Description
Our small family of three live in a beautiful and chic town specializing in cheese and Calvados just outside of Paris (direct train is about 1.5 hours). We live in the town at an old ciderie. Everything is a short walk away. And, it is possible to walk to the train station taking you to trendy Deauville in just 6 minutes for beaches, horses, restaurants, and shopping.
We have a multilingual + multinational household of English (Canadian) and French (France). Our daughter speaks primarily French but understands English. We would like our daughter to speak more English with a visitor over the summer (approximately three weeks in July). Ideally this person would be okay to switch between English and French.Types of help and learning opportunities

Travelers will become immediately integrated in French life in a very chic town just off the coast of Normandy. Our house is one of the only multilingual/multinational households. It is very much a French-speaking town - perfect place to practice French. Travelers will have unlimited access to golf and be invited to join our weekly activities and dinners. Travelers will have loads of free time to discover and enjoy the good life in France.
