Description
Hi! We are a family of 4: Vega (4 years old), Erika (7), Victor (47) and I, Patricia (43) . We live in a beautiful town called Manzanares el Real, in the North of Madrid. If you like hiking, climbing or simply being surrounded by nature at the same time you are close to a big city, definitely you will love our place

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
You could do lots of activities here: hiking in La Pedriza (the impressive mountain behind Manzanares El Real) . We like climbing so you could climb with us (we have rope and equipment). Yoga, meditation and other workshops are available in the town. Manzanares is 50min from Madrid, so you could visit the Spanish's capital. And there are are many places around here (a medieval castle just here, towns, parks,...) that you can visit

Help
We would like to host someone who loves children and helps us with our two daughters: taking to and picking them up from school and taking them to their activities or playground in the afternoons. They are learning English, so it would be great also if they have some English activities to help them to improve.
Languages
Languages spoken
Spanish: Fluent
English: IntermediateThis host offers a language exchange
English is the language we would like to use to communicate with the workawayer, so it would be great to have a native speaker ;-)
Accommodation
we have a private big room, with a queen size bedroom and a wardrobe. The room has a big window.
Dinners and breakfasts from Monday to Sunday are included (with the family or free). We like the workawayer feels free to cook in our kitchen in case they prefer to have a different meal or eat in a different time.
What else ...
I work as an Engineer, mainly from home. Victor is a Safety teacher but his schedules are changeable and he does not work every day
