Ok, so I know this belongs in Housing (and it's still there), but since the housing group is pretty barren these days and since most of the people browsing that forum aren't looking for nutty housing situations like me, I thought I'd try to re-post here.
Hello sweet Waccos! My name is Dan and I will be working in Healdsburg the next couple months before escaping the country in favor of Istanbul. Since I'm pretty penniless after a few failed Turkish ventures, I thought I'd seek friendly folk here who might be able to offer me a place to set up my tent and rest my weary head after a sunup>sundown kind of day. I'll be leaving on my bike bright and early and getting back pretty late so will be a fully peaceful and non-disruptive figment of your environment. Without further ado, I'll introduce you to my list:
1) I am a no maintenance kind-of guy. I will be working super long hours until about Thanksgiving, so really just need a place to hole up. That is not to say I will be hermetical and you will never see my smiling mug. Should you so desire, I promise to cook you a meal here and there (see: blue cheese quesadillas with caramelized onions; see also: cioppino if I can find affordable ingredients).
2) I have almost no possessions, so can't make a mess in your yard, in your barn, in your chicken coop, wherever you put me.
3) I can teach you card games from all over the world (if that appeals), or how to skip a rock perfectly
4) I am great with kids and animals, and animals' kids. So if you need any help in the evenings, I'm sure I can pitch in for ya.
5) I am not a thief, and I won't steal your heart or your cat (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GlkoQ4bUE5k)
6) I can bring you goodies from Turkey in late February when I will return to the States. I've been doing this for friends and family for the past couple years, and can certainly manage that for you, too!
7) You can verify that I am a real guy with only positive intentions here:

Anyway, I have no clue if this will connect me with the right person, but if you or anyone you know can assist me, even just by giving advice, that would be most awesome! If you prefer voice-to-voice over digital interaction, here's my number: 415-827-3945. One Bajillion thanks from me to you in this moment and the next....
With Hope and Giggles,
Dan
PS: If you have any questions for me, any at all about my life or my goals or anything else, feel free to ask. Okay? Ok!!!!
