from what to wear to song and/or monologue selection to how to make a lasting impression on the production team. I'll even help you do a mock Skype audition and give you feedback!

I can tell you about being a massage therapist
What's required to practice massage, how to avoid creepers, how to establish yourself as a legitimate business and how to introduce other people to the awesomeness! Massage is a wonderful thing for your physical and mental health- helping your body function better and even relieving symptoms of depression (true story) I have been a self employed massage therapist for about a year now and I'd be happy to show you the rope!
