    Description

    Hello everyone! Our family is made of 5 people, but now only 3 actually live in our house (our 2 big daughters now live on their own). My name is Elena and my husband's name is Stefano. I'm a teacher and he works in the hospital. Our youngest son, Matteo, is 19 years old and is a student. We share the house with a big and funny dog, Zeus, who's always on our side. During summer we stay mostly in a farmhouse, only few miles away from the city (Trento). There we live in contact with nature, growing our own vegetables and keeping some animals (chickens, rabbits...) If you choose to share this experience with us, we will be happy to get to know your culture and your language and we hope you're going to have fun with us!

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    First of all: Italian language and lifestyle. Our house is never short of good hand made food, like pizza and many cakes! We will be happy to spend time with you, and, if you like, to show you around the city. My husband and my son are very fond of outdoor sports, so you'll have the chance to practise tennis, bike riding, hiking in the mountains and fishing.
