  Description

  We are French-Catalan family of 5 living in the french countryside. I'm 48 years old, my husband is 46, and our daughters are 15, 13 and 12 years old.
  
  We live in a very little and friendly village of 50 inhabitants.
  
  We are at 1 hour from Lyon, Geneva, Annecy. We have the TGV at 10 minutes and you can reach Paris in 2h30!
  
  The nearest ski stations are at 45 minutes / 1 hour. There are some lakes near home, the Jura department at 10 minutes, and a lot of adventure sportive activities to practice.
  
  We would really like that the children learn English with native speakers. Our idea that you play, sing, dance, hike, swim, make artistic creations, cook, make cakes and any other fun activities with the girls, but everything immersed in the english language. If you have some experience. If you like teenagers, you're a native English speaker and you can spend at least 1 month at home, don't hesitate to contact us!!!!
  
  Hope to hear from you very soon!
