Description
At the moment we're fully booked. We'll post more dates for 2025 as they become available.
We know this doesn't suit most people on work away but we only have the necessary time for a language exchange for one week in the school holidays.
However the week will be brilliant with loads of free time to explore this brilliant city.
We're a warm and friendly North London family. We have travelled and volunteered in other countries and speak several languages. We have made friends in many countries and are excited by this opportunity to host and meet new people. We'd love to learn Spanish and learn more about Spanish and Latin American culture.Types of help and learning opportunities
Language practiceCultural exchange and learning opportunities
We're offering the chance of living alongside a busy London family. There's always lots going on and you're welcome to be a part of our daily routine. Outside the Spanish language hours we will all be speaking English so you get to practice your English, too. You can explore the many amazing things London has to offer. We have lived here for over twenty years so can give you lots of recommendations. We think this arrangement would most likely suit someone who wants to explore the amazing city London is while being integrated in a family for a one week stay. Because we are only asking for three hours conversational Spanish there is lots of time to visit the city.

We have a guest room with a single bed, which can be turned into a double in case two guests would like to stay with us. There's room for clothes, a desk and an armchair. We live in a four storey town house in a quiet area of North London. We will share the bathroom, kitchen/dining room and launch together. We have an extensive library, which you are welcome to use so you don't need to bring a book ;)
What else ...
We are very close to New Southgate train station and not far from Arnos Grove underground. We are also close to many bus routes. We live close to many lovely parks and some local sights like Alexandra Palace. As for the rest of London: it's your oyster as they say. There is so much going on and we can point you to whichever directions you would like to go in.
